Noticed you liked Sanctuary, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also southern, a bit violent, and a bit dark :) I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter)in case you'd like to read more about the novel before you commit:

Grace,

Have you read as yet, Clairvoyant: The Imagined Life of Lucia Joyce : A Novel by Alison Leslie Gold? I have several of Alison's books and wanted to see your reaction. She was a friend of Miep Gies who saved Anne Frank's Diary. Alison arranged for me to meet Miep some years ago when I was in Amsterdam. One of the wonderful moments of my life. I love your profile and the quotation is wonderful.
