I was very much flabbergasted, overawed,speechless and astounded at the speed of your postal service.
I noticed you have several novels by F.Scott Fitzgerald. I take it you are fond of this author? I plan to make an effort to read more of these classic works this year and I do have The Great Gatsby on my tbr as well as A Farewell to Arms by Hemmingway. I have just read Revolutionary Road by Richard Yates and I now want to read everything he wrote.
Thanks again for sending your book.
Have a great day

I was told I was in the Early Reviewer batch for your book Rocket Man that a copy would be forthcoming from the October batch and as it is mid January I was wondering if I may have missed out. I am in Australia.

I posted my review on both Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Thank you for the Early Reviewer copy. It was a pleasure to read "Rocket Man." I loved your dialogue. Happy New Year and Good Luck.

May this holiday season inspire one and all to elevate their souls to greater things. May we all sip lifes sweet moments as we celebrate the coming of the New Year for with it comes the hope for a brighter tomorrow.
I thank all who have touched my life this past year , for friendships and acts of kindness are the nectar that nurtures ones spirit and sustains ones soul. Know that your kindness has allowed my inner self to swim in an ocean of light. The singing of your heart has resonated positively with me and inspired me to greet each day with brilliance.
My wish is for the New Year to bring all who read this peace , love and harmony. May you create a path of light where earthly treasures abound and may you awaken to your true purpose as you open your soul to a new world of guiding wisdom. The greatest gift you can give during the holidays is a warm smile , a loving embrace and an outstretched hand. Share those things not only with loved ones but with all humankind and together we can make the New Year one of bliss , beauty and love profound.
