PUPPIES HAVE BEEN BORN!

I received my shipment of books last week and have been selling, promoting, and smiling. I have been quite successful in selling books and hope my promotions, ads, and word-of-mouth to friends and family will lead to even more sales.

Today I did my first Book Exposition which I found was a great success. It was a good agenda, the agents/publishers/printers/authors filled the day with good useful information as well as a look at their books. I sold five books which was a lot more than many other authors sold so felt blessed. The crowds at Library functions are quite small and these aren't the greatest sources of sales, but they are so willing to offer us a venue, we can't not go.

I am getting some feedback from friends who purchased the book and they tell me which stories they enjoy most. I am quite surprised by some of them--for example, one reader really enjoyed "Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair." Who would think that one would ring a bell. But the reader said she enjoyed the reaction of the sleeze bag husband when his wife and mistress got even.

I promise to make a king-size effort to keep you all in touch with those poodle puppy books and how they grow (sell)...if I don't fall flat on my face from exhaustion from all life is throwing my way.
