Was just browsing through goodreads,
Like, minutes ago.
And I came across a review of Net Present Value of Life
I thought I’d share it with you.

In good company
This is kinda cool.
My book’s number 29.
On goodreads.
It’s number 29 on the list of Books with The Best Female Lead Characters.
I’m in good company too.
Stieg Larson’s The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo is 24th
Lewis Carroll’s got 27th nailed down with Through the Looking Glass,
And Jane Austin’s Emma is right behind me.
Yeah, I know,
The steely-eyed and the analytical amongst you will quickly observe that,
It doesn’t take a lot of votes to move up the list.
But still.
New and, comparably, little-known authors—like me—must take our pleasures wherever (and however) we find them.
All to say that,
If you did read my book (and liked it),
How ‘bout giving it a boost?
Just sign up on goodreads, then click here to cast your vote.
You’ll give a new author some much-needed exposure,
And feel like a million bucks (well you know, I do write fiction!)
Thank you.

From a reader
Do you love what you do?
Would you continue even if no one noticed?
I know I would.
However,
It is rewarding and uplifting when someone does notice—and then takes time to post a comment;
Oh, and don’t forget.
Because of a goodreads.com promotion, you can buy The Net Present Value of Life at a 30% discount.
But only until June 30.
Here’s the link.

Anno uno
Imagine that.
June 8, 2009—one year ago—was the day I uploaded my first blogpost.
It’s an anniversary—a birthday, in fact.
Imagine that.
Twelve months go by and, aside from being older, what’s changed?
I’ve changed—I think.
Or at least, my outlook has.
Look, I can ramble on—illustrate and itemize all the things blogging’s taught me.
But the mood I’m in, it’ll probably sound trite.
And that’s not really want I want to say anyway.
Let me; therefore, get to the point—get to what I want to tell you.
Thank you.
Thank you for reading my blog.
Thank you for taking time to comment.
Thank you for sharing ideas.
Thank you for supporting me and my book project.
Thank you for going the extra step and connecting on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and all those other social gizmos.
Thank you for teaching me, enlightening me, encouraging me, inspiring me, befriending me.
And that one there, that last one.
I think that is the sentiment worth repeating.
Thank you for your friendship.
