Shoutout to my friends
Snowtiger was there from the very start. I don't remember how she found out I had started writing a novel, but she eagerly pitched in as my first beta reader and gave me inspiration and determination to finish. This was Sept. of 2014. She even sent me some awesome holistic stuff when I got sick. The honey was (and is) amazing. I cannot thank her enough.

UofMTigerFan read the entire manuscript, that later got divided into 2 books, in something like 3 days. All 175k words of it. Three times. His honest evaluation led to adding the first three chapters which revolutionized the whole thing. Without those chapters I probably could not have sold it.

Others read the book later and their comments helped a lot in the editing process. Tanyaskees, bossman, and others. If I did not mention you, please chime in. I'm not trying to forget anybody.

The e-reader link went live two days ago. If anyone would like info on how to order it, or just to read a blurb to see if you might like it, please drop me a DM.

Thanks again to every one of you.

Thank you! That's very generous of you, considering we have had our differences over the years. Should you have a chance to read it, I hope you find it enjoyable.

No, it's on itunes. I'm going to send you the link to the publisher, that link for itunes is at the bottom. It's on Kobo and Barnes & Noble, too.

Thanks, I'm really lucky in the publisher I got. She literally wrote the book for writers on guns and evidence. If you get a chance to read it I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Sure, thanks for asking. I'll send it, no obligation, if not for you it's all good. Do you have an ereader? The physical book pre-order links aren't up yet.
