I am not that thrilled that it is the weekend because I will be working at my out of the house job until next weekend.  I do however have a lot of Fragments this week [little thoughts not quite enough for a full post] and I enjoy reading the other Fragmenter’s Fragment’s because then mine do not seem so bad.  So if you would like to get rid of a few of your own visit the very organized and talented [she can get rid of a tricky linky] Mrs. 4444 here  http://www.halfpastkissintime.com

I am also really aggravated with either word press or google…where the heck are my followers again??  I am trying to have a contest here:(((

I also love to hang out with THE CRAZED FANS…sound interesting??  Visit them here http://theblogentourage.blogspot.com

  I started this website to share my journey to becoming a published author.  If you have not heard “BRISTOL bOYZ STOMP” is now available.  I thank you for sharing the journey with me and for all of your supportive comments along the way.  What now?

The reviews of course!!  They are in their own little folder up there, please take a look.  Most of them have been positive and I could not be more thankful.  There have however been a few that have personally attacked me.  I expected that, after all I did write a book about a bunch of bully murderers and their ignorant families.  They still sting.  I have asked amazon to take them down.  They move slow. I will not be reading anymore of them.

I had my first book signing event:)  That was tough; I was soooooo nervous but it was also exciting to see so many people that wanted to read my story.  I cannot help but think my brother is in heaven smiling.  I have a few more scheduled and YEAH…I will be traveling!!  Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Phoenix so far.  I hope if you live in any of those areas you will come by and say hello.  Keep an eye on the schedule folder up top there.

I had no idea how complicated this “book” thing was.  I just kind of thought that overnight my book would appear…well…everywhere. LOL:)  Nope does not happen like that.  First it gets [picked up hopefully] by distributors [it did] and then delivered to distributors who then take orders from…well booksellers and libraries, Walmarts and Targets and then they have to be delivered to all of those stores and the distributor runs out of books..  then of course Amazon has only 1 book left for like a week and that sounds so bad.  Then I remember how slow they are to update…oh my nerves!

Thank you for letting me get rid of those fragments! I feel so much better now.  Except for my missing followers I hope they come back soon.  Check the BIG CONTEST up there. All you have to do is go into the book trailer folder and click the links [which will take you to you tube] and leave a comment there..it is that simple!!

So; books make great gifts..just saying:)
