Thanks to all of you who have read The Directorate! And a special shout-out to those who not only read, but also reviewed and provided helpful feedback, right down to notifying me about typos. (Which should now be fixed, BTW) Patrick, Carrie, Mark… I’m incredibly lucky to have readers who are so supportive of my work. Thank you!

You’re very welcome. Thank you for the thank you! I enjoyed your book a great deal.
As I have enjoyed yours. And less than two months to go until “The Bone Curse” releases–exciting!
Yes, the clock’s ticking, for sure. 😁
Thank you for the shout out. Having only recently “met” you via Twitter and your blog, I wasn’t sure whether I should bring them up, not knowing what your response would be. That seems silly now and it probably seems silly that I would worry about that. But a few years ago, I made similar comments to a couple of other self-published writers I’d “met” through blogging and the responses I got were less than positive. I am grateful that you took my comments as they were meant — to assist you.
Huh. I wonder why anyone would be upset by that. Seems like any author should be thrilled that someone cared enough to not only read their work, but take the trouble to tell them how to improve it.
