Thank you for writing Strong Like the Sea; I enjoyed it so much! Maybe you and I will “talk story” sometime, ‘cause we’re Goodreads friends!😄📚

Wow! You have a lot of friends! Are some okay for me? MMMMMOOOMMMM?!
Wendy, Thanks! You're too sweet. I don't know. You're bio is pretty cool. Slaving away on the family truck looks pretty impressive to me. I'm terrible when it comes to those sort of things. :)
Nice to meet you too.
Steph.
Steph,Your bio had me rolling. I've decided mine is entirely too straight laced. Maybe after NaNo I'll think of something a little different. The kids were most impressed by your shadow hoola-hooping too. You are one talented gal!
Nice to meet you by the by.
Wendy
Love your quotes. Thanks for the add. *Steph*

Seriously. Lots of other ly's. I loved the premise and I'd buy the book. Getting to read it early is icing on the cake. You have my email, I think.
I'm still blown away by your writing! I'm very lucky you were in my critique group. After we finish the second draft of the story would you like to be a reader?
