As we steam towards the end of this year tonight and the start of the New Year tomorrow I'd like to say Thank You to the many people who've helped me be a successful independent writer this year. I will always thank my parents first for their love, support, and raising me with the idea that I could achieve anything I wanted to if I put my mind to it. And my mom is always the last one who reads my books before they go out to print because she was the first one to call me when she found errors in my first book, so as thanks for that I make sure my books have the MOM seal of approval before they're printed. I need to thank Beverly for supporting me through all the turbulence of my chaotic existence. I'd like to thank April Heath Pastis and H & P Publications for helping me get my books formatted and published correctly. I'd like to thank Sharon Stevenson for being the first fellow author I made a connection with, I've greatly enjoyed all of her books, her advice, her reviews, and look forward to everything she'll be writing in the new year. I'd like to thank David Weeks and Independent Book Promoter who provide one of the best best advertising services than any independent author will ever find. I'd like to thank Stevens Long for his editing prowess in taking my wildly written books and refining them into the finished products that so many readers have enjoyed. I'd like to thank fellow independent author Ken Pelham, who I made a connection to through Goodreads, I've enjoyed his books, conversations with him, and his reviews, and look forward to reading more from him. I want to thank Deena Rae from E-Book Builders for doing an interview with me and highlighted me during their Rocktober celebration, I really appreciate your support and respect the support and advice that you give to all independent authors. I'd like to thank Amazon for providing an easy to access platform through which independent authors like myself can get out work out to the public. I'd like to thank Twitter and all my followers there for being able to Tweet, Re-Tweet, and find new potential reader for my book, authors for me to read, and finding a great amount of articles to read and enjoy. I'd like to thank Goodreads because it provides the perfect platform for authors to find readers, readers to find authors, and its' a great place to find people to talk to about books.

Lastly...

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY!

I'd like to thank each and every person that picked up a copy of any one of my books! Writers don't work without readers, so I appreciate each and every one of you who took the time to find my books, read them, and hopefully enjoy them. I hope that I'm writing books that you can really enjoy reading, because I really enjoy writing them.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! AND THANK YOU!
