So glad we connected as friends today! Can't wait to read The Book of Maker and discussing all things bookish with you.Mackey
hi david :) long time no speak, hope all is well! Despite what tonight says I finished your book a while ago now and due to the new job and other things happening (just life in general really) I have taken a LONG hiatus from goodreads, and reading in general actually, but as you can imagine I am quite rusty on the review side of things, but I just wanted to re-assure you that I will be leaving a more in depth review within the next week just need to get back in the swing of things!Gosh I am so behind and I had hundreds of books to read, and now I am probably 6-7 months behind on anything on top of that what's been released since then, this should be fun! Anyway I hope your doing well :) and congratulations on another amazing book I never got to say how much I enjoyed it before I left!
Thanks for the friend invite, David. We do have a lot of friends in common and I see several of your books remain on my TBR. Looking forward to checking out your shelves and our future bookish discussions. I see you're reading "The Wise Man's Fear" so I hope you enjoy that one as much as the first in the series. Rothfuss is one of my favorite writes.
Happy Holidays!
I saw you are giving away a copy of Alloria! I hope I win a copy because I loved what I read so far but hate reading e-copies. Anyway, best of luck with it. Great book!
Hi David, thanks for the friend-vite. I look forward to reading your second book, Ruler's Desire and hope that we'll have some great conversations in the future :)

Hey David! Just wanted to let you know that I downloaded Alloria yesterday! I'm really looking forward to reading it! :)
You made me ROFL with the comment you sent along with your friend request. Thank you for sending one and you're very welcome :)
I'm a little busy in the middle of a new book at the moment Renata, as well as working. But I am willing to read a few pages and hopefully give you a few pointers (if needed) that you can apply throughout :-)
Hi, I hope you are well and enjoying the spring sunshine!Please could,you proof read some of my smashwords books for me they are under Rena Romanov

Hiya David! *waves* Thanks for the friend request! I agree, we TOTALLY have so much in common and I'm sure we are going to be great friends! :) I have Alloria downloaded, and it's within the next batch of five books I'm planning to read! It looks amazing and I can't wait! :D

Welcome. I'm still quite new at this, and still finding my way around. Been spending most of my time on the kindle forum, with the authors who drageed me on here. Now trying to find new friends in new places, and I liked your humour.Cheers
David #2 (Guess I'll always be that to you now) :D
