I'm writing the first draft of book 1 in my new series (new adult contemporary romance/family drama) during NaNoWriMo.

The hero's name is Rachel. Her Irish heritage plays a role in the story over time. I need your help deciding on her last name. Could you review the six options below and let me know which one is your favorite by or before Wednesday, November 10th at 6:00 pm Central Time? (I'm posting this here and on my Facebook personal page and will tally results from both.) Thank you!

-Rachel Gallagher
-Rachel Connolly

Thank you to everyone who entered the August Goodreads Giveaway for The Girl and the Raven ebook. Congratulations to the winners and happy reading!!!

It took a few chapters before I connected with this book. About halfway through--the information sucked me in. The pluses of reading Choose Yourself? The daily practices are important (most are common sense). Altucher also provides inspiration—loads of it.

The real gem of this book is that it turns you into an idea machine. If you are looking to start a business, this book will help trigger your brain to generate ideas.

To any readers/bloggers/authors: Amazon is changing the rules again. Word is quickly spreading, but not quick enough to stop reviews from disappearing. Here is a copy of info I got:
IF YOU RECEIVE ARC'S OF AUTHORS BOOKS FOR REVIEW:
Please edit your review (if it's still posted. If it was removed, please repost on Amazon with the below change.)
"Any review that states it is an ARC or given by the publisher is being removed. All you need to do is change the wording to a complimentary copy or gifted copy and the review will be restored (for now)."
Please change, "ARC is provided by author/publisher for an honest review" (or something similar) to "Complimentary copy provided by author/publisher for an honest review." or "A gifted copy was provided by author/publisher for an honest review."
Do not write ARC anywhere.
More reviews are disappearing from people's profiles.
Please pass it on to anyone who does reviews or anyone who relies on them~!!
