New Website is Up!

My new website, though simple, is up and running. It is a more thorough and yet easily navigable storefront than Goodreads or Amazon, so please give it a look and I hope you find something that appeals to you!

It was created with Tertulia, a website maker recent made public and designed exclusively for authors. Major kudos to them.
