2016 suckiest suck of a year
Greetings
Why do I say 2016 sucked well David Bowie and Prince died. In February, on Valentine's Day, I almost died from a ruptured gall bladder and resulting septicemia kept in the hospital for the entire month. I've lost fifteen pounds, not in a good way. Finally in the month of October I have some stamina back. Add to the mix my publisher SLPG claimed to go on hiatus for a year back in 2015 only to shut down completely in 2016. So I've gotten back That's What Brother's Do: Redux,and Coupage : Book 4 of the Blood Nation Novels. As in the past, no one is interested in picking up these novels because of the darkness. I will send out a few more inquires and if there are no nibbles, I will do what I did when I started, publish it myself.
So 2016 is not my favorite year but I will survive it...oh, yes I will and you do too my Loyal and True. Kiixy out.

Well I hope book 4 of the blood nation will be released at least. I don't understand why nobody want to publish it, those books are so great!

Continue to get stronger, it takes a while after Septicemia,I'v had it so I know.Looking forward to book 4, and anything else you write. Feel better.
You have enough of a following to make self publishing work.
We missed you! I love your writing--it has a complexity to it and makes me think. I'm glad you're feeling better and am totally looking forward to 2017 now

I'm not blowing glitter up your skirt. You have a unique voice, a dedicated following, intriguing artwork--honestly, with stronger editing you could really pull in money for yourself.
I look forward to more Blood Nation.
I guess there are more people wanting to read Coupage despite the darkness than you'd think. Isn't this something you could publish trough Smashwords? They offer more dark books etc. Looking forward to reading what you'll decide.
I know this is an old post, but I've had Coupage on my list forever (and the other three Blood Nation have been reread). I hope that your health has improved so we can enjoy.
