Are you friggin' kidding me?! I just realized my page jumped to 100+1 likes in a very short time. Some of you may be asking, "so what?" This is amazing, because first of all, I don't even have 100 friends on my personal FB, lol, and secondly, 90% of the likes are from people who don't know me personally. They've found their way here from either the 10% who DO know me and "shared," or my newfound knowledge of GoodReads, Twitter and Bublish, or my friends on several FB groups pages (can check those out under MY likes). I thank you for the many full-star reviews on Amazon, GoodReads and even one on B&N for my book: Let Me Go... And the private messages from readers as well as mentions/kind words on personal Facebook pages. Thank you for buying and reading my book! I've seen rankings from all the way down past the million mark at the staring gate (not good) up to the 30k mark starting with no fans, followers or paid advertising, which I'm told is excellent for a debut author. I've met so many people (now friends) online that can personally relate to something in my book--I get a lot of "wow's" and "couldn't put it down's"--you all have given me a new lease on life; something to look forward to, and feel good about with myself. If you haven't read Let Me Go and are still sticking around, thank you! I have another fiction series coming up soon in a cross-over genre about SHTF/PA, with the same characters. If you like that kind of thing, you'll know what that acronym means, lol (it's another passion of mine). If you have read Let Me Go, and want to read more about Gabby, Olivia and Emma, the new Let Me Go book, Captured Again, Book 2 of the series, should be out in a few months (or less). Either way, for information on either series please be sure to add your email to the little email envelope app at the top of the page. No one else can see it, it won't be shared and you will only be notified about MY books.. and be given any sale promo's before the public. Plus, I'd love to see who my first 101 likes were and remember you all for giving me my start. That email list is the only way I know who you are, as this page doesn't let me see more than 5 or so... Weird thing that FB keeps our own 'likes' or 'fans' a secret from us? Maybe so we don't spam you?! I promise I won't--if I do, you can drop me like a hot rock!

~Also, if you sent me a private msg about my book, please consider adding a short review on Amazon and/or GoodReads... It helps get my book visible! And you can choose 'anonymous' as your posting name. If you don't--thank you anyway for your kind words sent privately

Btw, if any of my posts bore you or offend you, I apologize; there will be some excerpts from both books coming up soon... Maybe give you a taste of whats in the book, if you don't already know.

Thanks again for getting me over 100--I don't think I'll sleep a wink tonight, I'm so excited!
