Not sure I'd want to again, anyway, though I certainly enjoyed it. But Raymond and I will pretty probably go down the odd time to some of the events. Are you going yourself, then? Have a great time if you are!Gerry McCulloughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063245623305522268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214299962296344382.post-76359124954475311762012-03-11T08:12:49.298+00:002012-03-11T08:12:49.298+00:00Wow that's great you've sold so many Gerry...Wow that's great you've sold so many Gerry.

Thanks Gerry for the share! I love learning about authors and love hearing their thoughts and success, great post!A.D.

When you read a book which you enjoy, you feel as if you know the writer and have lots in common with them – as if they are a real friend you could talk to. Yet, if you happen to meet them, the relationship is clearly one-sided, unless you actually get to know them as a person outside their books. Isn't it funny? But from your own point of view, you still feel that you really know them.<br />Thanks for downloading Danger Danger. I really hope you enjoy it!Gerry McCulloughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00063245623305522268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2214299962296344382.post-64326952535038623632012-03-08T16:10:57.613+00:002012-03-08T16:10:57.613+00:00Sad when a favourite writer dies.

It is a different type of relationship. I got a huge thrill from meeting June Levine some years ago having read several of her books. What a lovely lady she was. But I knew lots about her and she knew just nothing about me. So strange.<br /><br />I was thrilled to get a copy of Danger Danger during the promo. Best of luck with the sales, Gerry.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09977676093756206414noreply@blogger.com
