Greg,
You might want to click on www.scribd.com/dloganw whereby David Welch interviews me regarding the North Korean situation in "Nuts in the North." This could be a good venue for your book to get Twitter exposure.

Hi Greg,
After my earlier message, I thought it would be nice to back your book. So I did it. My husband's book Ozoneraser is on the verge of ED and I would really appreciate, if you could find place on your shelf and keep until the end of the month.
Thank you in advance

Hi Greg,
I like your book 'Noble profession' and on my W/L for some time. I am backing it and highly starred. I am here to promote my husband's book Ozoneraser. I see you have some space on your shelf. I feel greatly honored, if you can spend some of your valuable time to read/back and rate this book (presently at rank #3 on ED).
Thank you in advance,
padmavathi

I'm always looking to help out another writer regardless of the gendre. I'm also always looking for another friend and fan.

New Orleans is a city known for romance, decadence, and excess. She is truly the city where care forgot. This maiden of the night can also keep secrets like many beautiful women. In the mists of cobblestone streets, ghosts hover in tragic dances, creatures slither away, and in the witching hour things do go bump in the night.

I crafted three tales centered around this maiden of darkness. I'd be honoured to have a reader and writer such as yourself read, review, and back my books if you like the stories, characters, and writing.

I promise I will return favour.--JL "The Devil Of Black Bayou", "The Wings of the Seraph", & "Shadow Ghosts of the Moonlight"

Hello Greg,

Hope you are well. Maybe you would like to try out my new satire, Doghouse Blues. Here is an endorsement:

I was attracted to Doghouse Blues from the pitch alone because it was so very different. There are so many budding writers out there who want to earn the same sort of money as J K Rowling by writing exactly the same kind of book and , to be frank, I am getting a bit tired of it.
This, on the other hand, struck me as being an original piece of work. The product of a lively mind and written by someone who is an excellent observer of the real world out there and who knows how to translate his observations into print. Just the right amount of dialogue, which carries the story along well.
I have not read the complete book (yet) but have dipped into it fairly freely to see if the momentum is maintained. It certainly is.
Philip John

Looking forward to reading your comments on the Doghouse Blues webpage.

All the best,

Clive

Hi Greg,

I noticed your forum thread a few days ago mentioning the interest in your 'Noble' MS. I remember it was very much a work in progress when I read it some while ago - so hope you're making big strides with it. Best of luck!

Hi Greg,

Thanks for backing "In a Cat's Eye." It is much appreciated. I see from your author's profile on amazon that you are a graduate of UNH. Me too. I graduated in '76, and studied under John Yount, Thomas Williams, and Mark Smith.

I'll be having a look at "A Noble Profession" as time allows.

Hi, there. I don't usually approach strangers and tell them what to do. But the reality is you and I appreciate much of the same in books and writting and your book looks brilliant. The reality is I will read it and I will most likely put it on my bookshelf regardless of all the quid-pro-quo shit. BUT if you would look at mine, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Synopsis:
After thousands of years acting as the female personification of evil, Lilith is suffering from burn-out. The succubus. The mother of demons, created as a "helpmeet" for the first man. She'd had a problem following orders right from the beginning. Since divorcing herself from Adam, father of humankind, she has been wandering for tens of thousands of years. Used, abused and forgotten, isolation has gotten the better of her. She is barely surviving. And really really broke. Her only friends are her lecherous older brother, Luc (short for Lucifer, the Dawn Star, ie., Satan), and John Freeman, her ex-lover, a 66-year-old lapsed priest with compulsions for booze and violent revenge on Lilith. By a series of accidental disasters, these three fundamentally flawed rejects find themselves on a noble - if also fully insane - quest to serve their God in the only way they can. Together, with lots of blood, laughter, sex, and tears, they navigate their overlapping destinies through biblical prophesy, with the biggest and baddest villains known to history. Be ready for a vulgar, lewd and gory ride.

Hi Greg,

I have looked at both of your books here. Your sense of humor reminds me of that which is in Catch-22, the book that I regard as the funniest written in the English language. My own humor is dark, sardonic wit with a sarcastic underbelly. I invite you to take a look at my first posting here, 'Toccata and Fugue.'

Hello MC/Greg.

Can I interest you in my novel, Just Making Sure? (http://www.authonomy.com/books/35363/just-making-sure/)
You can read it as a dark comedy – the characters are full of the human frailties, malice and backstabbing, delusion and manipulation, but also loyalty and affection. Or you can read it as a mystery – What’s behind the death of a customer in the salon? Will events culminate in further deaths?
I’d value your comments and I return reads.
Cheers,
Michael (Felix Bradninch: Just Making Sure).

Hey there, Greg. My investigative piece ‘THE CASE OF THE DROWNING MEN: Investigating the Smiley Face Serial Murder Theory’ will be featured this month in Crime Magazine, a leading resource for followers of true crime. I’ve also previewed it on Authonomy this week. You up for solving some murders…?

(And if you hate the book, then please consider backing the other truly excellent ones on my shelf—tons of talented writers on this site who could really use some extra support!)

Kind regards to you, and best wishes—
E.R.

Hi McLevin,
"Notes on an Orange Burial was picked up by a publisher"--did this have anything to do with being on Authonomy? How high did Notes get before it was picked up by a publisher?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi
Please, would you kindly review my book called ‘‘Animals In Paradise’’?. I am a young writer who is dreaming to become an Author. Please, I really need you to help me out with a comment, stars rating and if you would kindly back my book. I know you may be a busy type or may have other books that you want to attend to. Please kindly read only one or two chapters of my book and help me out. I would quickly return read to you. But I love to rate book that I love six stars.
Please I need your stars rating.
Thanks.

Hello Mr. Levin,

In the past you were kind enough to back “An Unfinished Innocence”. It is currently ranked around #10. I appreciate your previous support and hope you might be kind enough to help me in the final stretch by providing further backing or stars.

Thank you for being a good reader!

All the best,
-j.l. wood-miller
