Shameless promotion

The election is over -- thank the good Lord for that -- so now y’all can concentrate wholeheartedly on Murder by the Acre … Fine, have a life. See if I care.

Except I do care. BUY MURDER BY THE ACRE!!! Go HERE or HERE and buy your copy now! I SAID NOW!!! Get them while they’re fresh! Don’t be left out! Be the first in your neighborhood! Flaunt your new shiny book! I SAID FLAUNT!!! And maybe some strutting, too.

Enough of this shameless selling, this endless nagging for you to BUY MURDER BY THE ACRE. Did I mention I need money to pay for an operation for my aged aunt? Poor auntie … sweet elderly aunt … who needs you to BUY MURDER BY THE ACRE!!!

WE INTERRUPT THESE COMMERCIAL MESSAGES FOR SOME CONTENT:

So how are you? Survived the election, I hope. Whether or not your candidates won, I hope you enjoyed being part of the process.

Hey, this is cool: Classical guitarist Peter Fletcher will perform at Ada Public Library Thursday, Nov. 13, at 6 p.m. The performance is free and open to the public. (This is the night before my book signing for Murder by the Acre.) He’s a world-class performer and has been on TV and radio. Naturally he’s won tons of awards and been featured in many music magazines. He has a couple of CDs out. Very cool that he’s coming to Ada. I’m going to be there. Join me!

I’ve been reading a very interesting book called Anticancer: A New Way of Life by David Servan-Schreiber. He espouses a nutritional approach to cancer prevention. (He supports both nutritional and medical treatments if you have cancer.) Not sure how much of this will be eventually proved by studies and research, but he makes a great case for drinking green tea, Kirsten and Michelle! It’s interesting reading whatever you might think of his conclusions.

My books arrived this afternoon! Finally I get to hold them in my hands. Publication seems nebulous until I hold the finished product. These books are for my book signing at the Ada Public Library, next Friday, Nov. 14, 4-6 p.m. I hope to see you there.

And now I'll close for the evening. You take care. Night! Oh, and BUY MURDER BY THE ACRE!

I'm glad the election is over, too. It was interesting being part of the process this time because I did so much more. I've never poll watched before, and that was really interesting. I'm not sure I would ever want to be a poll worker--there ALL DAY LONG. But I sure salute the ones who do! :)

FF, maybe a murder on election day? A curious poll work who pays the final price for his prying? A plot of another book!

One is on the the way to you, Gloria!
