There I am at # 3 and #5 for the month of April for Amber Quill. Not too shabby. I’m particularly happy with Only For Him getting #3 considering it came out only the last two weeks of April.

Didn’t do a whole lot over the weekend. Wrote a maybe three paragraphs on The Beach House, even less on Twice in a Lifetime (one paragraph), and worked a bit on a medieval fantasy novel.

Just a Little Something...

I don't generally post reviews here. I usually include the best snippets under "reviews of Shawn's work" on my website. But I decided to post this today for a couple of reasons. The first reason is, I think a little cheering up is in order, and the second is, this is my first "5 Star Recommended Read" from Fallen Angels Reviews. Pretty cool.
