Great photos. Reminds me of the cabins we had in Minnesota.

Here's a recent review I just received for my newly released novel, COMA.

This suspense thriller has everything to keep readers intrigued: a witty, unconventional hero; an exciting plot that delivers non-stop action from beginning to end; a seemingly unstoppable villain; and a couple beautiful women vying to domesticate the loose cannon. This one would make an explosive movie. Think Bourne, or the Bruce Willis version of The Jackal, then multiply by ten and you’ll have an idea of what the movie version of COMA would be.

Review by Laurel Johnson/Associated with Mid West Book Review.

Hi Joylene,

Glad you got a copy of the book. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for offering the review, I'll look forward to hearing your opinion of my humble offering.

Thanks also for offering to put a link up on your blog for me. My website is www.freewebs.com/brianlp and the bok has a site at www.freewebs.com/astudyinred

I don't have seperate blog as I have so many on the Ning networks, but you could include the one here on Book Place which is http://morganmandelbooks.ning.com/profiles/blog/list?user=twmockj5fzne

Thanks a bunch, and enjoy the book.

Best regards

Brian

BTW, thanks for viewing my website and leaving a guestbook entry (you'd be surprised at how hard it is to find anything on the Internet about myself--what with sorting through all the Yeats references first). I've recently joined the AuthorsDen website and have posted the first two chapters of "I Remember Tomorrow" along with a short story from the setting of my 2nd book and one of two poems I've ever written. The address is: http://www.authorsden.com/williambutler . I'm always interested in feedback.

One last note: I've always enjoyed writing in the female POV. Having two sisters and being raised by my mother, much of it comes rather easily.

Again, be well,
William

I enjoyed New Mexico... terribly so. It's always interesting that those who live in cold climates long for warm and the reverse is also true. Raised in Los Angeles, I never felt more alive than when I was in Germany in Winter. We would wait until after midnight and go for walks in the shopping district when all of the stores were closed. With the temperature below freezing, all bundled in our winter parkas, listing and felling the snow crunch beneath our feet. Then again, the memories are probably more wonderful than the reality. Time does that to us.

Be well,
William

Thank you for the "friend" invitation. Had I been fully awake when I responded to the discussion board last night, I'd have done so. I love your photos and must admit I'm a bit envious of your environs. Even in the Northeast part of Texas, the best we can hope for in winter is a little less heat and barren trees.

Be well,
William

Hi Joylene,

This is the link for the paperback at Amazon.ca
http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1554045274/sr=1-1/qid=1205086280/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1205086280&sr=1-1&seller=

All of the others have it as well of course, and the publishers have a link to take you straight to Amazon.com if you want the paperback from http://www.double-dragon-ebooks.com/single.php?ISBN=1-55404-524-X

It is selling far better in paperback than e-book I must say.

Hope this finds you well, and I hope to see you at the Candian Authors Network soon.

Best regards

Brian

Hi Joylene,

I've heard about the post in Canada. The book is available from Amazon.ca, but it may be quicker (and cheaper) to get it from Amazon.com in the US. It's funny, I have a Canadian publisher but the book is delivered faster if ordered from the States. By the way, you might like to join me at The Candian Authors Network at http://canadianauthors.ning.com/
(I was allowed to join because of my publisher being in Canada.

Look forward to hearing from you again soon.

Best regards

Brian

Joylene,

I do hope you enjoy A Study in Red. It should keep you on the dge of your seat at the very least, I hope. Most people have said in their reviews that they found it hard to put down, so I hope it draws you in as it has so many others. I'll be interested in your thoughts on it when you've read it.

Warmest Regards

Brian

Hi Joylene,

Thanks for your congratulations. I appreciate it very much. I hope you enjoy my books if you get any of them. 'A Study in Red' is doing especially well just now. One of our dogs (we have 6 rescue dogs) is abit like that. We have to exercise Alfie on a horse's lunge line because he loves to run off and do his own thing. Mind you, we've only had a short itme and are still training him, so there's hope yet.

Best regards

Brian

MORGAN'S OWN BLOGSPOT

Come on Over

I'm over at a few other blogs today. If you get a chance, come on over to see the Christmas Decorations at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/

At http://bloodredpencil.blogspot.com/  the topic is Spoiled Milk. Ever sit down to read a good book and been disappointed?

If you haven't yet, check out the post below about the Paper War.

Thanks,
Morgan Mandel

Paper War

I've been waging a war on paper the last few days. So far, paper is winning. The more I clean up, the more of it I find. The problem is, for much of it, I feel an obligation to do a thorough examination and decide whether or not it's worth keeping.

The mailperson is my enemy. He, sometimes she, keeps leaving more paper in my mail box. I'm not talking about my Christmas cards, which I cherish, but all the other stuff dropped off for me to sort out. At times it's torture to come home and see the new pile the DH has set on the kitchen table.

I've discovered tons of magazines over a year old. They were trying to hide in a magazine holder on the side of the couch, but not doing a good job of it, since they were spilling over. Of course, I decided to check the headings on the covers to see if some of the information inside might prove valuable. Wouldn't you know it, I was right. Many articles seemed to good to give up.

I've already mentioned here before about how I also have a compulsion to print out emails that seem important to me. The result is I have lots of important pieces of paper. When there's an abundance, which is the most important? And, where's the one I really need? It is a quandary.

What about you? Is paper your enemy? Are you also waging a war against it? Who is winning?

Library Displays - See Make Mine Mystery Monday

Have you tried a library display? If you want to see mine, come on over to Make Mine Mystery on Monday.

Thanks,
Morgan

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
