Awesome Nan,

And hey every book has its critics, look at the stuff J.K. Rowling had to put 
up with, smile.  Will be awaiting it.

  You have been so supportive and enthusiastic.. I wanted to share the news.

  My novel, "An Involuntary King: A Tale of Anglo Saxon England", is now 
available on Amazon.com!

  I am expecting a box of books this week and I already have e an envelope 
ready to put a copy in to send to Bookshare for turning into a text file and 
making available through the site.

  In the meantime, if anyone on this list wants a free PDF of the book, just 
let me know at hathorn@xxxxxxxxxxx .,

  I am so excited.. I even took the book out to dinner.  It didn't eat much.

  I have mostly great reviews.. you can see them on Amazon.  I did get one 
historical nitpicker.. my husband refers to this as "counting the rivets on the 
hull of the Titanic".  I say right up front  in the novel that the book is 
based on stories and characters I developed as a teen and that I have made an 
attempt to make the setting authentic without losing the original..  plus I 
suspect what the fellow said is just plain wrong.  No matter.. it's well told, 
if I say so myself!

  I am just so darn happy I could burst.
