It is with great trepidation that I went out and set up an author page on Amazon. I know on some level, this is important. I haven't worked my way through the entire thing yet, but I've started. If you're really interested, it shouldn't take long - go ahead and peek at it ( Read more... )

I have a lot of other things I should be working on, but assuaging my personal guilt is going to step to
