a year ago august 20th…

I wrote this yesterday and failed to post it:

A year ago today, at this very time, I’d been up since like 7 or 8am the previous morning (the 19th) – and had spent from 1:10am forward on the the 20th so excited I couldn’t hardly stand myself (until the exhaustion set in…At 2:13pm a year ago today, we were all sliding straight toward slap happy heaven (or is that hell?). At 2:45, they came to take Thomas downstairs, and we made a small army following the gurney into pre-op. He was in surgery from 3:30 until 9:30…The longest six hours of my life.

Hard to believe a year has gone by already.

amazon reviews

Straight from the Apex blog:

A small favor? I’d like to ask a small favor.

A little, tiny favor.

Our books, they don’t have many Amazon/B&N customer reviews. Now here’s where the favor part comes into play…

If you’ve read any of our books, do you mind writing a small review on Amazon and/or B&N for one or more of those books? And do be honest when you write the reviews. I’m not asking for 5-star handouts. Just enough reviews so that prospective buyers who are not familiar with Apex Books will know that there are people reading our books.

SO…please? I’ll throw in a funny picture of Deb Taber if you can make this happen. *sweet smile*
