I absolutely love your book! I cannot wait until I have the money to purchase Book 2 of Stalking Jack the Ripper! My question is, what advice would you give me, as a future novelist?
Kerri Maniscalco
never stop writing or reading, always strive to learn and grow and work on your craft, and know that rejections are simply stepping stones on the road to publication. find your authentic voice and write what's close to your heart--don't worry about trends, but know where your work will fit into the market. everyone i know who is published kept writing more books, learning with each one until they got their "yes!" good luck! :)

Will you start a mailing list of those who want to be notified as each book is published? I'd sure like to be put on such a list if possible. By the way, the book is categorized as for "young readers." I'm 64 and I'm really looking forward to getting my hands on the book. It sounds fabulous!
