A Delightful Surprise

Posted on November 1, 2017 by russtowne

This recent comment made my day:

“Russ, I went on goodreads today as they are voting for best books of 2017 and I nominated and voted for Flora Belle and Dreami Dragon. You may want to post to ask your readers to vote for you! Hope you don’t mind I nominated you! 🙂”

Thank you, Misifusa! I’m grateful for your nomination! She went on to say:

“Put the word out Russ so you can get more votes on your amazing books!”

Now that’s what I call a couple of day-making comments!

Dear readers and friends: I’d greatly appreciate any nominations and/or reviews of my books on Amazon, Goodreads, or elsewhere that you are inspired to do.

Thank you!

With Love,

Russ
