The rest of the news today may be awful (which I will post about later), but there’s always some good news somewhere. This morning, the copy editor I work with at my publisher emailed me to tell me that the First Edition of “Going Downtown” has sold out. The publisher is really happy, since the book was only released in May. As a result, they are going to do a second edition hardback print run. That’s never happened to one of my books before, and doesn’t often happen to books in my “genre.”
Fantastic, TC! Sometimes exercises in therapy for us turn out to help others also. I gave my husband “I Will Run Wild” for Father’s Day. He’s a fan of military history, and I was sure your book would interest him. I was right! I love it when that happens. I also appreciate being able to read and respond to such a concise, cogent writer. I sure appreciate the pithy comments you post on LFAA. Keep on keeping on.
I just ordered "Going Downtown", "Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club","I Will Run Wild",Tidal Wave", and "Pacific Thunder". I haven't been reading a lot of books since my vision got so fucked up after cataract surgery. Maybe this will be the prod that I need to go back to the eye Dr. again. I used to read 5 books at a time, I find it hard to read one now. My uncle was at Rabul so maybe I should get that as well.

We are so proud of you. But more importantly, you must be so very proud of yourself!
Cheers, TC!
