Outbound Train releases today !
Being an author
means you’ve signed up to be vulnerable. You’ve laid out your soul for all
to read. Being an author means the public’s initial perception of your work
can make or break something you’ve invested years of your life into. Being
an author also means some readers will adore your work, others will use
their platform to voice their displeasure. And perhaps that is why authors
worry, because from inspiration to final edits we have been in control. But
as the ink dries on publication day and a book baby is born, an author has
mixed emotions: so much love and hope mingle with the feeling of complete
helplessness.
And so my friends, I give you Outbound Train, my book baby. I pray you will
scatter her like petals in the wind. I pray you will experience life in my
hometown from my eyes, and that you will gift me with the kindness of a
book review. A book review will make or break Outbound Train. I hope you
will tell your friends, your librarian and the neighbor across the street.
For in these uncertain times I still believe that words matter and I need
you more than you shall ever know.
With sincere appreciation.
Be well and safe during these uncertain times.
