So, we're in the last hour and 30-or-so minutes of the contest. Disintegration is in 15th and I'm hoping we can hold onto that spot, even though it's really just symbolic; only the top-5 win anything. The rest of us are the also-rans.
But, still, if you haven't ordered yet, please do. If your wife, husband, brother, cousin, uncle, mother, father, godfather and -mother, priest, rabbi, imam, yoga instructor, fitness coach and anyone else I can't think of right now hasn't been roped in yet, rope them in! Nana needs a copy!
The contest may be ending, but there's a long road ahead. I need 700 copies sold by 12/6 and I want to make that goal. I want this book published and I'm hoping you do, too. You've invested in the book's (and therefore my) success already ... please continue by spreading the word, recruiting new supporters and getting them behind the project. That's the only way it's going to happen.
Finally, please check out the following books (my five faves), if you've any interest in supporting worthy writers who share the same dream that I do. Give them a bump before the contest ends, at 3 p.m. Eastern, 12 p.m. Pacific.
Dear friends
Just a quick and final update to thank you all for your support. The contest will be over in a couple of hours and it seems like the most likely outcome will be that I end up in 6th place. Being so close, and at the same time, so far away from the prize is going to sting. But that’s life.
If I have learned anything during my years living in this country is that everything is possible; so who knows, maybe those of you who are following me but have not ordered the book will get inspired and make a difference.
No matter what, I am thankful for this whole process. Through it I learned a lot about the author’s community, my friends and myself; all good things.
If I don’t make it to top 5, I have to think what the future of The Catcher’s Trap will be. I can tell you that one way or another I will make sure this book gets published. I believe in my work, I believe in the inspiration behind it, and I believe in the good that it can do.
That’s it!
Love you all
Have a fantastic day!
