It’s hard to believe we’re halfway through this tour. On the one hand it seems to be going fast, and on the other it feels very slow and intense. The latter is due to the sensibilities of an introverted writer. I do want people to buy and read Aransas Morning and enjoy the characters and the story as much as I do, but when it comes to promotion I feel a lot like Sam, my main character in the book: hesitant and reluctant.
So I’m pleased to have others talking about the book, and that includes the Tangled In Text blog, which today has a review. I like these words because they capture the spirit of what I was trying to do:
“This story had a group of shy, recluse, broken people coming together and relearning how to interact with others again. The characters’ backstories were incredible and clever. They meshed together beautifully and each story complemented the others.”
Read the whole review here: Tangled in Text.
Admittedly, it’s a quiet story. As I tell people, there are no car chases, no exploding buildings, no space aliens or super heroes. Just real people going through what real people go through. If you go to my Aransas Morning book page on this web site, you’ll learn that some of the story comes from my own real life.
And there will be more about that in an interview at tomorrow’s stop on the blog tour. See you then!
Sounds so good.
Sounds interesting.
Love Texas fiction ❤
