A hearty and heartfelt thank you to Ms. Sean C. Wright — AKA Seanarchy; AKA Lady Rougepen (cool AKAs) — for her recent review of my latest novel THE GOOD KILL.
You may remember Sean from her recent win of a little flash fiction contest I held a while back. For her literary prowess, she was awarded a copy of The Good Kill signed my yours truly. I may have included a haiku along with it… can’t recall for certain.

I’m so glad you keep getting reviews for your latest book. You deserve all the accolades for such a gritty, entertaining book. Sean does a great job on her review. I may have to pick up flash fiction again. I wrote my first as a pre-teen called…. Ode to a Kleenex. Hahaha. Haven’t thought of that in decades.
