The official publication day for Beautiful Affliction is finally here!
Today my book is released in bookstores all over the US! Amazon and other online booksellers started shipping the book three weeks ago, and I have been getting so many messages, pictures, favorite quotes, questions about the book, early reviews and offers to participate in interviews, that I have been kept up at night occupied with the labor of love answering all this!
Somehow I had imagined that my book would be released like a drop into the ocean, with a small PLOP and a few rings on the surface; never, ever could I have imagined the overwhelmingly warm reception my book is getting!
Only last week Beautiful Affliction was included in YourTango’s list: “11 Incredible Books Every Smart Woman Should Read This Fall“, alongside literary giants Elizabeth Gilbert, Margaret Atwood and Cheryl Strayed! What an honor!
I am continuously updating the Page called “NEWS” here on my website, found above on the main bar, where you can find more news as they come in.
