My Book

Hey, can we do shameless self-promotion here? I think I read someone else using the phrase, so I'm going to go for it. It's not all self-promotion, of course; it's also a great joy I can share.
I published a book early this year. It's a fantasy fiction novel entitled "As in a Mirror." If you have any taste for this genre, please order a copy and let me know what you think. I'd love to hear your comments.

It's only available online (through an internet self-publishing house): www(dot)lulu(dot)com. Search for my name (emrys tyler) and "As in a Mirror" ought to come up. If you're feeling really keen, after you read it (not before) leave a review on the Lulu website.

I post this now because I just had to do a major revision--changing one name in the text--because a character showed up in a scene where he wasn't supposed to be present. Ach! But now it's flawless until another reader finds another error. Maybe you'll be the next one!

Thanks for indulging me.

Shalom,
~emrys

Well how cool is that?

I wrote a novel last November, Emrys, as part of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month... it's on the web). I have not showed it to anyone, but I do love the title: Mermaid Prayers. It's a coming of age story of a woman who--!-- ends up a minister.

I am interested in this genre Emrys. If I am able to get the book and read it I would love to talk about it, the process and everything else.

Peace,

Pat

emrys,

How cool it is that you have written a book - when do you find the time? I can't say I am big on fantasy fiction, however I am big on reading anything written by friends. And I could use an escape right about now!

I have not written much fiction - but perhaps I can write one of those "before I read the book" reviews!

Glad to see some shameless self-promotion. If you can't do that among friends where else can you do it?

All is grace,
Nancy

Pat,

I love the title of your novel. How whimsical! If you ever decide you want to show it to someone, I promise I'd be encouraging and kind. Like practically everyone I know I have an unfinished story or two hanging around and I have great admiration for anyone who actually finishes one!

Grace and peace,
Nancy

PS Congrats on the call!
