[stylist] Update on my hubby & holiday gift suggestion

[Donna Hill]

Hi Friends,
Below is an ad for my new novel The Heart of Applebutter Hill, which I hope
you will consider giving as holiday gifts. Rich is currently being treated
for neuro-Lyme disease (in the central nervous system) with IV antibiotics.
I've lost count of how many times he's been in the hospital since July. We
think we're finally on the right track, but only time will tell.

 

My apologies for not being able to keep up with the list and meetings. I'm
pretty burned out -- my guide dog, who was a trooper all summer, is now
showing signs of stress (a Labrador who refuses to eat, for instance, is not
normal). Needless to say, I haven't done much to promote the book other than
some FB & Twitter posts & a GoodReads giveaway.

 

Hope you all have a blessed holiday season. Please take a look at this. If
anyone's read the book on Bookshare, I'd really appreciate a rating/review
on Amazon; it doesn't have to be a glowing review; a 3 for instance is
better than not having any ratings. 

Donna

Ever wish you could make sighted people get it? What would it take to create
a quantum shift in the level of low expectations and negativity? Sometimes,
fiction can do the trick.
