To all my online friends - thanks!! Yesterday was overwhelming.
Special thanks to my hosts yesterday, Hollywood Spy and Speculative Book Review!!
And today's stops are really special! I'm at Mystery Writing is Murder, talking about the importance of test readers, and at The Non-Review reviewing my own book. (Yeah, that was tough!)
Congratulations to Piedmont Writer who won a copy of CassaStar at Scribbler to Scribe. Don't forget my CONTEST runs until the end of the month! Comment on the contest page and one other stop in my virtual tour.
My deepest thanks and appreciation to all who posted my release yesterday and to those who commented on those and my tour host sites. I was overwhelmed!! You guys rock. When you have a book release or other big news, I want to do the same for you. (Talli, got you covered on December 1!)
Thanks everyone for making the day awesome!

Hi Alex.... congrats on the release of your book. I wish both you and the book loads of success. Most of the blogs I visited yesterday mentioned your book. You have lots of friends in blogosphere. Though I live far away (in India) I could still feel the excitement all the way here.
All the best. :)
