How am I suppose to catch up on your work when you keep puting these books out so fast? lol jk. Good luck with ONE CLEAN SHOT, and as for Spring Break... yea, I don't know if it's the pace of life, or what but Springs do seem to come by faster than they use to.Sean V.

Now I have two options. Either I praise (putting on a pedestal kind of praise) your book or give you my honest opinion. This might sound a bit clichéd. But I am no writer, atleast not a published one yet, so could not figure out another way of expressing my thoughts. Anyways, I guess I will go with the latter. <BR/><BR/>Just three bullet points really: <BR/>- The book could hold my attention throughout. I guess this the biggest compliment one can give to a writer, isn't it? <BR/>- You were able to develop the character of your protagonist really well. That is true for most of the other characters. <BR/>- Now comes something that can be classified as not-a-compliment. In one of you blogs you have mentioned that you are an 'outliner'. Maybe when you wrote this novel, you were in the process of becoming an outliner. So unlike an accomplished outliner, you were not able to tie all the plots together in the end. Maybe you did the crash course in 'tying plots for dummies' and have improved in the subsequent novels. But just to do some damage control here, I thought all your sub-plots were pretty interesting in isolation.<BR/><BR/>One thing you can be assured of though. You have certainly bagged one more fan for yourself (that’s me). Although mine may not be the first name that you would pen down in the list of 'famous fans of Danielle Girard', but you can be assured that you would be one of the authors I would be recommending to a lot of people thereby increasing the sales of your books and thereby...well I need not tell everything to a Math enthusiast.<BR/><BR/>Have a great time with your family and I look forward to reading your new book as well as catch up with your past work.Rohit Gorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08501512706381161603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15432056.post-1142222049948534012006-03-12T20:54:00.000-07:002006-03-12T20:54:00.000-07:00Thank you for keeping us posted.
