WISB and Grasping for Wind end of year mentions

December 19th 2007 at 3:16 pm

Grasping for Wind puts Crystal Rain on their 2007 best books read list.

S.M.D puts me (blush) on the best author read for ‘07 for Ragamuffin and Crystal Rain.

Thanks to both bloggers for the kind mentions.

Also of note, blogger, book reviewer, and UC Davis UC Santa Cruz student S.M.D is looking for a room/small apt if you know of any in the area.

    Actually I’m a UC Santa Cruz student Mr. Buckell :S. Just thought I’d let you know. Kind of a different area. I’d hate someone to email me with an apartment in Davis :P.
    And you’re most welcome for the award, however worthless it might be. I’ve enjoyed reading your work and am glad to have had the chance. With all the work floating around out there it is really hard to fish through it to find good writers. Almost 300,000 books are published every year. I don’t think anyone has the time to read them all…

    It’s always nice to see people who enjoyed the books that much, no matter where they are writing it :-)

    And UC Santa Cruz, that is corrected now.

    Thanks :). I appreciate the link. Hopefully I’ll find a place soon. :)
