So in Jan. of 2009 I did a blog post about a book I was reading, "The Gargoyle" by Andrew Davidson. I ranted and raved about his writing and having finished it it became my new favorite book and still is today. About 4 or 5 months ago I was scanning the "sale rack" at the library when to my absolute delight I saw a copy of it for $1! I pulled it off the shelf and nearly passed out when I saw that it was an advanced reading copy!!!! It also said "not for sale" on the cover but luckily the people at the library didn't seem to notice that! Needless to say it made my entire week, maybe month.
I've been working on promoting my book on facebook and decided it couldn't hurt to become fans of different writers and publishers, there could be a slim chance one of them will take a look at me and my book. Well, I found Andrew Davidson on there and was in awe to see that he actually interacts with his fans that talk to him on there!! That doesn't happen too often. So I sent him a message on his fan page and told him how I love his book and that it changed my own writing and that I thought it was cool that he actually talks to people. He replied that he thought he had great fans and thanks for the praise for The Gargoyle. I was tickled pink that he replied to ME and then HE added ME as a friend to his personal facebook page! Wow, cool. Anyway, just letting you know that I've talked on the web to my writing idol. Now if I could just track down Stephenie Meyer online...
