5 stars for Shizzle, Inc!

I’ve been waiting for this milestone with bated breath – first independent review on Amazon.  Imagine the surprise of waking up to five gold stars:

The reviewer read the book in one night and “never laughed so hard in my life.” I’ve never squealed so much in my life 🙂 Can’t stop reading and re-reading it 🙂 Thank you so much, Dear Reader.

Have a great weekend, everyone. I gotta go read the review. Just this one last time…

    Why do we write? Certainly because we love it. Maybe a bigger reason is hoping our readers enjoy reading what we labored to create. I’m with you, its a rush finding out how much someone else enjoyed it.

    Congratulations!
    I guess it is experiences like these that make us nerds with pens feel like what we do really means something. I hope you receive many such reviews. Enjoy!

    I rated it what I thought it deserved. It was a hell of a good read and kept me reading it until I finished it at midnight! But I couldn’t put it DOWN!!!!

    Your first review and it was five stars!!!!!! How fantastic!!!! I hope you get all five star reviews. You deserve it after all your hard work. Now nose back to the ol’ grind stone…….Ha,ha. I also posted about your book on a couple of Facebook sites of some very cool big name stars I follow since other people do it I thought why not? Hope it gets you lots of new readers. Good luck! Saw the numbers way up in top 100. Way to go!!!

    I’ve been following your blog and progress since you stumbled across my little rambling corner, and had just been bemoaning my lack of funds to pick up a copy when you announced a free promotional offer. Congrats and best wishes for the future, and thank you for your generosity as well. I’m only one chapter in, but I’m enjoying it!

    Congratulations! The first book and the first good review are truly “once in a lifetime” experiences. (Unlike many other so-called “once in a lifetime” things.)

    Congrats, Ana. I had a reader once comment that my writing was tighter than Kim Novak’s face. It was a week before I could stop smiling.

    I’ll definitely check out your book once I have a chance. You seem to have a very likeable sense of humor. I’m also looking into how to market my writing so I look forward to reading about your experience.
