Defying the digital age with a debut novel might seem a challenging task, but I do believe there are far more readers out there than headlines indicate, and I am delighted that so many of them are reaching for mine. Crazy String got her launch party and readers came through with support and encouragement, so big thanks is due, especially to those who are reading my novel while the baby naps, or before they head to work, or after giving feedback on a pile of student essays, or instead of all the distractions found on their many screens.
