Hi ASparrow,

As you know, I have been offering Boomerang with a free coupon these past few weeks and the response has been very gratifying, but it has dropped off lately. I think that the biggest factor there is it is difficult to find new venues with new potential readers and those who are interested have for the most part already taken advantage in the early stages.

But I am convinced that the advantages of getting ones work in front of as many people as possible is a good thing. Of course it is rather painful to offer up for free something that as involved so much labor, so much time, and to be honest, so much sacrifice to produce. On the other hand, I know I probably wouldn't invest hard earned funds in too many authors I had never heard of, but if the blurb sounds interesting and the investment is nil, you bet I'll have a look. And if I like what I read, I'll be one of the voices spreading the word.

I hope Xenolith is getting the readership it deserves and that your writing is progressing apace!
