Greetings and Salutations -

First, I am working on the issues we have with mail systems blocking our email. I'm thinking that our automatic forum alerts of "new message posted" are annoying some members and, when they complain, our whole site gets blocked. I'm considering just turning those forum alerts off. Forum traffic has gone down quite a lot in the past few years and the alerts may not be worth the hassle we're getting. I'll keep you up to date with the progress.

Second, my online book launch for book 5 in my Sutton Massachusetts Mystery Series, Elm Espionage, is taking place TONIGHT Monday 9/25 starting at 8pm EST. (about 2 hours away).

I’ve been so busy with everything else that I haven’t promoted this party much. So it could be just me in there. If you can stop by to chat with me, so I’m not all alone, that would be lovely! I have prizes to give away and it'd be nice if at least I had someone to give them to.

The event is wholly online here on Facebook –

It’s an online chat in the discussion thread there. There will be games, prizes, and more.

While this particular one may be quiet due to my lack of promotion, in general a book launch party is a great way to drum up interest for the launch of a book, new product, or pretty much anything else. If you can come by you can see how it works and ask questions as we go.

If you can't make it, I'll work on putting together a free book for you guys in the coming day, once I get screenshots from this party.

Have a great evening!

Sincerely,


Lisa Shea, owner
