I can’t believe it. I thought nothing would keep Alva quiet and now I find that neither she nor I blogged once in October!
Me, I understand. School was grueling. All new caseload. But Alva. All she has to do is hang around to help me with branding. She watches. I work. And just when she is most needed! You see right now is not a good time for me. Which I suppose, does strain Alva.
The problem is that I can’t find a PR person to work five hours a week for Alva–even at top dollar. What is it? PR people don’t care for eBooking? Or mass emailing? Well, Alva and I both think its the wave of the future–which why we have made the Jenkins Living Now Award winning novel Jolt: a rural noir available in eBook form at http://alvapressinc.com.
And that’s why Alva and I are both so excited to announce that come the turn of the year Alva Press, Inc. will also release Kristen Henderson’s wonderful book of poetry, Drum Machine in eBook as well as book form.
In other, Alva thinks that if you haven’t downloaded your copy of Jolt: a rural noir, you should do it. You see it is now available in eBook form in both ePub (for Nook) and Mobi (for Kindle) for just $11.95 shipping included at http://alvapressinc.com.
But perhaps you are an old fashioned reader like me, Roberta, and you prefer the feel of your hand on the book’s spine as you turn the pages. Well, that’s okay, too, as you can also order copies of Jolt: a rural noir in Trade Paper Back or Hard Cover at http://alvapressinc.com.
Alva, you know, is an avid reader of all the best literature. So yesterday I asked her about Jolt: a rural noir. She said it’s just too good a read to miss and hopes you’ll read it and let her know what you think. You see she follows readers comments regularly on GoodReads.com. So if you write your review there, she’ll be sure to see it. And she always gets so excited to read one. It really is a kind of special affirmation for her.
So do make Alva happy. Order your copy of Jolt: a rural noir and afterward give it your five star rating on GoodReads.com–to date everyone has. I’m sure Alva’d like that. And then maybe I’ll be able to get her to blog more. (Also, when she’s feeling up, it’s really fun at the office with her! So do it for me, too.)

Hey, Roberta, I heard you. But it’s been tough lately. The weather and all.You know.
And to tell you the truth, I’d blog some now, but I gotta check out Jolt: a rural noir on GoodReads.com–just in case there is a new critique.
Tawktayalater.
