Why Do I Love Thee?


How silly can it be. I just love Alva the Indie–so definitely over the edge. Can’t figure out if she talks to me or I talk to her and I’m just talking to myself–all of which gives one a certain sense of freedom. I mean, think of it: On a dime, in mid-sentence I change my point of view, reconsider, revamp, and comment on myself or is it me? Or is it Alva Press? Or is it Alva the Indie? Or Roberta M. Roy, that well-known publisher and 2011 Living Now Awards Medalist in Inspirational fiction and author of Jolt: a rural noir?

Today I have chosen to be Alva Press, Inc., and here’s the reason. We need a heart-to-heart. Why? Well, you see, things here are at a standstill.

After Alva’s links were broken, readership went down and while it is gradually rebuilding it is nowhere where it used to be. Also Roy is overextended now that the school year has begun–and with a nearly all new caseload. Takes too much energy to write and keep up with her blogs and also do all the things that Alva needs done–like tell everyone that Jolt: a rural noir is now available as an eBook at http://alvapressinc.com.

Yup, truth to be told, at this time Alva Press, Inc., is a pretty much one woman operation and while readers are beginning to comment positively about Jolt: a rural noir in places like GoodReads, not much else is really happening.

Just wanted to give you a heads up on the current state of affairs and to ask you if there is anything you can think of to help–like buy or recommend Jolt: a rural noir, Alva Press, Inc. and I would really appreciate it.

Gotta go now. Roy’s calling.
