Darrin,
I really enjoyed the program at Bethel today. I am looking forward to reading both “Revenge” and “Girl” but am trying to determine which one to start with! They both appear to be great reads, so I will probably start on one while my husband Lee reads the other. Thank you for the information and encouragement you provided. I think it will come in quite handy for Lee! (And who knows, I may delve into writing more myself now.)
Looking forward to starting two great new journeys, Amy Smiley
Thanks for your comment, Amy. It was a great turnout at the reading, and the audience questions were outstanding! I guess I would say start with REVENGE, if for no other reason than because it’s my first. It also may be a slightly more “accessible” book than GIRL, but then again, it probably depends on who you ask.
Thanks for the link to Lee’s writing. I’ll definitely take a look as soon as I have a chance — looking forward to it.

P.S. You can check out some of Lee’s writing on his blog: http://leesmiley.livejournal.com/
I’m a little biased, but he’s got some great stuff on there!
