My book came out at the end of January, but hardly anybody noticed. I could not have been more embarrassed. You think, Well, that's how it goes, and  cry yourself to sleep for a few months (okay, eleven [so far]), but then somebody, thankfully, mentions your book at the end of a newspaper article on books that fell through the cracks, which perfectly describes what happened to your sad little book. I always suspected that the St. Petersburg Times was a great newspaper, but now I know for sure.
