Semi-finalist in Amazon's Breakthrough Novel Contest

Hi Everyone,
I'm so excited. My second novel, Three Drop Pennies made the semi-finals in Amazon's Breakthrough Novel Contest. They're having kind of an American Idol like contest for the semi-finalists. Please read the novel excerpt and join in the fun. If you post a review there's a chance to win prices.

Here's the link on the novel http://www.amazon. com/dp/B00121WE64

Also, here's more info on Amazon's contest. http://www.amazon. com/b?node=332264011

Paul,
Thanks so much for your support and encouragement. If you have time please take a peak at my excerpt of Three Drop Pennies and post a review. Amazon's got this popularity aspect to the contest that makes it a challenge. If you do so, let me know and I'll offer some insight on something of yours.

All the best,
