Please excuse me for not leaving my name. Please call me Bev. I know you do not want or need my sympathy for your trials; perhaps we can help each other find a way to give you some satisfaction concerning injustice. I know how frustrating and powerless it can make you feel. Bev

Hi Shirley: One of the ways I have been successful at getting reviews was to look at the list of top reviewers on Amazon.com, and use the friend's inquiry on Amazon.com to ask if they were interested in reviewing my book. I only contacted reviewers who had in the past done reviews on the topic of my book. I sent out about 30 requests and got 4 reviews. Hope this helps.

Best wishes,

Deborah Rummelhart

Shirley, the name of one of the dearest angels I ever met, a protector of children that were not her own. Now, I am invited to meet another, older, wiser friend of those unjustly accused and punished. My story has never been published but it begs to be told though it is complex and unbelievable. Truth is always stranger. I believe there is a reason why. People will not face it and welcome it because it is dangerous. So is a little knowledge...I DARE to speak for myself.

Hi Shirley:

I am happy to be your friend and so sorry to hear about what has happened to your family. I admire that you are taking what happened and doing something so positive. I have a couple of book marketing recommendations. The first is a book about marketing on the internet called "Plug Your Book" by Steve Weber. This is the best thing I have found, and I imagine you could find it used on internet booksites. His website is www.PlugYourBook.com. I hope this helps. Also, I was successful in getting my book reviewed at Bella Online.com. You might try them. This is a large website for women and has a number of topics with a web editor on each topic. Perhaps there is a topic relevant to your book. Please let me know if I can be of further help.

Best wishes,

Deborah Rummelhart

Hi Shirley, glad to have another friend. I am 59 writing my first book, so can't offer you a lot of advice on how to do anything, but wanted to give you encouragement to keep telling the people what is happening in our judicial system.

I suggest you see if there are internet support groups for prisoners' families. There's everything else! You can be of great help and support for them.
And be sure to post free classified ads in newspapers around the country. If public speaking is your thing, you can make many aoppearances in opposition to the death penalty. Start with The Stranger in Seattle, Washington and you should find links to others. Spread the word! www.hu.mtuledu/~hlsachs where you can find ffree stuff and fun.

Hi Shirley

It looks like you might be able to either profit by or contribute to my new Self Publishing group here on BMN.
Please take a look, we're trying to build it into a resource for writers who prefer to be their own publisher.

This country is beginning to look like third world countries. Unjust things happen to your children and love ones and you can't protest without being persecuted. Your story is very moving. I am going to buy the book.

The trailer is gripping! Great job on putting it together. Such a tragic story. Best of luck in getting your book out there! The trailer will surely help. It's very well done.
