The other reason I'm so delighted about this book - it is largely about my father and is very personal to me. Sure, this book is fiction - but the parts about my father are all largely true. I received a call that he was in heart failure and they only gave him a 5% chance to make it through. It was an extremely emotional time for me as I am very close to my family - those few weeks were both the best and worst of my life for so many reasons. The fact that I get to share that emotional rollercoaster with you means so very much to me.
Again, thank you for all of your support throughout this process - I am just as touched hearing from close friends and family members as I am hearing from total strangers who've read/enjoyed this book. Whoever you are, reading this right now, supporting my work - it means the world to me.
Much love,
Randileigh
(PS - yes, this blog/website is going to be inundated with book promotion ditties over the next couple weeks... sorry! But I promise to throw some other stuff in the mix as well.... :)
