First reader feedback!

This is from Christine W., who is a technical editor (she said i could use her name); she read the HoK-published novel:

"I finished reading Scar Flowers this weekend. What an amazing book! The whole movie world and S&M world … I couldn't put it down. Really fascinating characters, great tension, and fabulous writing. You're especially good at describing sensations in ways that aren't cliché—very hard, I think! And sex scenes! I think those are the hardest to write, and you've got so many. I'm surprised this didn't find a publisher. I realize it would not be, perhaps, the most mainstream publisher, but I would think it would find a home. You're really such a good writer and brave, too. I'm glad you self-published it. This novel should be read. I'd love to hear what inspired you to write those characters and about your research. What is your second novel about?"

Thanks, Christine! [I'm not through drafting the second novel, but I can say that it's funny and involves the occult. and circuses]
