Last night I got a text from the mom of one of these boys, who both came to my launch on Saturday. Paula's son, A (right), is a voracious reader, she says, and it appears that their exchange student, T, is too. Paula said that the boys hadn't put the books down since buying them. T is very excited to be the first person in France to own one! . Thanks to these boys' moms for permission to share this photo. This is like music to a writer's heart. . Be sure to check out my giveaway on Facebook for a hardcover copy of The Undine's Tear and more. www.facebook.com/talenawinters.artist .

Release day for The Undine's Tear is next Tuesday, so to celebrate, I did a Facebook Live video today talking all things undine (that's UN-deen, if that word is new to you) and doing a reading of chapter 1 of the free prequel novella ebook, The Waterboy. You can find it on Facebook under Talena Winters, Author. While you're there, check out my upcoming book events! I'd love to see you at one of them, even if it's just the online Release Day event. .
