Hello, dearest Charlotte. I was taking a gander through the various topics on the WordPress page and came upon your jolly space here on the Internet.
I’m an author and I published my latest book last week and I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing it. It’s set in the Warsaw Ghetto during WWII and I can either provide you with the ebook files if you have an ereader, or I can send you a paperback copy. Digital has the advantage of being faster and cheaper, but I’m willing to brave the lottery that is the weather and Royal Mail if you are.
I had a look at your Facebook page and that is a lovely flower in your hair. Did you grow it yourself? (the flower that is, not your hair)
Hi Michael, nice to hear from you!
I’d definitely be happy to review your book for you. I have a Kindle so ebook files are fine; my email address is on my Facebook page if you need it. (Thanks- unfortunately the flower is no longer around!)
Hurrah! I’ve just emailed you.
If I see your name popping up on Candy Crush Saga, I’ll be sure to send you an extra life or two.
Hello again, Charlotte.
I’m still an author and I published my latest book yesterday, and I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing it. It’s set during WWII (again) but this time it’s about a small group of British soldiers in France. It includes different perspectives on the war and also touches on the less well-known roles that women had during the conflict.
Assuming you’ve still got your Kindle, I can whisk the file over to you again by email.
That pondering moose looks fabulous in his red scarf by the way.
Hi! I’ve got a lot to read at the moment but could do it in a month or two if you don’t mind it waiting.
The moose sends his thanks!
Yup, that’s fine by me. I spent months writing and editing it, so another two isn’t a problem at all.
I’ve got a handy little site you can download it from as well – http://www.mcargill.webspace.virginmedia.com/eatmybooks/tasty.htm
Cool I’ll let you know when I get to it – good luck with it in the meantime!
