6. Don't Tell the Moon

in Kindle/Amazon.

Full disclosure: I am the author of this chick lit novel, and of course I would love it if any ladies on this board would be interested in reading it, but recently something very strange happened with this book and I'd like to share it with you:

A publisher in Estonia contacted me. She read the Kindle version and fell in love with it, and asked if I would be willing to allow them to translate my story and sell it in paperback in Estonia. Well, long story short, I said yes, we contracted, I received an advance (in American dollars), and the printing is occurring as I write this.

But now I will need to have someone to read it to me, as I don't speak Estonian.

Odd the things that happen in life that are least expected.
