Nathan, Could not resist and pulled out my card for a donation just to let you know how much I appreciate your books. Gave a donation for each book of the Shares series. Please keep writing and thankx so much.

I'm so pleased you're enjoying them. Ravenwood is a bit darker, because of the nature of the world there. It's a fantasy world and is a bit more adventuresome. I'll be interested to find out how you like it. Owner's Share should be out this spring. Cape Grace this fall. Operative word is "should" there :)

Nathan, well what can be said? You have the perfect balance in all your books from narration style to the music. I did all the share series thru to Captains 2x's and now twice thru South Coast. The attraction for me? They are good, clean, masterfully done books. No nasty language or extreme violence. Just really nice characters that I like enough to want to be like. They show respect, humility, and courage to the people around them. I really got to like Richard & Rachel - they seem to shine in each others presence and yet have their own individual strengths that they are not afraid to enforce. Your ability to narrate and your voice are both exceptional. The way you have written these stories are by far not DULL at all. Your books are very refreshing from alot of the trash I have stumbled across and had to stop listening to due to the violence and strong language or just plain negative dark story plots. And you don't have to write a book to know what is good. I am looking forward to Owners Share and Cape Grace. I have also downloaded Ravenwood and will start it tomorrow. By the way I listen at work and have gone thru all these books 2x's in about 3 weeks. I am a much nicer and happier person because of them. Can not say thank you enough.
