However, it has stood me in good stead. Google me and the entire first 5 pages are links to ME. (note: I am not the Kelowna gynocologist who appears on page 6)<br />You are so right, Stephen H.

It's those lovely people who prove to be a novice novelist best customers.Eileen Schuh:https://www.blogger.com/profile/08239393851824941591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932376865726081805.post-27898805372260579912011-11-23T18:52:22.532-05:002011-11-23T18:52:22.532-05:00Too funny!

It's bad enough having the same first name (quite a few of my peers shared that they thought it would be hilarious, if I ran for prom queen, so that they could toss pig's blood on me). All you can do is hope that it helps, rather than hinders in marketing your books!Carrie Green, www.CarrieGreenBooks.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17019515983341692127noreply@blogger.com
