With this exclusive chapter launch on Kindle I’m hoping to not just engage with my readers but also start a dialogue with a new set of readers and allow them to sample my narrative and hopefully excite them to join me in this journey. And it’s great that technology allows us to do this today; so am making full use of it!”
