Rumblings of self-promotion

The Lipless Gods is the third novel I've written, or, finished; I'd be more apt to anoint it in those terms. 

I like to think of writing in terms of finished or not-finished. If you added up all the unfinished projects, then I'd be somewhere around 10 or so novels.  And if you counted the 2 versions of Lucid, I've finished 4 novels (the less said of novel number one, The Colonists, the better).

TLG is a crime novel.  A rural setting.  A big city mob gunman beaten and abandoned and blackmailed into helping a kid desperately seeking a vanished classmate.

Lucid went out to 100+ agents; no one bit.  TLG went out to roundabout 90.  3 agents gave it the sniff test.  1 agent is still sniffing.  In the interim, I'm all geared up to go the Smashwords route.
