This afternoon (Tue Dec 12) Amazon has named my new book Rain Falling on Tamarind Trees the #1 New Release in Vietnam Travel Guides (paperback edition).
This came on the heel of the book last Sunday (Dec 10) hitting #1 on amazon.fr (France) among Books in English and Foreign Languages on Southeast Asia History, and #4 in Travel References.
I feel truly blessed. All this wouldn’t have been possible without the support of all my friends and readers. I appreciate it so much more than I can express in words. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
Atta boy, CL. You’ve got the rooster by the throat. Now you’re on the big track to the sky. May it go well with you. Jim
Jim, it’s so nice to hear from you. Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. They mean a lot coming from you. I’m just kind of taken aback by the whole thing, but I’ll enjoy it as long as it lasts. Thank you again.
