Danielle Trussoni's Newsletter - June 2023
Some EXCITING NEWS here in the writing cave (the mobile writing cave that is, as I’m working from a cafe in Beacon, NY while getting ready for my book launch).
To my great surprise, my novel has been chosen as a finalist for the CBS NEW YORK Summer Book Club with Mary Calvi!! I am so excited and grateful to be chosen as a finalist, but I need you, my readers, to VOTE for my book so that it becomes the official pick.
It’s easy to vote, just follow this link: https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/essentials/clubcalvi-kicks-off-summer-reading-with-three-new-books-to-consider/
This is Mary Calvi, host of Club Calvi:
While it may seem like it’s easy to ask for your help, I will confess something to you, as a friend and reader: I have a hard time asking for favors. But I’m putting resistance aside and asking you now to please support my new book in any way you can. Whether that is a vote for the CBS Book Club or by pre ordering the or by just sending me a note of support. I’m grateful for any small thing you can do to show your support!
To show my gratitude, I’ll be giving away 25 copies of my book to readers who vote for The Puzzle Master at the above link! Just send a screenshot of your vote to me at dtrussoniassistant@gmail.com
