Accountable to None

My first introduction to Ms Ashley Fontainne was at her Goodreads author page. I had just finished watching the trailer for her novel Accountable to None. Immediately, I left her a message. Being someone who has wanted to make a trailer for my own book, I felt compelled to let Ms Fontainne know that I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. Each frame was a chapter describing a book that I would be interested in reading. Accountable to None is a story of a woman who takes five years of her life planning her revenge on those who have brutalized her or let it happen. In the process, Audra discovers others who have suffered at the hands of the powerful and greedy, partners of Winscott & Associates and finds herself avenging them as well.

I downloaded a sample of Accountable to None and soon afterwards, learned that Ms Ashley Fontainne was giving away copies of the novel at The Kindle and Me; a blog hosted by Anjana Vasan. A couple of days after I registered to win, I received an e-mail announcing that I had won a signed copy. This was great, for I had finished the sample and was prepared to purchase the full copy. Not only that but upon winning a copy, I came to realize that I was meant to read this book.

Accountable to None was everything I had hoped it would be and more. It was compelling and entertaining. There were moments in the book that touched me. Moments that would put a lump in a lesser man’s throat. Who am I kidding? I damn near reached for the Kleenex a couple of times. And then the ending, this is where that fifth star comes into my rating of this story. I will not give it away, I can only say that it was quite fun and delicious.

Between the trailer she produced for the story and the story itself, it is clear that Ms Ashley Fontainne is nothing less than talented. I expect that we will be hearing from Ms Fontainne quite a bit in the future. I for one am looking forward to it.

Accountable to None has earned my five-star rating!

Hello Blog, Old Friends, and New Friends.

Hey there blog. How have you been. I know I’ve neglected you a bit lately, only showing up to post a link to a quick video that I thought might satisfy you till I found the time to post something meaningful. The only excuse I have is that I’ve been busy. I’ve been working hard at my job and on this story I’ve been writing. I’ve also been pushing the first book I wrote in hopes that one day people will get to read it and maybe even enjoy it. I have to say, that in the process, I have met a lot of good people. The communities of writers, authors and readers out there are fantastic and have been very supportive.

The last couple of years have been rough to say the least. With an accident at work that about killed me and another that crushed one of my fingers, I sometimes find it difficult to go in and work without fear of what is going to happen next. Family, friends, coworkers and those who I have met online here recently, in many ways have helped me to continue.

So, my Blog, it is my hope that the coming year will bring you and I closer. Perhaps when I get my bearings straight we can spend more time together and return some of the help and support that has been given to me here recently. Perhaps together we can continue to show videos of what we are listening to while moving forward with real purpose.
