I’m so excited that my novella, Christmas Carol , launches globally this week! But since I’ve had a complete scheduling fail, I'm hoping to get by with a little help from my friends :-)  We've accidentally chosen this Thursday, 48 hours before my wedding, for the official launch (I know, I know), and with 120 people coming from all corners of the world tomorrow, I'm afraid I might not have as much time as I'd like to be on FB/twitter. If you’ve got a moment to post a quick Facebook or twitter link to Christmas Carol any time this week, or just RT/share a post, that’d be great.  Amazon UK:  http://amzn.to/15SFTd9 Amazon US: http://amzn.to/1gZnuO8
