Hi Eliza,

My name is Chris Tusa, and I'm a writer from New Orleans. My debut novel, Dirty Little Angels, is now available for pre-order from Amazon.com, and I am writing because I was hoping you might be willing to read it and post your thoughts on Amazon.com (or some of the other book review sites). If you're interested, I'd be more than willing to send you an e-book version by e-mail. Just let me know. I've included a summary of the novel below:

Dirty Little Angels
Set in the slums of New Orleans, among clusters of crack houses and abandoned buildings, Dirty Little Angels is the story of sixteen year old Hailey Trosclair. When the Trosclair family suffers a string of financial hardships and a miscarriage, Hailey finds herself looking to God to save her family. When her prayers go unanswered, Hailey puts her faith in Moses Watkins, a failed preacher and ex-con. Fascinated by Moses's lopsided view of religion, Hailey, and her brother Cyrus, begin spending time down at an abandoned bank that Moses plans to convert into a drive-through church. Gradually, though, Moses's twisted religious beliefs become increasingly more violent, and Hailey and Cyrus soon find themselves trapped in a world of danger and fear from which there may be no escape.

If you'd like to read the first chapter before you commit, feel free to visit my web site:

Thanks so much,
Chris

Hey there. I don't know what has happened, but I've tried to sign into my page multiple time and had no luck. It let me rest my password but when it did it just created a whole new account for me. So now I have two. Do you know I can delete the old one? I can sign in and out of this new one fine. Thanks!

Yeah, I've been getting to bed earlier these days. Like 1:00ish.

I must have slept funny on it the other night. I woke up in pain.

What's that supposed to mean?

Actually, I hurt my back something awful and it's hard to sleep!

Profile Information

about me:
I'm a freelance writer, wannabe novelist working on agent-induced revisions for my YA historical, a mom of a two-year-old, a wife of a 29-year-old, a transplanted South Carolinian living in the Great White North, and a borderline sociopath. Bordering enough to be annoyed by sp tendencies.
