Happy birthday, book! Hard to believe it’s been a year since the release. So much has happened. Great reviews on Amazon, Goodreads, and elsewhere. You found a home in libraries and homes. You were stocked in stores throughout the US. Let’s see what year two brings.
If you have been a follower of this blog for a while and are interested in becoming an advance reviewer for the release of my new middle grade novel, DOWN THE TREACLE WELL, please send me a message via himalayaspencerellis(at)yahoo.com. Put ARC in the subject line. I have a limited number of e-copies available for reviewers.
“You know perfectly well whom you are addressing!” said Alice.
“Where is he then?”
Alice groaned. “Mr. Dodgson said that I should make the announcement and that’s why I’m here.”
Caterpillar blew smoky rings into the air. His eyes grew droopy. “No one knows this Mr. Dodgson fellow anymore.”
“Mr. Dodgson? Alright then — Lewis Carroll.” Alice’s mounting irritation became plain as she opened and closed her fists.
“Let me introduce you and then you tell them? Agree?” murmured Caterpillar.
“I suppose,” said Alice.
“For all those listening, this is Alice Liddell from Oxford. She has news to share.”
Alice drew a long breath. “It is my privilege and honor to announce that my recent set of adventures underground with my American friends, Ben & Kyle, and also Mr. Dodgson ( I mean– Lewis Carroll) has been set to paper by author Ellis Nelson. The book entitled, Down the Treacle Well, will be published by Tuxtails Publishing and made available this fall. Everyone in Wonderland is terribly excited about the impending release.”
Caterpillar raised an eyebrow. “Everyone?”
“Well, probably not everyone. The Red Queen for one is likely to be quite upset.”
