Puppy Not Eating All Of A Sudden

New reviews


As promised, here's further criticism received on Facebook, Fnac.com or on my hotmail account which the term appears at the end of my novel.
Each day brings its share of surprises. A reader dream of a last drink with Captain Duhamel, Stephanie de Liege - Simenon was born anyway! - Wants to send me his book so I dedicate it to him, while last Saturday I received an email from a guy who claimed to be Georges Simenon. Of course! Except he's been dead for twenty years, the father Sim. And for this anniversary, the town of Cognac has decided to honor him as part of his famous festival of detective fiction. I hope to be. I also send my novel to the detective festival in Liège for the famous competition "written by Crystal," but nobody deigned to answer me. If anyone has a contact
... In the meantime, here is a selection of comments. And do not think I show only the best, I voluntarily place that Simon seems to regret that, among other things, lack of thickness certain characters. I would have still credited with four stars on a website selling online.

GIANT!
I loved it! Excellent thriller, well-crafted, outstanding well done and very enjoyable to read! To be enjoyed without moderation, I would definitely recommend for beautiful hours of a novel of great quality!

I am at the moment, to turn the last page of the detective novel and a word I quickly came in mind: success ... Indeed, Blood of ink 36 has good things: a plot pleasant, pretty smart and well structured, characters quite likeable, suspense amount of power to the son of the pages. The highlight is, of course, the minute description of the investigation itself that emerges as the central protagonist of the work! Exciting! However, it is also necessary to point out some small blunders which n'amenuisent not affect the quality of the fleece: a psychology too discreet various protagonists in favor, of course, a faithful transcript of the newspaper of the Criminal Brigade, an outcome a mild rough and finally, a good style but a familiar brown (but consistent with the "universe" realistic book). Simon


Hello Herve, I am friend to the IJ. I just wanted to commend the high quality of your work which allowed me, even on vacation to be even at 36. I really enjoyed myself from start to finish. One can only seek to put an image of a colleague known to the crime 'on each character. In the words of the critic "once started, can not stop." I was not necessarily a big fan of detective fiction, but you're born of envy. Thank you again for these good times in your pages and messages soon the next one!
See you can be ... a crime scene ...
Thierry

Cheats Pokemon Fire Red Gpsphone

The first flow, finally ...

The Vendee is not Britain. Yet it rained much of the weekend, as in Brittany, moreover, since I received the photo by text preview of my book shelves in one of the cultural department of the Leclerc Ploudalmezeau in the middle of Saturday afternoon. The Leclerc, Hyper U and also because my hairdresser in Paris, Vendee also told me distribute my album in the latter sign.


Fifteen years ago I left my south Vendee, and the stillness of the Poitevin for the madness of Paris. Yet I am expected. An article praises my "merits" as a writer in the municipal ballot. To sign a few autographs, visiting the nursing home where my grandparents live, an appointment to meet with a correspondent Ouest-France Press with whom I refer to the local painter Gaston Chaissac Simenon's life and between 1940 and 1945. Then a little trip to Fontenay-le-Comte, a city I like this dying in my thriller, the city that welcomed me three years during my high school years. The main bookstore on Avenue of the Republic, the one where I was going to refuel on Wednesday afternoon, this storefront in a series of novels signed Simenon. Small tower at the corner Leclerc, just to confirm the presence of my fleece. The library is deserted corner, I later tell my wife party identification; with the exception of a lady who seems to hesitate between a Conelly and Coben. "Take it intervenes Sophie, stating "Blood ink on 36" is great, we started and we can not stop, "she says to make it sell." Okay "said the future reader won by the enthusiasm of his interlocutor.


Meanwhile, I rush to the World 2.'s investigation Pascale Robert-Diard on taste Crime interested in highest point. Especially she interviewed one of my colleagues from six "experts" of the crime. The selection of summer thrillers of the World columnist literary interests me less because I do not find not my novel. Yet, Pascale Robert-Diard has not forgotten our meeting on the Place Dauphine. Because she does not hesitate to add to the selection of Gerard Meudal a reference to my book on his blog Chronicles of Courts.


thereupon returned to Paris the day after a fireworks display, not without seeing my grandmother: "Well shame to be so smart and not write" she says by way Farewell. Looks like the first pages of my fleece him like much, it has long been rocked by Evenings . My mother comforts me that she did not refer to history but to the dedication. It is true that she has always complained to write like a doctor.


July 15, sunny day. The King of SMS and email resumes. Again some praise. But still uncertainties related to sales, despite a contact facebook makes me part of sustained movements at the airport of Orly. I was up a few spots to fill désormaisla 18th place on Fnac.com. And New Detective, in his weekly, written by Michel Mary, leases my police work and novelist.


Thursday, finally, an email late in the day while I am preparing to launch an ad to hundreds of booksellers selected in the yellow pages. Very good debut says my editor. Over 1300 sales over the first 10 days. Continued ... For a future post in early August.

Diagram Of A Motor And Labeled Parts

A week after its official release, the first reviews of Blood Ink at 36

Hard to know. I am speaking of sales, of course. Must say that it's only five days that the book is distributed. Some publishers did not even get. Monday, so I went dragging my gaiters towards the Gare de Lyon. I counted a total of ten stores Relay. There is no escaping the banner. The traveler can zap the first by thoughtlessness, or even the second in the eagerness of a ticket to compost. But how to shrink both fronts colored? How, in such circumstances, climb into the train without his detective or his favorite newspaper?
Finally, I found my fleece in one of the company's stores. A stack of three, conspicuous. I m'apporche the market, dares to ask the flows. Runoff?! Kesako? wonder she. The sales figures, Madame. Three, "she says after tapping on his keyboard pouting. But that's only four days he was released, is recovering it. Phew. Finally, I learn that the library has an initial stock of 20 books. They left 17 to sell.
Preliminary figures not until July 15, said my editor. A bookstore Fnac I said we could not really judge a month. I take refuge in my office, my flaps on Internet site Fnac.com. I realize I'm the 23rd (In book format Paperback) in Internet sales Fnac. That's good, but it is a small indicator. Must wait. And better wait I read the first reviews:
intrigue done well, the story is compelling and the pages turn without conscience no ... A pleasure as by the style of construction as the characters and the investigation. Envy febrile know the end, but the frustration of the book ends ... Thank you Hervé ... (Patricia, Facebook)
A true immersion in the heart of 36, Quai des Orfevres in an investigation group of the Crim. " Characters well drawn, pace, meaning dialogues, story well built, one begins to want to live the doubts of those cops, suffer along with Captain Duhamel. To read urgently. (Emilie, Amazon)
WAOUHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just finished Blood Ink at 36: a delight ..... This novel super taking to bed all in one gulp. I also agree with Bruno, he reads too fast, and indeed, I also hope a sequel is planned ..... (Dorothea, Facebook)
I continue, holidays permitting, my reading police. This is a real gem. For once, no errors in the functioning of the police, no exaggeration, no invention in the role of commissioners. Had he possessed the banter with black humor of "Take a Chance card", another excellent officer, I would have easily 5 / 5. Bravo Hervé Jourdain is a really good thriller French, far from the industrial production Anglo-Saxon. (Vero, Fnac.com)
I am moved. Emu and proud to have won a few readers. I have a fishing hell. Yeeeea.
Good evening.
