Hi, Readers:
Last week, International Thriller Writers announced the finalists for the 2024 Thriller Awards. There are eight Thriller Award categories and I am astounded to say my latest book, A Good Rush of Blood, is a finalist for the Best E-Book Original Novel Thriller Award, along with five other stellar novels.
This represents—in all honesty—the highest level of professional success I’ve ever had as a writer. I’ll be in NYC this June to attend the awards banquet and tip a few back with fellow writers/nominees. It should be a good time, if I can afford the cab ride from the airport…thank goodness for airline miles.
If you haven’t had a chance to read the novel, pick up an ebook here or buy yourself a paperback. If you can find time in your day (or night) to leave a review, it’d help me with visibility—thanks to all those who already bought and read the book!
In other news, I’ll be in Tucson this weekend for the Tucson Festival of Books. A Good Rush of Blood is an official indie selection for the festival and I’ve got a presentation slot at the festival on Saturday, March 9. I’m excited about attending the flagship book festival in the United States, and am hoping I can sell some books to new readers.
If you’ve been a reader of my work—I want to thank you for your support. It’s been a slow ride, but I see more and more success with each book. So, thank you. I can’t do this without your readership and support. Hell, I wouldn’t want to do it without you!
With thanks,
Matt
Congrats!
Well deserved!
