Who’s Bill, then?
- Bill the Butcher
- Bill the Butcher is a dentist by profession, a writer by vocation, and the author of several novels, plays, and a few hundred stories and poems. He’s also a kind of know-it-all and not really a nice person in any sense of the word.
Greetings,
I am managing e-promotion for the new novel, Nine Inch Bride, literary fiction set in the near future in which a uniquely talented revolutionary pairs up with a fallen Wall Street analyst to fuel a bonfire of American political culture. Your site came up in a search for bloggers interested in the novel’s primary themes.
We thank you for the Piazza della Carina and Bill the Butcher blogs and invite you to download a complimentary copy in pre-publication release at nineinchbride.com. Short and long book descriptions, excerpts, reviews and comments are also available there, along with book downloads (and e-readers) in your choice of format.
We’d be keenly interested in your impressions, and would appreciate a review or comment on your site or ours.
Sincerely,
James Lesni
