Hi Jeff,
Not sure if you remember me but we communicated a lot a few years back. I was wading out as a newbie in the business and you mentored to me. You were a big help to me and I thank you.
I now have a thriving business promoting books for authors at

Give me a shout sometime.
Warm regards,
Riley
