I offered AprilJester the COOLNESS sticker before she asked me to help her edit The Mahani Wolves.  I also offered her the sticker way before The Mahani Wolves hit 100K reads. I think it had maybe half that at the time. It's popular enough that my shout-out is superfluous, but I'm not removing the book. There is no such thing as un-shouting.

At some point in 2025 I'm going to be helping her convert the novel into a series. It would present a conflict of interest for me to review a book that I'm professionally editing, so I can safely say that this book is not going to be reviewed here.

In the interest of disclosure, I should also say that some time in the middle to later part of 2024, we became close enough to call each other friends rather than acquaintances. This, too, would prevent me from giving the book SO COOL status and a sticker now, but at the time I gave the sticker there was no conflict of interest.

I may write a foreword for the book-to-series conversion. If I do, a copy of the foreword can safely go here.
