Tonight my hubby came home and was leafing through our mail (which I love to ignore), and he handed me a large envelope from Writer's Digest. I love Writer's Digest magazine, but this looked like junk mail. On the way to the trash, I decided to rip it open just in case they'd begun sending their magazines in envelopes for some strange reason. Much to my surprise, I received a participation recognition certificate for the 19th annual Self-Published Book Awards. That alone isn't so exciting, but the paper that came with it was. This is what it conveyed:
Sometimes things happen in our life that have the capacity to make us jump up and down and act like we've lost our minds. Today I was told about one of those events. Perez Hilton, yes, the Perez Hilton, mentioned COME BACK TO ME on his blog in his Holiday Recommended list for 2011.
Today I was featured in the Huffington Post, where I laid out the facts of ebook pricing. Is 99 cents a valid price point for ebooks? How will the no-discount pricing structure effect authors, publishers, and of course, readers? Weigh in on the Huffington Post article, here:
Hi everyone, just a quick shameless self promotion. My books are being reduced for a holiday sale. All three books just 99 cents each. Megan's Way and Come Back to Me have already been reduced.
I can't believe it's November 1st. For the past thirty days I have worked along side thirty five of the most gracious authors that you could imagine. Thirty five men and women who have pulled together, supporting each other for the good of the group, listening, offering advice, leaning on one another.
I am very excited to share my news with you! COME BACK TO ME, my third novel, is now available for pre-order through AMAZON. It's been an interesting and exciting road getting here, but the day has come, and I'm very proud. I hope you enjoy the story of Tess and Beau.
I have tremendous gratitude for my readers. I'm a fairly new author, and many have picked up CHASING AMANDA and given it a read. Over 100 have reviewed it on Amazon. Thank you.
When I write, I am fearful of how my work will be received, but I'm also hopeful. I hope readers will not just enjoy my books, but want to read more. Your support means a lot to me. I love to receive emails, FB messages and Tweets and talking with readers in a way that hadn't been available years ago. I think we're all very blessed.
