No-news-day link roundup

I shall, as I have idle moments from time to time, attempt to replicate the recent links posted in my former MySpace blog now lost to entropy. Today: the shortcuts to my assorted e-book markets.

B&N dot com:

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/lois-...

iTunes/iPad (this one also includes audiobooks):

https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/lo...

Amazon US:

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_...

Amazon UK:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_s...

iTunes, for some reason, seems to be especially hard to search.

Coming soon to Amazon UK, at long last; the first two Chalion e-books, which are in process even as I type -- we were just working on the e-cover for The Curse of Chalion today. Paladin of Souls is next in the queue.

(Readers for all the other country Amazons, proliferating out there in a fascinating manner, are left to their own devices in their own languages for now, sorry.)

experiment in photos - Estonian BiA

The Estonian edition of Brothers in Arms came in today... I will see if I can get this new Goodreads blog space to show a photo of the cover.

Let's first try the one off the GR formatting tips menu



and see what happens.

Hm. Preview shows a blank. Try it without the recommended formatting...

Well, that's the link, but not an image.

Does anyone know the trick of this?

Ta, L.

Later, experimenting in Edit...



Preview claims victory. Let's see...

my ex-MySpace blog

June 12, 2013: MySpace has apparently hacked themselves, taking down my blog and everything it contained. So the feed from and to there from here no longer works. (Nor can I be reached though its e-mail.)

Eventually I will probably replace it with a proper site, but most certainly not on MySpace!

bests, Lois.
