The ebook ANOTHER ROCK STAR in good old fashioned book form?

Coming Feb 2014- I'm considering a Kickstarter Project to attempt to raise enough funds (and of course you'll get a copy!) to get ANOTHER ROCK STAR in print, and also to help raise funds for promo, such as getting a Kirkus Review and attending a couple of writer's conferences to try to find an agent. The projected cost for helping to achieve (note- the rest of the expenses, I'll be raising myself) totals around $3,500. Since it's so long, it would have to be split into 2 books. You can donate however much you want into the tip jar, but to get a copy of the set, the minimum donation would be $35 just to cover the actual printing cost and shipping. So if you're interested, please let me know. That way I'll know if it's a goal worth shooting for. And please share the idea with any of your friends who might be interested. You wouldn't be charged unless the project goal is met. And there will be incentives...like t-shirts, totes and other fun stuff.
Thanks for your interest and support!

Is my novel, ANOTHER ROCK STAR, a freak of nature?

I have to say yes. But of course, I've called myself that since I was a kid, so this isn't a bad thing. This book doesn't fit into any genre. It's a love story, a deep love story, on many levels for one thing, and secondly, it is not a "traditional" romance. It's not this scenario: Persons A and B meet and know they're instantly soul mates, but they can't be together for numerous trials and obstacles, and then get together at the end with a tidy bow on the box. But remember, this is a novel about a guy's life. And there's always hope! I don't want you wasting your money on something that isn't what you want to read. Enjoy!

A completely free offer!

Ha, it makes me so happy that some people actually care enough about the book to want one of Shane's (the guitarist-in ANOTHER ROCK STAR--but you'd probably know that if this offer means anything to you!) guitar picks. A few left, so if you really care and want one, like http://www.facebook.com/PaulaCootsBooks and message me your addy. I'll mail it forthwith, completely free.
