The BestsellerBound First Annual Sample Anthologies are now on Scribd!

As many of you already know, I am a resident author on BestsellerBound, a website dedicated to promoting independent authors.

One of our most active members, author Joel Blaine Kirkpatrick has put together three anthologies of excerpts from BestsellerBound authors' books. The anthologies include short stories and chapters from books. I am sure that anyone looking for a new book to read will find something in at least one of the anthologies. We have authors of romance, historical fiction, political fiction, thrillers, mysteries, crime fiction... you name it, it's in there!

The first volume contains the full version of my short story 'Forever Blue' from my collection Pieces of a Rainbow

The anthologies have been produced as a promotional tool for our members who are all independent authors and have to do all their own marketing. If you find the anthologies interesting, I hope you will share them with your friends and tweet about them, add links to your Facebook sites, blog about them, etc., etc. This would be very helpful and much appreciated by the authors involved.

You can read the three anthologies by following the links below:

Volume one

Volume Two

Volume Three

Make sure you also check out the websites and blogs of all the participating authors, as some of them are (or will soon be) offering downloads of the pdf files from their websites. I am in the process of arranging for the pdf files to be available as downloads from my website. I'll blog about that when it happens.

We are also trying to find a website where we can publish the anthologies as free ebooks. Watch this space for news on that.

Please take a moment to check out the anthologies. I hope you'll find lots of new authors to read.
