Awesome stuff Kay :) Looks fabulous!!

Good to know everyone :)

My name is Eldon Farrell and I hail from Canada. I have at present one series of three books published (Stillness, Taken, and Realm of Shadows) in the mystery/thriller genre. I also have an anthology of short stories published with several other authors I met through Goodreads.

I love to help my fellow authors in any way I can so don't be shy to ask!

Nice!

Check out this article for more info on Pronoun :D

We all learn as we go along :) Glad to help out anyway I can!!

As I can see, you've certainly gotten popular in the past few hours. If you feel the desire or manage to find a place on your list to read a couple crime fiction novels from the other s..."

Hi Dante,

If you published through Amazon getting a mobi copy of your books from kindle direct is a breeze. This makes it much easier for reviewers to read on their ereaders :)

Hi Ruth! You're very kind to make this offer and I'm sure you're inundated by now. But...if you're still in the market for a thrilling good read how about



Blurb:

A killer is stalking the city…

FBI Special Agent Caleb Fine—along with the rest of the nation—sees the enigmatic predator known as “The Toymaker” lurking in every shadow. Always just out of reach, with each new victim he nabs; Caleb loses more of himself to the pursuit of darkness.

We have your wife…

The blinking light on his answering machine reveals these four words to Roger Whittaker as he returns home. They are destined to change the rest of his life.

Bo Lester from the Major Crimes Unit in Atlanta views the abduction of Miriam Whittaker as an inside job—someone at the CDC sold Roger out. For him the prime suspect becomes Lynne Bosworth. Her case is not helped by the animosity that has existed between her and Roger for the past six months. With few leads to follow, Bo demands that she return home from Peru—where she is stationed with the World Health Organization—to face questioning. Brought back to face the accusations she is aided in her defense by Caleb who works to free her and find out who is really behind Miriam’s abduction.

As the pressure builds a single demand is delivered—Roger is to attend the International AIDS Conference in Toronto and renounce HIV as the cause of AIDS! Stunned by this demand and fighting interests from all sides, what is Roger to do? If he refuses to comply Miriam will die. If he endorses the claim millions more could die.

Unless it’s true…

Let me know if it's of interest (and don't worry about it being Book 2...it stands on it's own just fine!)

Great article Nicole!!

Pronoun seems very intriguing. Does anyone know what they refer to as "free marketing tools"? Any clue what that would consist of?

Congratulations Ember! Good luck with the reveal :)

People really think authors are paid on a free sale!? What are they paid with? Seriously...*shaking head*

Carole is right, ads aren't about making your money back but about getting some eyes on your product. It will pay off in the long run!

I'd love to do that Alexis!! I'll PM you later for all the details :)

Something good happened yesterday; following a promotion on Bargain Booksy my author rank on Amazon peaked at 10,541 and gave me a little visibility :)

For all those authors out there wanting to know which promotions work and are worth the spend...Bargain Booksy was well worth it for me!

Put mine in :) Thanks again!!
