I knew there was a reason we liked you more than Kate ;-p

LOL, soon!

Heya guys,

Two small file snafus that our webmistress is on right now:

1. If you ordered First Watch, you'll for some reason see two PDF files instead of one. One says "access denied." The other is the file. I have no idea where that ghost PDF is coming from--it does NOT show up on the back-end file list--but it probably has something to do with that story we killed a while back . . . *whistles innocently*

2. If you ordered Master Class or Once a Marine, we're having the opposite problem: the files DO show up on the back-end file list but don't seem to be popping up in anyone's bookshelf. My guess? They're afraid of the ghost of the tentacle monster.

Our designer is on both issues and will hopefully have a solution in very short order. In the meanwhile, if you've ordered either Master Class or Once a Marine and are dying to get your hands on them, please email info@riptidepublishing.com with your order number and file type of choice and we shall email it directly to your doorstep :-)

Thanks all for your patience while we shake out those last few stubborn bugs!

Our first eight books are available for download in just under an hour. :D :D :D Excited yet?

Cat Grant's Once a Marine is up for the November Book of the Month read at the fantabulous M/M Romance Group. If you'd like to do a book-club reading of OAM, please cast your vote!

(On a related note, any interest in doing RP book-club reads here?)

Hi Sammy,

Chris here.

You can turn over your fortune on October 1. LOL Our web store will be open and taking pre-orders. On October 28th, the first 8 books, (those whose release date is October 30) will be available to all who pre-ordered. In other words, every book will be available 2 days before its official release date, but only for those who pre-order. A nice, little perk for pre-ordering, isn't it?

And there's more advantages too:

Win Free Books for a Year - Starting October 1, our web store will be open for pre-orders. For each book pre-ordered directly through our site, readers receive one entry into a drawing to win free books for a year! There are second and third prizes, too:

• First Prize is one free copy of every single ebook Riptide releases in 2012!
• Second Prize is one free copy of every single ebook Riptide releases between January 1 and June 30, 2012!
• Third Prize is one free copy of every single ebook Riptide releases between January 1 and March 31, 2012!

That's a lot of free books! We'll draw winners at random right after the New Year, so even books pre-ordered in December will earn entries into the contest. And even those who don't win still get a nifty bonus: pre-ordered books are available for download two full days before their official sale date!

Bonus Bucks (http://riptidepublishing.com/faq#t8n25) are earned on every pre-order you place.
