Thanks Alexis! You do deserve at least 95% of the credit though!
And I know I say this way too often to you- the password isn't working for me :(

Yes, it is. You can edit the text if you want or if you spot any mistakes.

We had a very soft winter here! Only 3 to 4 days felt really cold. It sucked lol!

Alex wrote: "I feel offended *sniff* Nah, not really, I don't mind; I mean, a few skulls and some blood would be nice, but I'll cope with cute if I must, lol.
Good work."
Well the next one is summer so fire and steaks would be right on theme ;)
I have an idea.Right now if u visit the giveaway page,
You see where I have the 3 different giveaways listed as "steps"?
What if we unlock one of the steps every day? And to unlock the visitor has to tweet an automatic message?
For example, DAY 1 is win a 4x $10 amazon giftcard
And then DAY 2 will be 3x $20 amazon giftcard
And then we unveil the big $50 card on last day.
That way we continue to drive traffic to the website throughout the event.
Oh and I know a lot of you are creative people and banner makers. If you'd like to help in anyways, my DM's are open! :)
I am open to whatever you're selling. Seriously! Just tell me how to contribute. I've put our link on my website and plan to make some banners tomorrow when I get a free sec. Freaking snow!!! It's ruining my selfish time. ; P

I'm still trying to get Disqus to send me a verification code so I can comment on the website.But I just want to comment on Alexis' article, and say thank-you. I didn't know those sites existed. Your article has given us more helpful resources. It will sure help me:) Good article, Alexis!!
Posted it to FB...
Thanks Groovy! Did you check your junk mail folder? You can still submit a comment as a guest by the way.
I'm about to post such a great, informative, article! :D

Thanks for writing it!
I hope that Pronoun manages to disturb Amazon's complete dominating monopoly. More competition will only benefit us authors, especially if we could get the 70% at 0.99 option.
What kind of word count do you want on the articles? I've written one, but it might be too short.
Aislinn wrote: "What kind of word count do you want on the articles? I've written one, but it might be too short."I don't have a word count. Short articles can pack a punch too!
Alex wrote: "70% at 0.99, now that's the kind of thing that could make me switch to Pronoun, I'd be okay with pricing all books at that if I was getting 70%, I'd have a much better chance of making a living."Amazon needs to face some competition lol.
I think Pronoun will end up introducing something that allows them to make money down the road but for now, pfff, I'm tempted.
OK cool. What's the email I send it to again?

Awesome. My stack of articles was just starting to get low.
OK all uploaded. You said you wanted more marketing articles, so I hope this qualifies. Let me know if you want any changes or anything.

Hmmm I believe I sent you an article on marketing over a week ago and haven't heard anything. But I could be wrong
Ember wrote: "Hmmm I believe I sent you an article on marketing over a week ago and haven't heard anything. But I could be wrong"Heyy Ember, well until now we've been really busy so I've only messaged ppl when I'm about to post their article, like a "Hey, you're article is about to be posted today" heads up kind of thing. Unless I'm asked about it of course. :)
I do regularly post in this thread about the articles that we receive like I did in Message 505 of this thread where I say I will message the author if I don't think we could use the article. No issues with your article. Thanks for writing it and it will make it to the blog soon!
I never heard of Pronoun. Will watch and see. Good article, Nicole:)
You, too, Nicole. It's so nice to hear from you again.It's really late here, but I should have your link on my FB by tomorrow. I'm sure there are a lot of authors, like me, who has never heard of Pronoun and need to.
Alexis & Nicole, your articles have seriously made me happy this morning. I love, love, love having tools to use--and mostly have no clue where to find them--bravo!
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?
Great Article. A friend also recommended them! I was thinking of putting my latest release on there. We'll see how that goes.
I want to thank you guys again for being so supportive, not just by sending articles but by reading what is posted and sharing it on your social media accounts.We've just reached 200 comments posted!
I almost shed a tear but I decided to celebrate with chocolate cake instead.
P.S. You're never too old for stickers, lol.

Thanks for the link, Eldon.
