Malo accepts a plea for help from a dying friend with a secret; it’s an errand of mercy that will force him to confront ghosts from the past, as well as the highest authority in the known worlds. Meanwhile he’s hoping that his ship The Patient Maid will make it through next gravity well in one piece.

Check out the reviews here and at Amazon (60 five-star reviews at Amazon, so far.) If you'd like to give the book a try, it's on Amazon and B&N.com, or you can order it at my website (thefirewatcher.com) It's cheapest from me and if you supply a first name I'll personalize and sign it. Also, the Kindle and Nook versions are only $2.99.
Enjoy.

I created my own video trailer and posted it to YouTube. The only cost to me was to license the song that I wanted in the background, but that was a personal choice.
If you have Microsoft Office 2010, Powerpoint has the ability to convert your slide show into a Windows Media Video file. I added the soundtrack by editing it further with Windows Live Movie Maker, which came either came with the OS or with my Office package.
All the photos were taken by me on my back porch (except for the panoramic sky, which my wife cropped from a vacation photo). I did use Adobe Photoshop to make them look like video-game images, but again, that was a personal choice.
I will pass on advice from one of the author's forum's I visit: don't use the trailer to sell your book, use it to share the message that's in the book.

It features a modern-language Bible version with footnotes responding to Mormon and JW misuse of Scripture -- the passages they love to take out of context and distort. Footnotes also highlight passages they avoid because the plain reading of Scripture proves their peculiar doctrines to be erroneous.

I'm looking forward to our discussions. I am the author of “Working on the Inside: The Spiritual Life Through the Eyes of Actors, “which includes interviews with Kristin Chenoweth, Edward Herrmann, Liam Neeson, Phylicia Rashad, Vanessa Williams and many others. Their wisdom and faith-sharing are inspiring.
Blessings,

Reading down through the list of authors/books, I would say there are a lot of interesting books listed here.




It's very user friendly, isn't it. And people are very helpful.
What genre do you write?



Three grisly murders thrust best friends Grace Barden and Manny Lusum into a generations-old conspiracy of biblical proportions. From New York to Rome to the inner sanctum of the Vatican, Manny and Grace untangle a bizarre mystery surrounding the controversial Shroud of Turin. Their discovery could alter the course of human history—if they live to tell it.

1. I have a mac, so I used imovie '08 for the software.
2. I then chose a theme for the video. I went for simple, serious and intriguing, vs busy and action packed.
3. I then joined a free trial at videoblocks and downloaded the footage that fit the theme you see in the trailer. Here is a link to that: Download FREE Stock Video and Audio Clips
4. I then scripted out what I planned to say, somewhat based on the footage I found.
5. I recorded my voice overs using a very simple mic, actually, this one, and it's as good as the $100 one I used to have. Logitech ClearChat Comfort/USB Headset H390 (Black)

6. I edited the transitions in imovie, and added some stock music/sound effects at the end.
It does take a bit of time to master imovie skills, but in the end this trailer didn't cost any money, only time.
Hope this helps! Feel free to contact me if you have more questions brant818 (at) gmail.com

Windows has comparable software if you don't have a mac, so if that's the case, the other resources I posted will still be helpful. The video footage is the main component.
