  • Hi Janet, I will review your book Waters of the Dancing Sky.  I looked at the reveiws you do have on Amazon and I see that it has pictures.  As you know, pictures don't work well on Kindle e-books, and if that is so, then you can send me a copy to Joan Adamak, 6572 E Falon Ln, Prescott, Valley, AZ 86314.  Otherwise, you can have it gifted to me on Kindle and let me know when so I can download it.

  • Hi Joan, I am working with Mary Firmin taking care of her websites and helping her promote her novel, so I have read Deadly Pleasures and it is really good. Mine is the longer review on amazon. She does have it available on kindle http://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Pleasures-ebook/dp/B0060MU6FQ/ref=sr_1... I am sure she would gladly send you a copy either print or digital.

  • Hello Joan - I'd be pleased to send you a complimentary copy of my novel, Waters of the Dancing Sky, if you'd be interested in reviewing it. For more information, you may check out my Amazon site as well as my own website (http://www.watersofthedancingsky.com) Thanks for your consideration and have a great day. Janet Kay

    How David Met Sarah
    ...a very special love story. First in a three-book series from eFitzgerald
  • I don't charge anything for my book reviews, but I do ask that you see that I get a copy for free.  I took a quick look at your site on Amazon and because some of your reviews were so short, it seemed like they might be your friends?  I didn't notice that it was on Kindle, but if it is and you let me know you have a copy available for me to download, then I will do so.  After I do a review for Amazon, then I also post it on my blogsite wwwjoansmusings.blogspot.com.  Let me know when  you do have a copy available for me on Amazon so I will look for it.

  • Dear Ms. Adamak, I would love to have you review my self published book, Deadly Pleasures.  It is available on Amazon.com, iUniverse.com, Kindle, Nook. This month it is also featured on Barnes and Noble Rising Star Collection Boutique.. I have received great reviews from Kirkus, Blueink, and a five star rating from ForeWord Clarion. You may find more information on my web site, maryfirmin.com, or on my blog: http://maryfirmin.blogspot.com.  Your view on my book would be greatly appreciated.  Sincerely, Mary Firmin

  • This is what Amazon does.  The author can allow 30% of their book to be viewed for free and I do this often to see if the book interests me or not.

  • I have the same question. It would be nice to post a couple of chapters and then have a link to my books.

  • So how would you use wattpad? It looks like its a place to create stories, but do you think you could just put a couple of chapters on it and then say for the rest buy it here? Not sure if that is what wattpad is about, but it could work.

     

  • Never heard of Wattpad. Have you done anything with them?

When is the right time to hire a publicist?

Have any of you hired publicists and have they been effective? Have they also worked with you with your online presence?  I am curious about this because I am now a micro publisher and have spoken with a few publicists about what they offer. One does a lot of work with self- published authors but I know that here are a lot of limitations. Self-published books will not be distributed in retail stores. And Create Space is not considered a publishing imprint for this purpose. Have any of you had…

Holiday Gift Lists?

Anyone have suggestions for getting a book included in a holiday gift suggestion list in newspapers or online? Any connections or leads you might pass on to a fellow writer? My publisher, St. Lynn's Press, specializes in books that make good gifts and my new book Coffee for Roses is in that style. Suggestions?cover_stamp.jpg
