I have one blog site for each of my novels. On the first page of each blog is the first chapter. You can read it right now for free to see if you like it. No advertising on any of the sites, just the url to the novel at Amazon and B&N.
Each novel is only 99 cents. Each is over 400 pages. MIDNIGHT REFLECTIONS: http://midnightreflectionsebook.wordpress.com/ THE NECROMANCER: http://necromancerebook.wordpress.com/ THE LIVING IMAGE: http://pamelamary.wordpress.com/ |

The homepage ads/book covers have been placed upon the site for the month of March. So check all those authors out... and the ones who post to the site in all the different categories as well.
We are also having work done to the site. I am HOPING these improvements will be done soon. It's taken way too long! |

UPDATE
So we are just about done with our site "improvements". Basically we now have the following options - 1.) Featured Ad - This will make your ad appear above all others in your main chosen category (ie Books Non-Fiction) for 5 days. It will have a star next to it and be highlighted as well. This is good for those who want their ad to stand out from other ads. Cost - $1.00 via PayPal Just remember that if you use a paid option that after paying via PayPal you still must verify your ad through your email to activate it. That is when your ad will appear. 2.) Extended Ad - This will make your ad last an extra 5 days on the site or an extra 10 days on the site (your choice) beyond the current 20 day cycle. It appears along with all the other ads and is not a Featured Ad. But it does last longer than regular ads. Cost $0.50 for 5 days -or- $0.75 for 10 days via PayPal. Just remember that if you use a paid option that after paying via PayPal you still must verify your ad through your email to activate it. That is when your ad will appear. 3.) Newsletter - We now have a newsletter option so we can update you via the email address you provide us with when placing your ad. So if there's some good info we got we can send it on over to you. We are working out how often we should send this out. Maybe once a month, more, or sporadic? We will work on this and not abuse it. It is a cool option though. 4.) My Account - Now you can go to My Account and create your very own account with us. It's quite basic. You can upload a pic to represent you. When visitors click on your User Account, through your ad on the site, they will see your profile pic and all the books/stuff you currently have for sale on the site. It's a basic account for the site. Cost - FREE! (Some have already used this. Looks good!) 5.) We added a Humor category under the eBooks and Books Fiction main categories! The site is still FREE to use. We just added a few more things for more flexibility with the site. As far as the prices of the Featured Ad go we need to find a price point that isn't so cheap that everyone will use it and push regular users down while keeping it not too pricey either. We are still looking for bugs but it is all up for your use. Please let us know if you find any discrepancies by emailing us at contact@bookbarista.com Hope you like the new additions. And thanks for using the site

My web site is http://stacyjuba.com/blog/ and it features descriptions, reviews, excerpts and book trailers for my novels. My blog http://stacyjuba.com/blog/blog/ is also attached to the web site and is a good place for readers to be introduced to new authors and books.
As a tie-in to my own titles, guest authors answer the question "What were you or your character doing 25 years ago?" and their character can also fill out a contestant interview for my fictional reality show Sink or Swim. I sometimes have contests and giveaways - through March 19, I'm having a Buzz My Books Giveaway in which I'm giving away a $10 Amazon Gift card. More details on how to enter are in the right sidebar of the web site. |

Two new reviews in the past few days:
The Goblin Brothers Adventures by Lindsay Buroker and Vestal Virgin by Suzanne Tyrpak Both are by fellow MR members, both are available on Smashwords in a variety of formats, and both come highly recommended by me Very different types of stories, however, check them out! Also! Last day for THIS GIVEAWAY (Whom God May Destroy) and don't forget about THIS GIVEAWAY (Alison Wonderland). |

Day One of the 'official' Read an Ebook Week is today (March 6). Plenty of great offers out there, and our own, by no means miserly deal, in my temporary signature line below. If you want to read all about it, click on my blog link, but the basics are in the sig line. It's pretty well open house. Happy RAEBW, folks. Best wishes. Neil

I've got two different blogs to plug here.
The Vampire's Warden blog features news and information about my new paranormal romance book. One Crazy White Lady mainly is my personal blog. I like to keep it real. Real weird. And Crazy. |
