Welcome to MR, Alan!
I see by your post count that you have already been jumping in around the forums. Careful, this place is addictive. I see that you have your work available on your website. Check out what the other authors are doing to promote their work on MR. We love to support participating MR author members. Once your post and/or karma count is up (maybe now) you can create a signature and put info about you book and web link there. We have members that are very knowledgeable about different format conversions/ creation and even an author member (Moejoe) who has created covers for other members. Have fun around the forums and ask questions if you need to. Last edited by dreams; 08-16-2009 at 11:21 PM. Reason: spelling |

Thanks very much. I've already met Moejoe and his cover prowess!
I've been at this indie thing a long time now too, so happy to help in any way I can. It'll be good to share ideas and experiences with people. |

Cheers! I was born and raised in the UK, been in Australia since 1997 and an actual Aussie since 2002. Just in the interests of full disclosure, you understand!

Which part of the "south coast" are you from? We used to spend time in that whole Kiama-Shoalhaven Heads area, though I realise "south coast" may actually mean...well, "south" (Bega, Merimubla, etc.). Cheers, Marc |

I live in Jamberoo actually, just inland about five minutes from Kiama. Beautiful country - I love it here. Moved down here just last year after over a decade in Sydney.

Welcome to MobileRead, Alan!
As I've seen some of your posts in other threads, I figure you know your way around by now. Just as a reminder, we have a Writers' Corner forum here and plenty of free public domain ebooks you can download as well. Enjoy! Happy reading! |
