Free one day only--gryphonwood press books at Smashwords [Offer Expired]

BearMountainBooks · 10-31-2009, 12:42 PM

I ran across a mention of this deal, and I have read some short stories by Terry Irvin, one of the authors that is part of the publicity deal. His book, www.smashwords.com/books/view/5172 - Flank Hawk, is going to be on sale on Smashwords.com--to the tune of "free" for one day only--all day tomorrow (halloween - Oct 31)!

Do I plan on downloading it? Absolutely!

There's a nice list of books by www.gryphonwood.blogspot.com/ that will be available tomorrow. Check out the link to get the coupons that will allow you to download the books from Smashwords!!!! (There are generally several formats, including .mobi, which allows you to read on Kindle.)

Just a note: If you read and like any of the books, it helps the author tremendously if you leave a thoughtful review. It's a good way to "give back" on these promo deals. Even if you didn't love the book but write a thoughtful review, it's a nice boost.

I've got my fingers ready to "click!!!!"

Thanks for the heads up on this great deal. I took advantage and signed up for a smashwords account and downloaded 6 of the books that looked interesting to me.

Just to catch Dr. Drib's attention, the blog blurb for Flank Hawk says it has ZOMBIES.

Snowychik · 10-31-2009, 08:39 PM

Thanks for the linky. I always appreciate free reads.

AprilHare · 11-01-2009, 01:54 AM

Anyone have trouble downloading the LRF version of Cibola?

dreams · 11-01-2009, 01:09 AM

Given that it gave a 291 byte file here that was in fact an XML document with the embedded message "The specified key does not exist." it might be onto something dreams

Just to say, anyone who missed out on this promo due to a code malfunction or because the blog with the codes on was down, contact Gryphonwood and I'm sure they'll honour it.

Regards,
Ryan

Much appreciated!

I thank you for the heads-up [or OFF!

] on this info.

Missed all these by one day.

Oh, well. Next time.

BearMountainBooks · 11-01-2009, 11:51 AM

The missed opportunity may be my fault--I copied the post from my blog and I had it up a day early...thus the word "tomorrow" may have made people think they had more time. If so...sorry about that. Next time I'll just put a date to avoid confusion! I'm also hoping someone from Gryphonwood will see this thread and speak to the issues people are seeing...I'm always ever hopeful...
