Drummer Boy marching into battle...
So my new novel has this kid, he is caught between a world that doesn't want him and a world where he shouldn't belong, and a lot of grown-ups who have no idea how to deal with it when a ghostly troop of Civil War deserters come down from the hills...
We're flash mobbing today (May 11) from 3 pm to 4 pm EST at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Drummer-Boy-ebook/dp/B003F77EP4 trying to goose the system a little and see if an indie can compete with the bestsellers Also available at Smashwords:http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/11692 and my web site: http://www.hauntedcomputer.com/drummerboy.htm Based on my experiences as a Civil War re-enactor, a folklore collector, and a misfit kid. Hope you will march over and snare a sample... Scott |

thanks Simon!
We had 23 Kindle sales in "flash hour"--still waiting to see if it gooses the Amazon rankings...
of course, there's no real-time data for iPad, my books aren't on Nook yet, and Smashwords showed no real action, so I don't think this is a way to quit the Day Job! Keep delivering those noir thrillers, Simon. Scott |

Complete report on the Flash Mob experiment is posted at http://hauntedcomputer.blogspot.com
Conclusion: sales boost rankings but doesn't create viral effect Scott |

Free Sept. 19-20, Drummer Boy. A misfit kid is all that stands between a small town and a chilling supernatural force.
