Hello -- new member in Oakville Ontario Canada

pprescott · 03-07-2009, 02:26 PM

Hi everyone.

My name is Paul and I'm a new member here. I live in Oakville Ontario Canada.

I was given a Sony e-reader (PRS-700) this Christmas and have been exploring what is out there on the internet for me to download to read.

It's great to find such a helpful site as MobileRead!

I like reading all sorts of topics although when it comes to fiction I'm partial to science fiction, fantasy, and horror. I have pretty wide-ranging interests in nonfiction.

Hello and welcome! How do you like your 700?

If you like those genres, we have a publisher who frequents here called Apex publications who sells their books on fictionwise for $3-$5, you might want to check them out.

Hi Paul and welcome to the Forum although, frankly, I don't think we should allow any more Canadians to join until you stop sending those damn Alberta Clippers down here.

Hello from Vancouver Paul and welome to MobileRead.

I got my PRS700 last November and am having a great time reading and finding where to get free and cheap eBooks, usually SciFi, Murder/Mystery and psychological thrillers.

I've put myself on a budget lately, so I've even borrowed a few eBooks from our local library also.

Links in the MR Wiki will point you to eBook stores (I have bought several from the Sony store, and of course downloaded a bunch of their free classics) and it may even direct you to a library near you.

Welcome aboard. Go visit the lounge for some silliness if you're in the mood.

WDE.
