'Dreamshade' - available free for a limited time!
Hiya
Just letting you know that my pretty wild fantasy epic 'Dreamshade' is available free until July 8th 2010. It's available in all the major epublishing formats: just go to https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/15916 and enter the coupon code BS86Q at the checkout, and you can get the whole e-novel at no cost. Luvly! 'Benjamin Crosskeys always thought he was ordinary. But when he meets Lilac Zhenrei, a magical adventuress from a land of living dreams, he soon discovers he has reason to believe otherwise. For Benjamin has a rare and wonderful ability. And in an epic adventure, he will discover the price that comes with this gift, as he strives to save his family from a monster born of nightmares...' Oh, and it's got an electric guitar in it that also fires lasers. If you like, please be sure to leave a glowing review. Many thanks. |

^^Thanks. If you like it, please let people know about it! Also ... I'd be quite interested to know how it appears/reads on your Sony eReader - I'm sure it will be fine, but if there's anything about the presentation or formatting you think I ought to know, then I'd appreciate it if you could leave a message on this thread. Cheers!

Just a quick thanks to all those who have downloaded my book in the past couple of days - and some very special thanks to those of you who went and bought the book without the free coupon code! Wowzer - I hope you really like it!

^^ I've just checked - yeah, the site is down. It happens from time to time, and it's pretty annoying. It'll probably be fixed in a hour or two (lol, I have this faint hope that it's the popularity of my book which is causing the crashes!)

^^ Thanks for the info - would you be so kind as to tell me what kinds of problems this might be causing? Thing is, I don't have a Kindle myself, so I'm a bit in the dark about at the moment!

Well, Dreamshade has made it into the top-ten on Smashwords' bestseller list, which is very nice to see! Hope everyone out there is enjoying the book!

Just a quick word to say that Dreamshade has just been submitted to Amazon, so hopefully in a few days time there should be a nice new Kindle version with much better formatting. In the meantime, Dreamshade is still free, and available in all the major formats - so you've got nothing to lose by giving it a try!
