Welcome to my Blog

Welcome to my official blog. If you're looking for something in particular, you might want to type keywords into the search feature on the left-hand side of the page. And I've added a BLOG INDEX on its own page (a bit more complete than the one below) to make it easier. Poking around is also encouraged.

And please do leave comments! Don't be confused by the "author" field in the comment form. When you are writing a message to me and my readers, you are the author. (Nice role reversal, huh?)

Indie Authors Interview

Yesterday I did an interview via Google+ Hangouts. (Don't you just love the new tech world?) It's episode #62 of Indie Authors, with Jason Matthews and Marla Miller. Of course, I'm only partly indie author. I'm a hybrid of traditionally published, indie, and now Amazon Publishing. That's part of what we talked about.

Some of the focus, of course, was that amazing day in July when my author ranking was #1, just above J.K. Rowling, and I had two Kindle ebooks, Walk Me Home and When I Found You, at #1 and #3 on the Kindle charts. And other topics (hopefully) of interest to writers, and possibly to some readers as well.  

If you missed the interview, you can check it out here:

And the New One is Free

My newest novel, Where We Belong, has actually been for sale on Amazon (ebook and paperback) for a couple of months. But we postponed promoting it, or shouting about it, because there was so much going on with the two Amazon Publishing titles, When I Found You and Walk Me Home. If you don't know what was going on with them, click back a post or two.

Now. Where We Belong's time has come.

From now through midnight on the 20th, the Kindle ebook edition is free to readers in the U.S. and Canada. (This is another one of those times when I must apologize to  my UK readers. The UK rights are owned by a traditional publisher, and I can't give their books away for free.)

Hopefully you know by now that Kindle books can be converted for Nooks and other ereaders, and that you don't need an ereader at all to take advantage of this offer.

Go grab a copy, and let me know what you think!
