I just bought this book. So strange as I could have sworn I had already bought it a few years ago.

The Book Thief

Trust me, though, the words were on their way, and when they arrived, Liesel would hold them in her hands like the clouds, and she would wring them out like the rain.

I have two questions. How can I remove the second novel, which is actually the first novel with the subtitle added?Also, how do I add other favorite authors, authors that I have actually read? After the 3rd author in the group, I have not read the rest. I don't mind giving them some attention, but I would like my truly most favorite authors to show up before their names.
Am also looking for reviews for "Secrets & Lies in El Salvador." Contact me through my e-mail.
Peace,
Sherrie
Thanks to everyone who has helped me! It is amazing how much support and assistance a writer needs to get to publication. In the old days, that was pretty much the end of it, but today, we continue to need advice and help from many people, especially those who are more adept at computer & internet operations.And, most of all, thank you to my readers, especially the ones who write reviews. All I ask for is a 2-3 sentence review, but just received and amazing 5* review from fellow author, Chloe Thurlow. I will try to get the Amazon reviews posted here, but just in case, here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Secrets-Lies-El...

In "Secrets & Lies in El Salvador," Shelly goes to war-torn El Salvador to forget about her own pain and her mother's deception. She learns to love in the face of loss and to forgive others as she realizes that we all lie and we all have our secrets.http://tinyurl.com/klxbt4y

Congrats on the success of your campaign. Wish we were friends before it ended, I would have been happy to help and support! :)
Where can I make a post to get information & suggestions on promoting my novel "Secrets & Lies in El Salvador"? It is due out in a month & I have no idea how to promote or market the book.Sherrie

Please share my Kickstarter campaign & support me if you can! Thanks!https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
A $5 pledge will get you a copy of the e-book in Dec.
I have added many special rewards for teachers!

P.S. My story deals with the children who lost their childhood because of the war.
Last night, I finally finished revisions, rewrites, edits and adding to the storyline of "Secrets & Lies In El Salvador." BUT when I went to put it on my flash drive, it suddenly disappeared! The most recent version I can find is from Dec. 5, 2013. I have been working very hard on it since then, including correcting typos and adding new story lines. It didn't occur to me before then that all the stories told to my protagonist should have some kind of a pay-off.I have gone back to my laptop 3 times to see if I somehow missed it. I have always believed that "Everything happens for a reason," but I can find no reason for losing a story that has been a part of my life for 25 years!
Sadly,
Sherrie
A belated thanks for choosing me to be among your friends, Sherrie. It may interest you that my book Marvin Clark—In Search of Freedom in now a matching FREE download on Amazon Kindle. Enjoy it while you can. (A little review on Amazon wouldn't hurt either!)Stan

I love that I don't have to go looking for friends, but, honestly, I have no idea how this works so if you want to be friends, you will have to ask. You will not be rejected. I promise!
Please join me here!I still don't get how this works. If I try to add a friend, I can't. But whenever I visit, I have 10 or 12 new friends. It is easier this way so I will not question why! ;-) <3
I still can't request friendships for some reason tho they get sent out anyway. Please request my friendship. I promise NO ONE WILL BE REJECTED.
"Everyone, please join me. I promise there will be NO rejections!Sherrie
P.S. But why is it STILL saying "request could not be sent"?"

Hi Sherrie, thanks for adding this fellow author to your circle of friends! I hope you'll consider adding my books What Would Nancy Do?, In the Company of Women, The Christmas to Remember and Finding Normal to your to-read list. I'm looking forward to reading your book reviews and recommendations. Happy reading!
Hmm, I have to say that a lot of people here are reading what I consider to be trash. I mean if you have to put scantily clad people on the cover, it tells me that you are appealing to people's basest instincts.I am not a prude. Sex in a story can push the plot forward when used seldom. But a book that is just about people having sex. Sorry, maybe I am an elitist, but it isn't for me.
I AM glad that people are reading though, trash or not. In fact, I remember my Eng. teacher telling us that Shakespeare's plays were filled with sex and violence. He was right, but that was just A PART of the story, not ALL of it.
Honestly, I'm not sure how I made all these friends, but that's why I joined so IT'S ALL GOOD! ;-) <3Peace,
Sherrie
Hi Sherrie! Thanks for the friendship request. If you have a chance, take a look at my Fantasy Romance from Wild Child Publishing, Dragon Wish.
