Indie Authors & Fans of Indie Books discussion

I'm looking to highlight other indie authors on my blog. If you have a blog you would be willing to do the same for me, please let me know.

Right now there is a waiting period (around 2 months).

If you are interested. I will place a picture, excerpts, and links of your book on my blog.

Love the way the blog looks.

Hi Jill! The blog looks great, and I am interested! Please let me know where I can send you info about my book. Here is my link:

Beth Michele

I just realized that I forgot to mention my book won't be out for a couple of weeks, so I'm not sure if you want to wait, or do it in advance. I'm flexible.

Thanks Jill!

Thanks Brian & Beth,

Beth, I PM you my info.

I am up for it! My three books are here:
The Loved, The Lost, The Dreaming
The Stolen: Two Short Stories
And The Stars Will Sing

And a fourth will be out in April I hope!

H.R. and Michelle, I sent you my info.

I'm new to this group so I'm jumping in, but I'm doing so cautiously. I have one free short story online and am about to e-publish my third novella,so publicity would be great. But, like I said, I'm still editing so it'll be a while. If you're still looking for authors, let me know and I'll get the info to you. Think sci/fi/fantasy romance novella.

Hi Jill: I am an indie writer and I would be very interested in being highlighted on your blog. I just posted work on Goodreads from my Paranormal Mystery Series Stone Quest. The first book is Desert Chimera; the second is Gallows Ascending. Both are available now on Kindle and will be soon on Amazon. I am about to offer a free download via KDP. More info available on my web site: www.violethillsproductions.com

Hi Florence & Leigh, I've PM you the questions. Fill them out and send them back and I will put you in the queue.

**** If anyone has a special date (ie book release, Free, or Giveaways) let me know so I can highlight blog.

Hi Jill, I'd welcome the opportunity to be a part of your effort. I've published 6 books, but the one I'd like to highlight is one of my latest, Boost Your eBook Sales Success. It's been getting consistently high marks and I have it scheduled for a free KDP promo next weekend (2/15-17). Here's a link to the page on Amazon if you'd like to take a look. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B0P2RKK

Hope to hear from you.

Hi Marquita,
I've messaged you some info.

Thanks

Hi Jill,

I'd be interested as well. My first novel just came out last month. A paranormal mystery, with a touch of Sci-Fi towards the end. Just let me know what you need from me and I'll get it to you.

I'd also be interested in having you guest blog on one of my 2 blogs.

Hi Allan & Carlos,

I pm you both the questions. Thank you.

If you're looking for mystery-thrillers, ask Seeley James. He's cool, approachabel and wrote a great book:

I'm interested if you think you'd like to highlight my trilogy. It's a dystopian political thriller. Price of a Bounty, Canvas Skies, Heart of Humanity - by S.L. Wallace.

Hi S.L.
I've messaged you.

Got the e-mailed questions Jill. I'll settle down with them later today. Thanks so much.

Hi - My new book, OUT, is available on Kindle and will be in print next week. I've published three books traditionally, but this one is a departure for me...much more controversial. It's speculative fiction novel about a world where same-sex couples are the norm and opposite-sex couples are the minority. Here's the link:

Hi Jill: Just a reminder that my KDP FREE BOOK promotion begins tomorrow, Sunday FEB 17 and runs thru Tuesday, FEB 19 for DESERT CHIMERA, the first book in my Metaphysical Suspense/Mystery Series.
http://amzn.to/YomRl1 (Amazon Author's page)
bit.ly/Uaq7U7 (VIolet Hills Productions)

Desert Chimera, the first book in the Metaphysical Suspense/ Mystery Stone Quest Series, introduces the reader to recluse, tracker, and reluctant twenty-eight year old psychic visionary Luke Stone and to his paranormal universe. Since his escape from the black magician Armand Jacobi seven years before, Luke Stone has been sequestered in the serene woods of Northern Michigan under the tutelage of Cherokee guide Shadow Wolf. When the shaman suddenly dies, Luke flees on a desperate cross-country quest. In the heart of Death Valley, Luke is assaulted by terrifying visions of the apocalypse. While praying in agony for release, a shimmering specter arises from the sands to stand beside him, but this is not the one Luke has so desperately sought. Torrential rains flood; rivers of mud flow. Luke is forsaken. But deep within the cacophony of the storm, Luke hears a voice calling. Following the call, Luke stumbles out of the wilderness and into Eppie Falco’s Desert Inn and Café. Gathered here also seeking shelter from the storm are an array of fellow travelers. However, upon a clap of thunder and a burst of lightning, the café door swings open and Armand Jacobi, the charismatic black magician Luke had seen as the vision in the desert and the man from whom he had run in stark terror now stands before him in the flesh. Among the travelers whom Armand eventually takes hostage in his struggle for dominion over Luke is Consuelo Arroyo, a woman with whom Luke is falling in love—something Luke never thought possible. As Luke’s battle with Armand heightens, as the lives of his fellow travelers lie more and more in the balance, Luke is confronted with the full horrors of his past. The battle that rages will culminate in either Luke’s final destruction or his ultimate redemption.

Hi Leigh, I've posted this on my blog today...

Jill not only has a super blog but emailed me a screen shot of the Leighpod vs the Master Stephen King on Amazon. Thanks so much, Jill! I couldn't find where my laptop is hiding the screen shot app! Ugh!! As my daughter would say! Well live and learn-- this was my first time out -- and my computer/techno knowledge has sky-rocketed...
