Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know, I am working on building a new online store. I am more than happy to add other authors books as well. I must say I am learning right now, please understand it might take some time lol. Also, any feedback is welcomed. The only thing, your book has to be available on Amazon. Best Regards!

ISBN-13: 978-0615150529

Thank you again for being so considerate of your fellow authors.

Dee,
It is up, I did not do the subcategory though, I was not sure about breaking down it that much. As it grow, I might revisit that idea.
If you have any comment or thoughts please let me know. As far as I am concerned, this is for all of our books, I think everyone should be able to have their say. Best to you, please tell other authors. This is working exactly they way I thought, this is going to be nice. Plus I have noticed they are stored in the sequence I enter them in. first up is in the front. :)

Hi Kristin,

Listing Sons of Avalon: Merlin's Prophecy under Fantasy would be perfect. I just included the Subcategory as a side note :]

Again, thank you for being so thoughtful.

KB

Kristen,
Thank you.

This book tells the story about a father with cancer and how he deals with telling his child about Cancer and dying.It is a picture book-so families can talk to their children about a touchy subject of cancer.To help with a families' grief and the confusion that children feel regarding death or sickness of a loved one.

This is why I said family.It is not only for a Child.
Thanks for adding the book to the store.

Apologies for the tags... I cut and pasted Amazon links, and did not realize I'd included the tags that didn't relate to genre.

Thank you Kristin for adding my book. It looks awesome.

Thank you both for your very kind words. I really am just trying to help us all out. I do have a favor, would someone mind looking at what Murphy didn't know on amazon. I am trying to see if this store is linked to my page. I am on Amazon Connect, so I am seeing everything else. I was just wondering if the bookstore is linked up as well there or if I need to add it. Thanks!

KB

I looked at the item page and your profile page and couldn't see a link anywhere.

ok ty I will work on it, I have it on my website, i was hoping to have it there too:)

Hi, Kristin.

Thanks again so much for listing my other book. As promised, I'm following up with another of my 2 books to be listed on your online store.

301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions

ISBN-13: 978-1402203855

Genre: Career

Tags: Interviewing, Job-Hunting, Job Interviews, Human Resources, Guides, Interview Preparation, Career, Educational Books for Adults

I'm wondering if there is any way to have all of my books together or is that too ambitious? If so, it would be great to list "Bad Bosses, Crazy Coworkers" first (as it's new), "301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions second, and the next one, last. Don't know if this is possible. Thanks again so very much for all of your help!

Best,

Vicky Oliver

Vicki,
They are placed in the order I add them, Can you send me the info for the other book, that way at least two can be together.

kb

Okay. Thanks for letting me know. My third book is:

Power Sales Words: How to Write It, Say It, and Sell It with Sizzle

ISBN-13: 9781402206504

tags: advertising, business, business writing, cold calling,
copywriting, marketing, sales, selling, writing, writing skills

Thank you so very much, Kristin! This group is great.

Best,

Vicky Oliver

Vicki, I need the genre of the third book. Also I do not have a career, so I put it under business.

KB

vicki I still need the genre you would like plz

KB

Oh, sorry! I missed your post I think in the group.

"Power Sales Words" is a book that teaches people how to market themselves with confidence. If you have a "marketing" section or "sales" section or "business writing" section that would be my first choice.

If not, "business," the category you picked for "301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions" and "Bad Bosses, Crazy Coworkers & Other Office Idiots" is perfect.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!

Best,

Vicky

Thanks for the offer!

Please include my book as well "Death of an Ordinary Life"

ISBN 1-882918-11-8

Genre: Fiction/Spirituality

Thanks.
