We Interrupt This Blog... 07/23/2010
The Boss just talked to Emjae and Emjae doesn't want to sell the rest of her cover art cards. Emjae wants to raise money for cancer research. Here's what she said:
Make a donation to American Cancer Society, Susan G. Komen, or Think Cure (the Dodgers Baseball/City Of Hope partnership), send proof of donation to [email protected] and I'll send you one of my cover art postcards, autographed with my Sharpie and our heartfelt thanks.
We've Been Caballed! 07/23/2010
We have a new writer joining us; his book in in the review stages now and we hope to publish it in September. Steven Revare is the author of Raw; the oft mentioned Cheese Manifesto, and proprietor of the Slugworth Entertainment Cabal. He seems as excited about joining us as we are to have him. You can read his announcement here
Emjae Edwards' new book, A Lady Must Decline is a little different from her previous books. This is a mystery; with guns and chases and a tour of the Queen Mary. She also has a few of her virtual booksigned cover art cards available. If you already owned A Plane Proposal, but would still like the signed cover art, drop us a note, either here or at [email protected] Hope everyone's having a safe, comfortable summer. BGP
Openers and Closers 07/09/2010
I've been away for a couple of weeks, and missed out on the busiest time of the month, when we get our promotions lined up, and get books ready for publication. The Boss somehow managed to muddle along without me, though.
If anyone has any doubt that e-books are here to stay - James Patterson became the first man to sell one million ebooks, yesterday. Kristie Leigh Maguire's Inknpage was a big hit yesterday. Michael E. Benson's Openers had another big week, he's doing great. If you've read his book, drop us a note and tell us what you thought, or better yet, leave a review at Smashwords, Amazon.com or wherever you happened to purchase a copy. He'd love to hear what you thought. He has another in the series coming out in August, called Alvarado's Woman. It's a shorter book, with a lot of twisty and twisted characters, but they have Frank Petrovic to straighten everything out. Emjae's sixth book, The Lady Must Decline was supposed to be out on the second but got delayed at the editors. It should be out on Monday. If you're on the mailing list, watch for your twenty five percent discount code at smashwords. We're hoping to close out July with our best sales month ever. If we do, it will be because of you! BGP |
