I don't post often...part of it's the rules and part of it is that it's simply impossible to even find or follow certain authors in the forum.
So, at any rate, I want to let y'all know -- you can now sign up for email delivery of my blog if you're trying to keep up with me. On the left sidebar of my blog, there's a sign-up form. You can unsubscribe at any time. I blog a few times per week; the email won't go out more than once a day and won't happen at all if I don't post. Please sign up if you're interested in keeping track of me. I've been asked about a newsletter that would come out when I have a new book--I'm trying this instead, mainly because it's automated. If you have feedback, by all means, let me know! Blog: www.BearMountainBooks.com |

Thanks for stopping by the thread Jerry--you can probably start your own to talk about your books too!

Because there is a byline, I can't post this review about "The Sworde-Edge Blonde" by Alex Bledsoe in the reading groups. But if anyone is interested, I wrote a review for ebookworm.us:
http://www.ebookworm.us/2011/09/17/g...-alex-bledsoe/ I recommend the book with some caveats! Enjoy! |

My review of Spider's Bite by Jennifer Estep is up on SpineTingler Magazine:
http://www.spinetinglermag.com/2011/...-estep-review/ Spinetingler publishes dark crime fiction (quite a bit darker than I usually read and a lot darker than I write). Estep's book is about an assassin though so the review fits in there quite well. There's a short story by Stephen Rogers out there for free to give you some idea of what the magazine publishes (a little darker than I prefer, but it's got humor. Dark humor...): http://www.spinetinglermag.com/2011/...phen-d-rogers/ Maria Last edited by BearMountainBooks; 09-20-2011 at 03:19 PM. |

I haven't updated this thread in a long time because I lost track of it. But there are new free short stories in the blog store (by myself and other authors as well. Just go to the blog store and scroll to near the bottom. The freebies start about 2/3rds of the way down. )
Check the front page of the blog for some great bargains--Patricia Briggs is on sale and Rhys Bowen has gone indie with her new series--and it's only 3.99 for the first book! There's also guest reviews and some other sales! www.BearMountainBooks.com Edited to add: The new Frank Tuttle book is out!!! Mini-review on the blog--I loved it, but then I haven't read a Tuttle yet that wasn't awesome! Edited to add: There's also a great sale on Patricia Briggs, and a Rhys Bowen too. Some good sales going on this week!!! WOOT! Last edited by BearMountainBooks; 11-16-2014 at 04:14 PM. |

For all you authors/cover artists out there (or those making their own Christmas cards?)
I asked depositphotos, my favorite stock art site, about holiday discounts and they said they don't usually do one! However, I sweet talked them into a ten percent off credits or subscription. To obtain: http://tracking.depositphotos.com/af...=4&aff_id=2615. When you land, enter this code: CS3798567 on this page: http://tracking.depositphotos.com/af....html%3Faff%3D The discount is for 10 percent. The best deal is to buy a month long sub, download 5 pieces of artwork a day and arrange to your heart's content. This offer is only good through the end of December. Looks like I might be doing artwork over Christmas! Remember if you buy a subscription -- it will automatically renew unless you cancel. The 30 day sub is awesome and what I usually buy. Then towards the end I cancel and wait until the next time I need artwork. You can download the purchased images for several months after your sub ends (I download right away, but that's just me.) Merry Christmas! |

Dragons of Wendal has been nominated by review site, Books and Pals for a Readers Choice Award. So I blogged about it, of course. I'm not sure I'm allowed to copy the blog post and link to the voting here, but I'll start with that and change it if I'm told I can't link directly to Books and Pals!
Post: Books and Pals been around since early days and has continued to produce quality reviews. Being nominated as one of their top reads of the year is WONDERFULLY THRILLING for me. Of course, being nominated means there is work for you, the reader–because nominations mean that the books nominated need votes. Big Al and Pals makes it worth your while too. For every category you vote in, you’re entered into a prize drawing (some nice prizes too!) So if you are so inclined, please mosey on over and look for Dragons of Wendal in the young adult category…and vote for it!!! (Scroll down to the “entry” fields for the giveaway. Log in (just means supply your email in case you win or use FB). Pull down the Young Adult category and you will see the list of books eligible for votes. Select one and you have one entry.) http://booksandpals.blogspot.com/201...rs-choice.html Check out the other nominations so long as you are over there and spread the word. Frank Tuttle’s latest has been nominated in the Fantasy category if you happen to read his Markhat series! Mathew Iden's work is also listed (I think it was under mystery or thriller). I've read his first book in the series (A Reason to Live) and it was excellent. He's been picked up by a trad publisher, although I don't know if it is for this series or a new series. Just had to share!!!! Maria |
