If your book features a fairy tale, myth, or legend inspiration, this is the place for it. No erotica please. All mailing list sizes are fine, but only authors with 100+ clicks per promo may have more than THREE ebooks.

In the middle of: Creativity by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. It's a tome of a book but so interesting about innovation and creativity and what leads to it.

 

So good!

Smart. Extremely well written. Well acted. Cinematography, sets, music - just everything. And above all - it's really good Star Wars!

I wonder if this is Amazon's way of discouraging short paperbacks. After all, it already raised printing costs, so it doesn't seem as if it would be a cost issue. Perhaps someone miscalculated, and someone else has now realized that Amazon is somehow not doing as well on short paperbacks as it thought. But if so, it would seem adjusting the printing costs would make more sense than lowering the royalty.

And the thread rises from the dead...fittingly, given that writers are almost always readers.

From things I've read recently, I highly recommend Evelyn Skye's A Year Ago in Spain. It's a moving romance with a strong fantasy element.

I'm currently reading book 7 in Ben Reeder's Demon Apprentice series. (A young boy is sold to a demon by his own father. He learns enough tricks to escape from the demon and dedicates himself to compensating for all the evil he's done while enslaved by the demon. With the help of a werewolf girlfriend and other supernatural associates, he still has many tough scrapes with the forces of evil.) No one would confuse it with Shakespeare, but it's very entertaining.

I just finished One Two Three by Laurie Frankel. The titular characters are sixteen-year-old triplets who live in a town poisoned by a chemical company that escaped all responsibility. Now the same company wants to reopen its plant under supposedly safer conditions. Most adults are seduced by the prospect of new jobs and more money for the impoverished town. The girls' mother continues to try legal avenues to stop the company. The triplets, all of whom are emotionally scarred, one of whom is autistic, and one of whom has severe physical issues, decide to take matters into their own hands. Their possible in--the handsome but naive son of the plant manager, who falls in love with one of them. But love doesn't just go one way, creating complications that none of them could have anticipated. And incriminating evidence seems always to be just out of reach.
