Hello BOOK PLACE! I'm a published fantasy author. My last hardcover release, THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY is available at libraries and booksellers nationwide. Blackgloom has received glowing reviews in the national media and is being considered for a book-to-movie deal. In fact, one Hollywood producer has already dubbed the book, "BRAVEHEART meets THE LORD OF THE RINGS."

Let the Fun Begin!
Fortunately, we were set free from work today at 3:00. Now I can catch up on a few things before heading over to the Festival tonight to see a rock band called ARRA at the Frontier Stage.We have some DVDs at home from the library. We may just be able to watch one or two before we go, since the band doesn't start until 9:15. Or, we may want to get pver there a bit early and eat desert, though we shouldn't.
Last night I had a hamburger at home, but at the Festival I could't resist a DQ Reese Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard. They've got pies, cheese cake, ice cream, brownies, and Blizzards. I wish I could eat them all,but I'm being bad enough! I have no willpower when it comes to good food.
What about you? Do you cave in and eat special treats at special events?
Catching My Breath

How Do You Sell Books?
How do you sell books? I know I've asked this question before in various forms, but now that I'm coming up to the date of Killer Career's release on August 15, I'm wondering what's the most effective approach.
Tell me, please. What do you do to sell books?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.
When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.

Thanks for all of your help. And I'm sure that I will need all the luck I can get.
Thanks for befriending this fellow Five Star author!
Good luck with the possible movie deal. I'll keep an ear out for it.

Thank you for all the comments. I'm pleased to see such a talented group congregating here at BP. I hope you all have a terrific holiday season. As a side note on comments, please do not post large images on my page. I'm on a dial-up system and those images slow my access WAY down. I will delete any comment that contains imagery. Thanks!
