Hi Gang,
Today, I've got a new Killer Career excerpt up at

Thanks,

Our local library has 8 kindles available for its patrons. The DH and I both got on the waiting list, mainly so I could use one. His number was reached and we picked up the kindle on Sunday afternoon. Now I've got a kindle to read for 2 weeks! So far I'm really loving it, especially the current book I'm reading, My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.
What about you? Do you own a kindle? Or, have you tried someone else's? Would you like to?
I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.
What about you?
There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.
I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.
I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?
So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?

Been looking into e-publishing and I wonder what's the readership like? Is this something you find more or less a gain than what you've seen or experienced of or with traditional print houses?
P.S. Can't wait to check out your audio fiction:)

Thanks for the invite. I accept.
I have a question for you. If you give your material away, how do you make money? Do you have other material that you sell, advertised somewhere in what you give away?
I'm curious because in my business (publishing, marketing and fundraising with booklets) it works both ways. Some of my clients give their booklets aways to promote their books or business, and others charge for them. The ones who give the booklets away have an end goal in mind just as the ones who sell theirs.
I look forward to sharing with you on this network and I wish you much success!

Thx for the friend request. I've checked out your pages, listened to a bit of your story podcast, & just wanna say . . . you're brilliant! What a fantastic idea for getting your work out. I'm rather old-school in my experiences, & just starting to see what's out there in the big, wide world of new-horizon publishing.
Hope to keep in touch!
Blessings -- Linda Alexander
