Last day free …

22 Nov

The House in the Old Wood coverAt midnight tonight, the Kindle version of The House in the Old Wood returns to its normal price, $4.99.

That’s not bad, but nothing beats free, right?

I want to take this opportunity to again thank folks for sharing the word, and for downloading the book. By the second day of the giveaway, your response exceeded my wildest expectations, in number of downloads and in making Amazon’s Kindle Top 100 Free list.

Sometime overnight The House in the Old Wood slipped back off that list, but it was there for three days, which is three more than I expected.

And for that, I thank you.

I will endeavor to reward your interest, help and friendship with books that are worthy of your investment of time and money. I trust you’ll find that the next two books in the series, Karia’s Path and The Hall of the Prophetess, live up to that promise.

Thank you

The House in the Old Wood coverWith your help, The House in the Old Wood has gotten into – and well into – Amazon’s coveted Top 100 Free Kindle Books list.

It’s a list that just about every Kindle owner looks at, at least once.

The book sits at #39 as I write this. Thirty-nine. Wow.

I am so grateful to you.

  • I am grateful to the folks who shared and posted and told others about my free ebook.
  • I am grateful to the thousands of people who have downloaded The House in the Old Wood.
  • I am grateful for all the reviews, which helped people decide whether to download or not.

Can I just say I am flat-out humbled by your support for me and my writing?

I never expected to see my book reach so high. I was hoping for a large number of downloads, but we’ve already surpassed the number I was hoping for. And so I thank you for helping put The House in the Old Wood on Amazon’s Top 100 Free Kindle Books list.

I hope that you, my readers, are enjoying the journey as much as I am.

I wanted to throw you all a party, but, well, with the downloads being free and all, the only entertainment I could afford was this guy …

Party!

The House in the Old Wood coverThrough Friday, The House in the Old Wood is free for Kindle!

It’s my hope that a good number of readers will get hooked … I mean, interested, and addicted … I mean, want to read more, once they inhale … I mean, read The House in the Old Wood.

It’s my way of celebrating the release of The Hall of the Prophetess, the third of five books in the series, The Day Magic Died.

So spread the word! Free ebook!

I got mine! Now go get yours …

The Hall of the Prophetess
The Hall of the Prophetess is now available in paperback and Kindle editions from Amazon.com at the same low prices as Karia’s Path: $6.99 for the Kindle edition and $10.99 (list) for the paperback (though Amazon offers seemingly random discounts from the list price).

And this week only – here’s the surprise I promised you – the Kindle edition of The House in the Old Wood is free!

But wait, that’s not all! I have a second surprise for you! It surprised me, too. If you buy the paperback version this week, you’ll be getting a special edition! You see, I checked my proof – electronic and hard-copy – pretty well. I checked the front cover. I checked the back cover. I checked the front matter, the back matter and the text. Ah, good to go!

Um … not quite. I never checked the spine. Not until I sat down this morning to write this, with the book lying on the table in front of me, and I looked up and read on the spine, The Hall of the Prohetess. So rather than disrupt sales at this point, this week only, you can get your special “this author is a moron” edition.

This is a great time to get your friends reading the series:

  • Three books of the five book series are out
  • The first book is available free (through Friday only)
  • It’s a special edition! (this week only)

Like and share and tweet and email and all that stuff – please!

Oh, and buy your copy!
