Krishna: Hi, Cool blog, this!

rob: Good point, Amelia. The hours people spend reading are the greatest cost involved. Given that we sometimes get fooled and buy books we don't enjoy, it's nice to have a low cover price, too--if not for the successes, at least for the rejects.Rob

amelia: You may buy books because they are cheep (so you can fill a bookcase) or because you may or may not want it. But I hope people do not read books because they are cheap. time is to valuable

Pika: blog hopping here

BUTTERFLYS: HELLO

Rob: Thanks, Amelia. Still, lots of people seem to think that stupid people doing stupid (embarassing) things is the ultimate in humor.Rob

amelia: I am with you. I do not find people doing stupid things funny. I find that people think I am funniest when I say the truth. Odd.

Rob: Hi Amelia,Sorry to hear about Da Vinci. It's possible your reading habits are a bit more sophisticated than the average. Since I get paid for sitting in basements, it's not all bad.rob

amelia: P.S. I got DaVinci code on tape. Listened to it but got annoyed. felt manipulated so stoped also felt like I knew the end already. Finally I think goddess worshipers can be just as bad as any other religion.

amelia: good luck on your classes. What a bad Idea sit in a basement in Hawaii while Karen plays outside.

Carpatian Shadows--published

I've been working hard lately and today I had a payoff. I finally completed the publication process for CARPATIAN SHADOWS Vol. 1 by Lea Schizas, William Koonce, Eric Keith, Marcia Berneger, and Charles Mossop. This contemporary fantasy has aspects of horror with a scary Transylvanian castle and legends (and creatures) of ancient evil.

You can read more about CARPATIAN SHADOWS (Vol. 1) here: www.booksforabuck.com/sfpages/sf_07/carpatian_shadows_vol1.html.

Today Karen and I made the three hour drive to Shreveport, Louisiana where Karen addressed the local chapter of the Romance Writers of America on the perils and potholes of plotting. It was an excellent workshop. Although I'd heard her give this workshop before, I always keep my ears open. Just because you've heard the words before doesn't mean you were ready to receive the meaning. I think I got a bit more this time--which will help me write better.

Since we were traveling, I took along my eBookWise. For a special treat, I let myself start reading A HIGHLANDER FOR CHRISTMAS by Sandy Blair. Sandy is a talented author (and Golden Heart Winner) who writes the popular 'In a Kilt' series of light paranormal historicals/time travels. CHRISTMAS is a lot of fun--and it'll be out around Christmas so I got an early look.

I'm going to make (big surprise?) CARPATIAN SHADOWS Vol. 1 the www.BooksForABuck.com book of the day. Ancient evil, a Transylvanian castle, and a group of tourists held up by a storm add up to a dangerous situation. It's only $1 for the first month (regular price, $3.99). Learn more, read the forward for Free, or buy the entire eNovel here: www.booksforabuck.com/sfpages/sf_07/carpatian_shadows_vol1.html. (Available in HTML, Adobe Acrobat PDF, Mobipocket, Palm DOC, and Microsoft Reader (LIT) formats. Here's the cover (cover design by Karen Leabo):
