hi Annie, should I take a chance on this - don't know you very well. :] I am not self-published, my recent ebooks are with Elderberry Press, available in ebook format through smashwords, amazon, b&n, any retailer. they were released almost 3 mos ago, 2 cozy mysteries featuring Sally Nimitz...

Annie, couldn't be happier that your home was spared when so many lost their homes... we have friends in Ruidoso, N.M., whose home also survived the fires down there when over 250 buildings burned. the photos of the fires, so overwhelming how terrible and breathtaking at the same time. we have...

whoa, Jewel, that is quite a list! obviously you are an avid reader. I like mysteries, too, some of my favorites being some oldies like Rex Stout and Dorothy Sayers, some current writers being Anne Perry, Dick Francis [okay, he's passed on also but only recently], and Charles Todd. I have...

welcome Jewels! care to share some of your favorite books/authors?

Darie, I have to basically agree with the input you have gotten from the others. you lost me after the first few sentences, it goes on too long. hope the input you are getting helps you.

beer good, I totally agree! the reviews are for the readers 1st and foremost, but any author should be interested in what they have to say, no matter who the reviewer is.

free sample on books Annie, that is a great way to get a good feeling for the book and not waste your time! I hate paying good money for some thing I am disappointed in, and it does happen, esp. now that I belong to a book club and someone else recommends something I wouldn't pay for and/or...

modern authors... in light of your choices, have you read anything by Cormac McCarthy? he has come up in other discussions lately, and altho my personal tastes do not lead me to read anything else he has done, you might enjoy McCarthy.

hello hello Annie!, from a fellow Colorado native. we live in the southeastern part of the state, at the foothills of the Rockies. nice and cool at night, even if still a bit warm during the day.

ebook discussion what a great quote! I was one of those dragged into the ebook world because my nook was a gift from my son. now I use both the books and the ebooks and my reasons for doing so are largely the same as yours. I have found some books more reasonable to download, and others much...

criticism should be carefully considered, and constructive. if in that light you read a book and have serious reasons for not liking it, say so. other people who read the reviews to decide if they want to read the book should get good information. the author should Want to have feedback good...

is the good any good? hi C. Bob, in other words, is the Author any good??? every writer needs to be honest with themselves about that. people can love to sing or do a number of other things and still not be very good at it, right? also, have noticed many people have Great ideas, esp. in...

have just read most of the posts all the way back to the beginning of this discussion - very interesting! my son dragged me into the 21st century last year giving me a nook. I am an old fashioned girl and belong in the group of "love the feel of a book." however, the ebook world has its place...

just finished All The Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy, not something I would have picked up, but it was for a book club. would give it about a 3.... rather sad, depressing, at times hard to follow, and at the end you think, "what was the point?" guess the author would say if I didn't get it...

thank you Landslide, for Your welcome also. :]

in reply, about my cozy mysteries did not get to this forums yesterday but got your message today, Pontalba. sorry, only one cat, referred to upon occasion! I trust you enjoyed The Cat Who.... cozy mystery series by Lillian Jackson Braun? she wrote a ton of them, pretty fun stuff, and passed...

in response... Pedar I really like your quote.
