Fishing’s Greatest Misadventures presents twenty-six true stories which cover the spectrum from terrifying to comical to downright bizarre.

*waving*

Hi, all! I'm Erin, my Kindle is Oscar and I've already read three free books on him while nursing my son. My ridiculously awesome husband got me a Kindle for my birthday and I'm afraid I've already spent far more time than necessary checking out skins and covers. It's really fantastic to have this community available to help point me towards free books (woo-hoo!) and tips and tricks for using Oscar better.

Hi

I'm Deanna from Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico by way of Ohio, California, Oregon, California, Mexico, California, Texas, Mexico, California, Mexico and Texas (Phew!).

I bought my K2 in December as a late Xmas gift for myself. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my Kindle! And aside from that, I like to cook and chat about, ummm, my Kindle and books Tongue

I've been hanging around the Amazon K boards so this is the next logical progression.

I've got a question. What is the best way to increase the amount of people that buy my new short story?Their isnt really an easy way to market on kindle from what I've seen. Blogs help a little, but then you end up giving away all or almost all of the product. I seriously dont know what to do.

   Greetings and Welcome, New Kindle-owners!! We are so glad you found KindleBoards! We have many areas that you probably will like. Have you been to The Book Corner yet?  That's the area for discussions about books (naturally Cheesy ). That's also where you will find threads about books Recommended by our Members and a list of additional sites for Book Lovers.
Then there is the Book Bazaar where our member/authors post about their books and hold discussions about writing, publishing and many other topics. That is also where you will locate Bargain Books and even Free Books threads where you can get reading material at low or no cost! Here is a link to get you started: Master list of free & under $1 titles available from Amazon.
     If you have a question about your Kindle or it's usage, check out the FAQ or the forum about Tips, Tricks and Trouble Shooting . Or, just ask your question. We have many helpful and knowledgeable people here at KB  and we feel there is no such thing as a "dumb" question. Questions about KindleBoards may be answered at Your guide to Forum Speak! linked from Forum tips. If not, once again, ask away! To keep everything running smoothly, we ask that everyone read Forum decorum.
Another popular place is Let's Talk Kindle, where all things in the Kindle world are posted about. Be sure and check out the Photo Gallery, where pictures of members, pets, flowers, landscapes or just almost anything interesting can be found.
     Have you been to the Accessories area? There you will see information about covers, skins, lights, bags, stands and many other items to allow you to personalize your Kindle.
Looking to just kill some time while you are waiting for your Kindle or if you have your kindle, want to try something different? Try INFINITY Game - Word Association or The "INFINITY" Thread: KEEP POSTING...Ready, Set,... GO!!! in the Not Quite Kindle area.
Sorry for the long post, but there is just so much to do, learn and like about KindleBoards that I just get carried away. Smiley

Hi all, I'm Lisa and have been lurking for a week or so on these boards. I'm not a Kindle owner yet, but my daughter is. I've been waiting for the Kindle to be able to organize books, and now that it can I'm dying to get one!!!

But.... but..... I hope I don't get thrown off the boards for this, but I am also looking at the Nook. *whispers* I actually held one today. The Kindle is still my #1 choice because of the ability to organize though. The thing is I won't be able to buy an e-reader for a few months so I'm wondering how the recent Nook upgrades and possible Kindle announcement in the fall will factor into my decision.

So I am here, reading all I can about the Kindle. I've already made a friend and truly enjoy being here Smiley

Well, the good news about Kindle is the price just dropped to $189 today, so now you can get it for roughly half its original release price. You could wait for the newer "Kindle 3" whenever that comes out, but I suspect it will not be nearly that cheap, since they'll probably be loading it up with latest/greatest hardware.
