I don't know how many of you know about this site, but I have a bit of a vested interest, so I'm going to promote it: http://www.kindlecheapreads.com. This month they are spotlighting a new Indie Author every day, and I'm their first!  Check it out. I think it's a site worth supporting, especially if they continue to promote Indies. The lady who I was working with on this was very nice and helpful.

I had contacted them a while back too, and I'm up Sept. 17th. Be sure and let us know how much action you see today, sort of like with KND.

If I remember correctly, I'm going the day after you, Jason. David Dalglish p.s. Your name is Jason, right? I just pulled that out of memory, but now I'm worried I'm an idiot calling you by a wrong name.

lol you got it. Jason all the way. That's great a few of us are on board with this thing. I wonder how their audience compares in size to KND.

Maybe I'm blind, but I can't see on their site where to contact them. Where are you finding their contact info? Thanks in advance.

J.M., at the bottom of the home page there is a link call, "Your Two Cents" (or something similar). It opens up a contact form.

 |  |  | The Peace Warrior Trilogy
Six hundred years after his death, a soldier's body is retrieved from the arctic lake where he perished. Reanimated by science, the warrior awakens to a civilization that has abolished war, outlawed violence, and cherishes Peace above all else. It is also a civilization that has been enslaved by an alien race called the Minith.
Armed with a new body and the skills of an ancient soldier, he must be the... Peace Warrior. |

Yes, I'm up this month, too. Looks like a great site and I'm busy sending it to my friends.

I've been tweeting and FBing it up today. Mentioned the site on the Kindle FB page yesterday and today. I'll be sure to keep it up every day for all the Indies this month.

My sales are up nicely today from the last few days, so I think this was a successful gig. There's nothing like free advertising!  And thanks for leaving the comment Linda! I'll be sure to stop by when everyone else is up too.

I simply asked if they would be interested in reviewing/featuring FT and then gave them the link to the Amazon kindle page. That's it! Go for it!

Well I jumped out of my comfort zone and I sent a request ... fingers crossed they'll say 'sure'.  Thank you for the encouragement!

I looked at the site awhile back, but there was something about the books having to be fairly clean, as far as violence/swearing goes. While I don't consider my book to have much of either, there is some, so I didn't think it would be accepted there.

Don't worry about that, Mary. There isn't a TON of swearing in mine, but there's enough that one of my Amazon reviewers complained about it, so if I were you, I'd go ahead and email them.

I got denied.  They want at least five substantive reviews.
