Hey, folks. I'd like to start a centralized place where 80-cent book people could post their books and if you have a Kindle you can just browse the smaller selection of 80 cent books here. So I'll start off with mine, Double Life. Here's a description: What if you could leap into your own overactive imagination? And what if you met your imaginary friends there? What if it was real? This all happens to an intelligent, imaginative boy named Josiah Jones, who finds a portal into his own world. Now, stuck inside, he has to fight the battle of his life inside his own head. This remarkable piece of storytelling is fast, fresh, and fun, and keeps you engaged in this boy's strange double life between the imagined and the real. http://www.amazon.com/Double-Adventures-Josiah-Jones-ebook/dp/B002BH4H3QHope this works! Dawson |

Good idea, Dawson! All the $.80 books in one place! The Nine Lives of Clemenza If you were able to choose what form of life you would live, what would you be? The Nine Lives of Clemenza explores the realms of spirituality and reincarnation. It introduces the possibility that as complex souls, we choose our lives, thus giving us the ultimate capability of free will. Clemenza starts out as a new soul in heaven, contemplating what form of life she will take to begin her journey. God grants each new soul nine lives, provided they bring back a moral lesson learned. Clemenza is diverse in her choices, exploring every facet of existence from air to the northern lights to a human being. Roles are reversed and souls intertwine during Clemenza’s many lives, as she learns the meaning and importance of pain, grief, loss, love and passion. http://www.amazon.com/Nine-Lives-Clemenza-ebook/dp/B0026P4JCC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1244384446&sr=8-2 |

I can personally recommend Nine Lives. I read it and it's just a wonderful and well thought-out (not to mention fun) tale.

Thanks for your support, Anne! I hope you enjoy it  I finished reading Dawson's Double Life just yesterday and have to say that I can't wait for the sequel. He's very talented and shows promise for an exciting career. I was keeping diaries at his age, with entries like "Crush of the Day."  |

Thanks Dawson.
I don't have a Kindle either...seems like if you can afford one, the savings end up paying for it in time.

If you're not a stickler about the 80-cent limit, folks might want to sample the just-reduced "Julius Caesar: A Brief Biography." The Kindle Edition is now 88 cents--but not for long!  |

Hey, if anyone had a hard time reading my book on my Kindle because of the formatting...get over it.
Just kidding...I've been working on that today and I'll be updating as soon as the slow DTP thing allows me to (it's updating something).

I'd like to know when it is fixed as well. I didn't get too far into the sample, but noticed several words used incorrectly (won instead of one on the first page, for example). |

Hmm...can you give me some examples, with their original sentences? I've had someone go through the book and point out a list of 24 errors, and no one has noticed any others since. Dawson |

I just landed a guest blog with Jeremy Robinson at www.jeremyrobinsononline.com! This should move a few books, I hope... Also, I was featured on Books on the Knob at http://booksontheknob.blogspot.com. That's the second blog in two days on which I've been featured without even asking. Awesome. I added the prefix to my ISBN via DTP and it's been "publishing" it for 10 HOURS. What's up with this? I can't change the manuscript with it doing this crap. Dawson |

My 'publishing' finally took with my memoir "Dad, Dog and Fish" second edition at 80 cents. If you like dogs (and all the good and bad that comes with them), family stories, fishing, hunting and drag racing, you may like this book. Whew. Anyway, it's ready for you all that are so inclined, see signature for link and thanks!
Cool cover, Permit! Hope it sells well! Dawson |

I just uploaded the fixed files! It'll probably take a couple of hours for it to update, but it's uploaded right now. Question: if a new version goes up of a book you've already downloaded, can you get the update for free? Thanks! Dawson http://www.amazon.com/Double-Adventures-Josiah-Jones-ebook/dp/B002BH4H3Q |
