Mindjacker is #1 Bestseller on Smashwords

Last week I advertised a promotion on variuos discussion forums, including Nookboards, KindleBoards, eBook Gab, and Absolute Write, where you could download the ebook version of "Mindjacker" for free from Smashwords using a coupon code. The promotion ended last night and when I checked this morning it was # 3 on the bestselller list. This morning, I extended the free down load offer to December 12th and it has moved to # 1.

Like most serious, realistic writers, I am not in this for the money, just a "love of the game" and establishing a readership. If anyone would like to take advatage of the offer:

Here is the link http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/17083?ref=athenagwis and be sure to enter the NEW coupon code ZX83E to download for free.

  5. I am so there. I might already have a copy, but having it on the Kindle makes it even easier to read. Thanks Sean

  6. Paul- You are the man, and someone I look up to as a writer.

    Glenna- Anything to make your life easier ;). My wife is a huge a Patriots fan, but I'm going to ask her if we can read Pride and Prejedice together tonight, instead of wathcing the game.

  7. Don't forget to remind her she can DVR the game, or maybe you could volunteer to read it out loud to her, in your best English accent of course, during the commercials and time outs.

  8. I laughed out loud at that last exchange.

    Never mind, Sean. When you're both done with the Patriots game, you can make yourself a cup of coffee and watch this.

  9. Love it. That is a far cry from his role in The Wire, that's for sure. My fancy new Boondog Saints hairdo coupled with an ascot, waistcoat, knickers, silk stockings, and black buckle shoes, it is going to be one hell of a post game celebration!!

  10. Yep. Maybe better not let her watch it first, though, because that guy is one hard act to follow.

    Speaking strictly of his acting skills, of course.

  13. Seana, you just made my day!! Wish I could put that on my ipod, however, I'd probably never get anything done if I did.

    Sean, definitely don't let your wife see that first. I do hope you too record your reading of it, I'm betting it would be.....interesting. ;)

  14. Glenna- I just need to find a powdered wig and I'm off to the races. Tom Brady cannot be surpassed by anyone in my wife's affections, although from what I'm reading, he might need a wig soon

  15. Glenna, yes, you should check out those other Carte Noire readings. They are short, but good excerpts. Four handsome talented actors with British accents. What more could one possibly want?

  16. Sean, can't wait to see those pictures.

    Seana, I plan to, and as for what more one could want...four handsome talented actors with Irish accents? Not that I'm complaining in the least, that reading did make for a nice thought before work.

  17. Dominic West is so good that he actually made me rethink my position on A Fraction of the Whole, a book I had previously not been impressed with enough to finish.

    Sean, you'll notice that he isn't wearing a white wig, either.
