ADMIN: A self-serving gift!

Hi loyal readers,

I’m giving away copies of my ebook The Last Christmas Gift: A Heartwarming Holiday Tale of the Living Dead to anyone who wants it.  The only catch is you have to read it, and then I would appreciate it (but can’t require or demand it of course) if you post an Amazon review after you read it. (Doesn’t need to be a positive review, although I’m fairly confident…)

Just comment that you want it, and I’ll send it to you.

ADMIN: The field is bare.

Possibly because we’ve been doing God’s work here lo these many years, there aren’t as many bad covers out there — or at least, there aren’t as many that, like low-hanging fruit, are as easily collected.  You may have been noticing a growing number of covers from Smashwords; that’s because Smashwords allows me to sort by “most recent,” rather than by any popularity metric, and thus find the bad covers without having to wade through all the stuff that normal people understandably gravitate toward.

That means, however, that I have to spend more and more hours to fill the hopper each week.

So instead of increasing that time allotment, I’m going to go on a more reduced publishing schedule: What I find is what I post. I’ll make sure there’s at least one cover per day, but pickings might be slim after that.

Now I know what the Old West sheriff feels like after he “sure cleans up that town” and has to resort to nabbing jaywalkers to make himself feel useful.
