From kat, may I ask a favour?

From: katlaughing

When I first published a paperback copy of WindWords of Wyoming, in 2004, there were a good number of you who were kind enough to say lots of very nice things about it and I am most gratefull.

Now that I have released it in e-book form, I would like to ask a favour. I won't know how well it is selling for awhile, now, because it takes time for the online retailers to report sales to the company I went through and they only give out quarterly reports and checks.

Anyway, in order to boost sales of the e-book, I would like to ask any of you who have read the original paper copy and liked it, if you would mind going on the retail sites and leaving a comment or review of it. Even just a simple one-liner would be helpful. I think books sell better if they have readers' comments.

If you feel so inclined, you may find it on Amazon, google e-books, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo books. Just search for WindWords of Wyoming. Or, you could go to my page at BOOKBREWER and scroll down for the links.

Thank you, very much.

Here are some places where you can see previews, post comments, and see others' comments. Look for links or buttons that say "write a review" or "rate this item." Sometimes you can do both.


Google Books – ebook edition

Google Books – print edition

Barnes & Noble

Amazon

Kobo

WorldCat.org

Thanks so much, Jim! I didn't know about the WorldCat listing.

As soon as I am able, I do plan to re-release a new paper copy of this book. It will be sometime this spring.

Thanks, again,

kat

Thanks, gnu. You can actually read the first few pages at the Google e-book link.

This is a link to the Amazon from which Mudcat gets a link in case anyone is interested. You have to enter title from there. I'm really just looking for comments, though.

Thanks, anyway,

kat

LibraryThing.com is another possible place to list/rate/review it. No reviews there so far, but the one member listing it has apparently given it 5 stars.

your words go down as smooth and warm as a steamy mug of hot chocolate yoga.

Thanks, Haruo!

Donuel, love it. Would you please consider posting it at any of the above links? As the author, I cannot transfer compliments/reviews as it is not allowed. Thank you, very much, though!
