I'm guessing writers and authors should also be avid readers, right? I hope my assumption is correct. Since this is the digital age, a Kindle would be in order, correct? Well, I want a kindle but I have not been able to acquire one. It's on my list but since I thought I had to pay for it, I hadn't quite gotten to it yet on my scale of preference. I just found out this morning that there are FREE applications that can be downloaded to your phone or pc to enable you to purchase kindle books from amazon.com. That makes me want to jump for joy or scream. All these are available:
FREE Kindle App for Blackberry
FREE Kindle App for iPhone
FREE Kindle App for PC
and more...
To download any of the FREE Kindle Apps available so far, click the following link.
FREE Kindle App for iPhone, Windows PC, Mac, Blackberry and iPad
Hope this helps. This is the real FREE. If you want to carry the proper Kindle device itself around however, you still need to buy it. I can't help you there!
If you like my post, please order a copy of The Only Way is Up on kindle. It's only $2.99 for a limited time. If it still says $5.99, give it a day or two to update please. And do leave me a review as well will you? That's all I ask.
Much appreciation.
PEACE.

Atlanta Black Book Expo
I just found out about the 1st Annual Atlanta Black Book Expo. I am excited. It sounds like a winner. I live in Atlanta and that is obviously a plus for me that it's taking place in my city! But I just thought I'd put it out there for anyone who has not heard about it and is interested. I will definitely be getting a table. I wonder if we can share though? Hmmm. That's the cheap part of me speaking. Please click here for a link to the website for Atlanta Black Book Expo and do check them out on facebook and twitter as well. Authors, I hope to see you there. But it is also for vendors and a host of others.
Have a blessed week.

PS: We cannot share table! It is addressed in their FAQs section.

Block of ISBNs now less expensive!
Good morning to you my people! It had been rumored toward the end of last year that ISBN cost was going to be cheaper in 2010. Well, guess what? It is so! This only applies to the block of 10 ISBNs however.
It is $250 for a block of 10 when purchased from My Identifiers which is the link where you can also purchase a single ISBN or an ISBN and bar code. The cost for these still remain at $125 and $150 respectively however. On this site, you get your ISBNs immediately. There is no $30 Reg fee here.
When purchased online with the normal processing timeframe of 3 weeks, a block of 10 ISBNs is now $245 from RR Bowker. For those who were not in the "know" it used to cost $325. It may not seem like a big difference but believe me, it is! Every little help or break one can get counts...Now, if you can split that block with someone...(There's also a $30 Reg fee which makes the total cost for a block of 10 ISBNs $275). The cost is higher for express processing etc.
The barcodes are $25 each with bulk discount available.
Basically, it's like getting 10 ISBNs for the price of 2. Now, who would not want to take advantage of that and just keep writing? Pls let me know if you would like to split a block of ISBNs with me!!! Click here to email me.
Thank you RR Bowker!
