Day 2 and both Amarna I & III are currently on both Top 100 charts again (though they fell off briefly yesterday)

My poor, underrated Book 2! (laugh) Please read it. It really is very good and adds a LOT to the trilogy.

Ok, now I think people are buying I & III as they are the ones on the list - widening the gap II has to catch up!

Funny but sad. (laugh)

And no, I don't watch my ranking constantly - though I tend to check it daily when my books rank Top 100 just to see how long it lasts. (wink)

Grea.

I'm lower down now but Amarna I started this morning at the same position on both Top 100 Ancient Historical Fiction & Historical Middle Eastern! #56!

Let's face it. I don't post too often; because, well, who has the time - what with building the next Scientology type cult and plotting to take over the world - one adjective at a time.

But fear not, for all is not lost! I somehow managed to get my hand caught in a couple more cookie jars. As a result, I am granting you, dearest reader, the chance to win a bunch of random crap you can pass off as (insert December holiday here) gifts you actually paid for! These include a very good chance for you to rack up a ridiculous number of entries to potentially win one of TWO $100 Amazon gift cards and miscellaneous other things you are too stingy to pay for out of pocket. (You cheap bastards!)

________________________________________

Though most of these offers are ebook centered, you can always Mr. Monopoly it, sell Park Place and buy the paperback version instead.

But Grea, I can't read ebooks because I don’t have a kindle or other mobi capable device.

Liar!

Any device you can read this blog post on can be instantly transformed into a kindle or mobi capable device with the click of a link....and the acceptance of an app download complete with more permissions than you can shake a stick at....or than you give your significant other.

Amazon has a free app that lets you read Kindle or mobi ebooks on your laptop, tablet, computer, mobile phone and/or toilet. In short, if you can read this post, you can read any mobi ebook...that's in a language you actually know how to read.

How do you get it? From here: https://www.amazon.com/kindle-dbs/fd/kcp

Want a free epub (such as Nook) ebook reader that does the same thing except for .epub files? https://www.adobe.com/solutions/ebook...

Now, on with the shameless self promotion.

Please note: These are sci-fi and fantasy titles 'cause well, I'm whoring my dark fantasy/horror books these days like a high class pimp who just bought stock in a condom factory.

Win one of TWO $100 Amazon Gift Cards: http://sffbookbonanza.com/amazon-gift...



Sure they'll want your name, email address and the soul of your first born, but let's face it, you never really liked that kid anyway and just think of how much you'll save on not having to take them to church anymore! #WinWin

99 Cent Ebooks

For those of you ballin' enough to buy Velveeta to go with your boxed wines, SFF is also featuring a haphazardly curated collection of 99 cent Sci-Fi and Fantasy titles thru 11/29: http://sffbookbonanza.com/99c-books/



And yes, this time I do have a dog in this race.

Which one?

Why the one with the wag-a-ly tail of course:

Miael: The Couturier

Is this a story about a poor mountain man named Jed? No.

But I will tell you what it is. The Couturier is a really hard to spell and troublesome to pronounce word describing a sexy little paranormal romance short story I put together as a supplement to Miael: Lovers.

I had so much fun with it, in fact, that I've decided to create a new prequel trilogy using the protagonists in Miael as the stars....eventually.



Synopsis:

As the hour came now upon midnight, as Duchess Cressida Courtlandt stood alone on the nearly deserted London street, she could not quite compel herself to enter the Groversner Hotel - to carry on towards the couturier's penthouse suite and some horrible temptation, some horrible ruination worse than anything Bedlam had to offer.
--------
On Goodreads, the Miael series is rated 4.02 based on 44 ratings & reviews.

This short read is available at all the usual suspects for only 99 cents: http://greaalexander.seamonkeyink.com...

If it's not, you take that retailer aside and you shake a mighty stick at them!

And finally, more 99 cent offerings running at least between November 23-29th (as most place their books at 99 cents prior to the start date and keep it at that price for the month or longer): http://sffbookbonanza.com/99c-books/

I can't get a Bookbub to save my life and am likewise snubbed from sales promotional groups by Barnes and Noble, Kobo and My book Cave.

However, as of right now, Amarna: The Complete Series is the #1 Best Seller in Amazon Australia IN TWO CATEGORIES! (And at full price, no promotional newsletters. (laugh))

To quote Nelson from the Simpsons: Ah-ha!

Of course, though it will likely not last long, it's still quite amusing. Screenshots are here:

See it live, before it disappears:

Thank you and lots of love to my readers, especially those in Australia who got me to #1.

Hmmm...I guess maybe I should change my descriptions to read #1 Bestselling Author. Or not. (laugh)

Cheers!
