Sweltering Summer Swag: August Free Ebooks & Potential Prizes
Now that you're all done calling out to "Son of SeaMonkey" three times while staring into your bathroom mirror - naked and bathed only in candlelight...while intermittently gargling a Bloody Mary....

Gimme Gimme Free!
Well, it's that time of the month again!
No, not the time of the month where your (or your significant...or insignificant other's) feminine hygiene products help you have the best life ever. You know the one where you (or she) frolic in the cooling surf of a disturbingly beautiful beach... in complete and utter self-absorbed, oblivious joy - all the while attracting the local shark population in closer to shore?
No, instead, it's time to peruse the August free ebook offers!

SHAMELESS AUGUST FARROW PLUG
August Farrow has recently released her 4th brand new photobook series. The photos in these books have been taken by August Farrow with cameras of varying powers over a number of years (including, rarely, a cell phone) and depict the crazy variety of flora and fauna she's seen over the years.
NEWEST
Wildlife (excludes birds, insects & spiders but includes (in some books) awesome things like bobcat and bear): http://augustfarrow.seamonkeyink.com/...
RECENT
Birds: http://augustfarrow.seamonkeyink.com/...
Insects & Spiders (Arthropods): http://augustfarrow.seamonkeyink.com/...
Houston Garden Center: http://augustfarrow.seamonkeyink.com/...
It's not a "historically" this has been here or its range should extend to there, it's a what is actually y there that a non Erwin or Cousteau can actually see if they visit, are very blessed and/or lucky and they put in a bit of effort.
Some of the insects depicted are only a few millimeters long in reality. In addition, rare and endangered species are included within the wildlife, bird and arthropod series.
Series on scenic vistas AKA landscapes will be coming out over the course of the next few months.
Best of all, all August Farrow titles are available to peruse for free with Kindle Unlimited,

August Farrow
Out of all of the personas at SeaMonkey Ink, I, Grea Alexander, am by far the most well-known and the most active on Goodreads...or online at all. So, when my peeps make a stride, I like to shout it out to the world.
August Farrow has finally figured out how to work with the new Amazon system and has finally gotten her 2020 and 2021 books up!
She has also created a quick index of her titles here: https://www.augustfarrow.seamonkeyink...
All of her books are on Kindle Unlimited so if you have KU, enjoy to your heart's content!
Fun fact: August often puts her favorite, most unique and/or rarest sighted wildlife photos as the end of each book. She considers it a reward/added treat for those that finish the book (though she sprinkles interesting little morsels throughout).
In 2020 & 2021 she has everything from birds, spiders, insects and snakes to bears, coyote and bobcat...almost all hidden at the end and no not just paw prints or scat either. She also has such things in prior books.
For 2020 she has wildlife photos from:
- Colorado
- Nebraska
- South Dakota
- Wyoming
- Texas
* Anahuac & Surrounding
* Baytown & Surrounding
* Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge
* Brazos Bend State Park
* Galveston & Surrounding
* Hermann Park - Houston
* High Island
* Houston (General)
* Humble
* Memorial Park - Houston
* San Antonio & Surrounding
* San Bernard National Wildlife Refuge - Brazoria
* Sheldon Lake State Park - Houston
* Peckinpaugh Preserve - Spring
* Kleb Woods - Tomball
Her 2021 books including photos from:
- Alaska
- California
- Hawaii (Big Island)
- Idaho
- Wyoming
- US General
- Texas
* Amarillo & Surrounding
* Anahuac & Surrounding
* Austin & Surrounding
* Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge
* Baytown & Surrounding
* Brazoria National Wildlife Refuge
* Brazos Bend State Park
* Galveston & Surrounding
* Hermann Park - Houston
* High Island
* Houston (General)
* Humble
* Memorial Park - Houston
* Russ Pitman Park - Bellaire
* San Antonio & Surrounding
* San Bernard National Wildlife Refuge - Brazoria
* Sheldon Lake State Park - Houston
* Peckinpaugh Preserve - Spring
* Kleb Woods - Tomball
* WD Jones National Forest - Conroe
She's also been able to venture to a few new states/wildlife preserves in 2022 and hopes to visit more - if funds and the state of things allow.
So far this year, she's visited locations in:
- Texas (of course)
- Louisiana
- Alabama
- Georgia
- Tennessee
- North Carolina
- South Carolina
- Mississippi
She'd love to venture out of the country again; however, with things being as they are with the rapid changes from one day to the next due to "the Covit" (yes, that's what I like to call it), she's putting that on hold...for now.
Enjoy!
