One Stop Shopping

Debra is thrilled with the new 'buy' buttons on her publisher's web-site.

In today's fast paced world, time savers and convenience features are huge. The Wild Rose Press is implementing what I think is a brilliant addition to their catalog.

In the past, readers could browse the TWRP catalog looking for specific authors and titles and could then buy the book through the Press either in digital format or in paperback if it was available. However, if a reader wanted a Kindle or a Nook version, they'd need to hop on over to either the Amazon or Barnes and Nobel site.

No longer. Starting with their new titles and then working backwards until the entire catalog is updated, TWRP is including the Amazon and B & N buy buttons with the proper links on all of their titles. Like I said, I think this is a brilliant maneuver. Because sometimes taking that extra step of needing to log into a completely new site to order a book might cause someone to say 'forget it'. And that could cost sales.

It's all about getting our books into the hands of readers. And anything that can help in that, is all right in my book!

Until next time,

Happy Reading!

Me and my Kindle

This is the most recent photo of me - taken last Christmas at Downtown Disney (in Florida) which is the shopping, eating and entertainment area. We went there one evening and I'd had enough of all the shops and was waiting for my daughter and her partner to finish all their shopping. So, of course, I spent the time reading my Kindle, which I took everywhere with me.

And, in case you want to know, I was reading Celia Yeary's 'A Christmas Wedding' which was quite appropriate for the season!
