Please do me a Favor
I know this isn't really a football-related post, but I was hoping Chiefsplanet could flex its muscles on my behalf.
Today and tomorrow (11/16-11/17) I'm running a free promotion for my Epic Fantasy novel (The Supreme Warrior) on Amazon.com. For two days, its free to download. If people here would be willing to take the time to get this free download, even if you aren't interested in the epic fantasy genre, it could push me up Amazon bestseller lists which will help me reach my intended audience. Here is the link: http://t.co/ov2e5yob Thanks to everyone. John Viril |

Yes I did. Writing that thing was surprisingly hard, and I'm not sure I like it yet. If you have any suggestions or improvements, I'd love to hear about them. Writing a novel and writing what is essentially marketing ad copy are two different things.

There will be one eventually. To get Amazon to do a free promotion it has to be exclusive to Amazon for 90 days. (I will get another 3 day free promotion later).
I have also designed a paperback version which will be priced at 9.99 and will be available from Amazon soon, but I'm finalizing the layout. After the 90 day exclusive period, I'll put it up on smashwords, which will create versions available on virtually any ebook platform (including the apple store). However, you don't need an actual kindle to read a kindle book. You can download a "Kindle reader" that will work on pretty much any device (computer, smartphone or tablet). My sister reads Kindle novels on her iPad. One of the biggest misconceptions I've run into while talking to people about my book is that you need a Kindle device to read a Kindle book. |

I know, I've become a crotchety old man. Bump the thread when you upload an epub version and I'll grab a copy!

I'd rather purchase a copy of the book than support the Kindle format, which I would be doing in attempting to show support for the author by downloading a Kindle version. Same concept as wanting Hunt to see empty seats, I won't give Amazon a click on a format I think is wrong. This in a genre that I read and sounds interesting, so I will support a CP author by purchasing a copy when available in either an open standard or dead tree version. Not trying to make a "statement" or anything. Just how I feel.

Got it. Not usually a sci-fi reader but I will give it a whirl.
