Starting today, for each day of #C2E2, three of my self-published stories will drop as ebooks on multiple online bookstores like #Kobo, #Smashwords, #BarnesandNoble, and others! From an apocalypse, to a folksy tale about a mysterious girl and her dog, to a cursed guy…you’re sure to find something you like! Only ninety-nine cents! Check my bio.

My #Kobo Clara has arrived! I celebrated by purchasing the ebook version of my favorite #StephenKing novel. Then I added my first self-published story from 2015—a personal take on an apocalypse, inspired by #TheStand (with monsters).

Starting this Friday, I’ll be offering my work on platforms other than Amazon for the first time. I’m still getting things ready, but 99-cent pre-orders for this story are already live on the link below for Kobo, #Smashwords, and #BarnesandNoble (among others). More stories to come!

BIG NEWS!

My best-selling Hebrew book series—Hebrew 1, 2, & 3—is now available at Barnes & Noble!

This means even more learners can get their hands on the ultimate step-by-step system to read, write, and speak Hebrew with confidence—no matter where they are!

If you’ve been looking for the perfect way to start (or continue!) your Hebrew journey, now you can grab my books at Barnes & Noble and take your learning to the next level.

Let’s make Hebrew more accessible than ever!

Tag a friend who’s learning Hebrew and spread the word!

Hanging out at the newly opened Barnes and Noble in Issaquah.

Bought a book and some Legos, considered buying a D&D book, and now hanging in the very large cafe area with a hot cup of coffee.

I'm hoping this turns out to be a great place to work for a few hours and can be my regular go-to when I'm in town.

Day 47 of #365in25. A trip to the bookstore to get a book. Seems to always be a safari to find a book with my daughter. LOL.

Looked at the #BarnesAndNoble site today, in both #Firefox and #Vivaldi. The formatting is mostly missing, and the top of the page says

⎡ Uh-oh, it looks like your Internet Explorer is out of date.
For a better shopping experience, please upgrade now. ⎦

Talk about being up to date.

It was a shorter week but still #TGIF
We will have a walk (or two, weather permitting) and a lot of rest for a full week starting next week.
I have bought way too many e-books on my new Nook (not Kindle ever), and I have to catch up, too.
Have a good weekend, everyone.

I still prefer small used bookstores to be perfectly honest. But I have seen some glimmers of goodness with these offering tabletop gaming and variety of hardcopy books to more rural places here in the U.S.

Only one person found my books this year on Amazon.

I am looking for somewhere different I can sell, or give my #Ebooks free.

As I make nothing, I have no money to pay for listings.

Also, being #DeafBlind, it cannot require capthuas to login. Which eliminates Draft2Digital, and they own SmashWords.

#AppleBooks cannot figure out why I can't login to my account.

I had no sales on #Kobo or #BarnesAndNoble when I had enough vision to use them.

#StreetLib never had any sales either.

Any ideas?

So exited to see my pen name's book now available in preorder #BarnesAndNoble has all three versions on the same page - Thanks https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/where-trade-winds-meet-lj-green/1146530918?ean=9781961386150

One of these things, not like the other.

Leonard Riggio, a brash, self-styled underdog who transformed the publishing industry by building Barnes & Noble into the country’s most powerful bookseller before his company was overtaken by the rise of Amazon.com, has died at age 83. ABC News reports:
