Saturday Sound Off (3-13)
Is it Saturday already? I guess it is actually almost Sunday. Time has ben flying by lately! My reading time was cut to almost non existent lately as my Psychology class was wrapping up, thankfully that is over! Now I just have to face English 102 instead…. oh joy! The lack of reading lately has put me into a funk and I am not sure what to read next… I need something exciting – something that I can’t put down!

All things Kindlicious
Amazon announced its Free Book Collections “store” – making it easy for you to find free reads.
With over 450,000 titles, the Kindle Store contains the largest selection of the books people want to read including New York Times® Best Sellers and most new releases at $9.99, unless otherwise marked. And Amazon provides thousands of the most popular classics for free including titles like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Pride and Prejudice, and Treasure Island with more coming.
But of course, the Internet is huge and there are lots of older, out-of-copyright, pre-1923 books online. We wanted to make it easier to find these collections, which today represent nearly 2 million titles. See the sites and instructions below to download free classic and other out-of-copyright, pre-1923 books and transfer via USB to your Kindle device or read on Kindle for PC.
Note that these large collections of older free books are typically created from scanned copies of physical books and can have variable quality.
Around the Blog World
Author Joe Konrath has a really fabulous post on ebooks and writers up on his blog.
I get to talk about Danielle at Alpha Reader twice this Saturday! she has been rocking my blog world lately, posting really great content…. totally making me jealous! My poor blog, it feels neglected. Anyway, curious about which of your favorite Urban Fantasy books were/are being made into movies and more? Then check out her post here. Wondering what an author is up to lately? Check out her post here. Can I just say how excited I am that Karen Chance’s Pritkin is getting his own story?!?! No I can’t say because I am too excited for words.
Evil Author extraordinaire Moira Rogers posted some snippets from their “Works In Progress” – including Deadlock. *thud* …. that was my head hitting the desk. How long til January 2011 again?? If you like math and numbers and charts (and really, if you don’t I have to wonder about you)… then check out Bree’s post on 3rd party royalties. Its interesting to say the least.
Jackie at Literary Escapism is getting ready to host another group author challenge and needs your help! Go here for more info and to add your opinion!

Maggie is pretty awesome and The Beast:) My daughter’s ten now and outgrew the show. So sad. I CANNOT wait until Pritkin’s story. That is going to be so cool.
