Re: Off Topic Ebook Reply #2 – March 23, 2012, 04:06:18 pm Yahoo Message Number: 129336Thanks to Jim and Andrea for (individually) sharing the news that my novel, Rubies of the Viper, is FREE today and tomorrow on Amazon. I wasn't going to do a shameless self-promotion here, but since they did if for me I just want to say how much I appreciate that. And Andy (who also gets my personal quarterly newsletter) replied privately to me with this additional info, which I also appreciate and will share with others here:*** I want to point out something you left out with regard to "Rubies": even if you don't own a Kindle, you can read the book using Amazon's Kindle software for Mac, iPhone/iPod/iPad, or Windows... or on any computer, phone or tablet that has a web browser, using their Kindle Cloud Reader. You may want to send out an addendum mentioning this, so that people understand that you *don't* have to own a Kindle to enjoy the book.

Your moral support through this tough time has been wonderful!Martha in Santa Fe 2009 MB, which will soon be on the road again!

Re: Off Topic Ebook Reply #4 – March 23, 2012, 04:58:57 pm Yahoo Message Number: 129341I use my Kindle for Android when I get caught in a very slow line in a store or at the pharmacy desk. It is handy when I am without my kindle or other reading material. Works great!Denise

I remember you from last year's BF and am impressed you recall from our conversation that there was a sequel to "Rubies of the Viper" in the works. Actually, yes, there is a sequel with the draft title of "The Viper Amulet," which was coming along nicely until my husband got sick in mid October, at which point it screeched to a halt. As he's gotten better over the last couple of months, I've tried to crank my brain back into gear and get back into the groove of writing. It actually started this week and with luck will continue uninterrupted to a happy fictional conclusion.Thanks for asking!Martha in Santa Fe[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
