Mere days before I flit off to LA to live a week like I’m something special, I realize I am special. I’m in a book on Kindle! Yeah, yeah, lots of people are, even people who aren’t in a real book…stop trying to burst my bubble. I’m on the biggest electronic reader in the world.
For the bargain price of five bucks ($5.00), you can read “Leech Run” and all the other stories in Zero Gravity. Big savings over the paperback price of $15.29. There’s something spacial about having a story in tangible print on paper that I can keep on a shelf and point to. There’s also something special about having my story distributed through cutting edge technology.
I suspect I may end up on the Kindle again when Writers of the Future XXV! comes out. Ooh, I just checked and found something cooler!!
How pretty is that? It’s available for pre-order through Amazon. People are pre-ordering me! *giggles like maniacal school child* They aren’t advertising it for Kindle yet, but I bet it will happen after the first surge of paperbacks sell…but wait. Previous years’ anthologies aren’t available on Kindle. Huh. I’ll ask about it next week to see why. But a print book is still great. They did an audio book of volume 24 that was excellent; I’d love to see that happen this year.
I guess I should go to sleep now. I have that real job thing in the morning.
For those interested, I’ll try to throw up a note here every day or so while I’m in LA. Nothing long winded until I get back. Now go buy me on Amazon!
