Hands up if you got any of the following for Christmas:
Kindle
Tablet
Smartphone
Amazon Gift Card?
Or do you already own any of the above?
I can see you all madly waving your arms in the air and I guess you’re all itching to download a bargain book. So, from now until Sunday 3rd January 2016, A Writer on Writing and House Guests are both only 99p each (or 99c if you’re in the US).
A Writer on Writing
A writer who earns money from his work is not merely a wordsmith. A profitable writer knows how to manage his time, produce ideas from a blank mind and create a web presence, plus many more things besides.
A Writer on Writing will introduce you to these and a range of other skills useful to anyone hoping to make cash from their words.
House Guests
A cornucopia of contemporary short stories about modern life. Enjoy a plethora of twist endings, some humour plus a tiny bit of romance. There’s also a special guest story by prize-winning author and writing tutor, Iain Pattison! So make yourself a coffee, grab a sweet treat, put your feet up and indulge.
Happy reading and very best wishes for a happy, healthy and successful 2016!

That’s a good idea, Sally. I’ve already got and read ‘Houseguests’ which is a great read, now I’m going to download the other one. Happy New Year and lots more writing achievements in 2016.

Hi Sally, thanks for this, I was thinking of getting an Amazon voucher with some of my Christmas money and these two look like worthy contenders for my first purchase!

Hi Sally,
I ‘ve got the Kindle software on my desktop computer. It’s fine for reading short stories, but not the ideal way to enjoy longer books, so I hinted that I would quite like a basic tablet for Christmas. Nothing fancy, just a device that would allow me to read ebooks on the sofa or in bed rather than sitting at my desk. Guess what? I got an iPad! And I’m slowly working my way through the user guide …
I’ve downloaded House Guests to my pc – thank you! – now all I’ve got to do is find out how to transfer it to the iPad. It’s good brain exercise!

Thanks for your support, Linda! How brilliant to get an ipad – unfortunately I don’t own any tablet so can’t help with transferring the book but I guess you’ll have to download the Kindle app to the iPad & hopefully the book will come with it somehow. Best wishes!
