Just for today, Poetic Justice is a free download on Amazon (you don't need a Kindle). Please go ahead and download and if you enjoy the book, leave a review! (And "like" the book for me?)
Let's see if putting a book up for free actually helps sales at all. An experiment! http://www.amazon.com/Justice-Regency-Romance-Escapades-ebook/dp/B006QNRIEQ
I'll report back on the success or failure therein.
Anonymous, you can down load the kindle PC for free (or whatever device you're using), and "buy" it from there, then it will go directly to your kindle book shelf. Thanks, Alicia! I agree with PatriciaW, it's nice to read work from instructors you respect. I'll read it and post my comments soon.
I got one yesterday--it popped up somewhere in my Amazon page and I grabbed it (virtually). Thanks! I look forward to reading it. I'm new to this blog but am finding it very helpful...so thanks for that too. :)
If you have an editing question you'd like us to address, feel free to post it in the comments or send it to edittorrent at gmail dot com. We like reader questions because they save us from having to think up post topics on our own. ;)
We're two editors who agree except when we disagree. Between us, we have edited novels, novellas, non-fiction, short stories, computer manuals, legal briefs, advertising copy, educational text, newspaper articles-- everything. Now we work as acquisition editors for a publisher of fiction of various lengths.

Our Promise to Authors
Every day we work with writers to shape their manuscripts for publication. We also evaluate submissions, read our friends’ pages, give second opinions to other editors -- in short, we confront a whole lot of manuscript pages for a whole lot of reasons. But here’s what we don’t do. We don’t -- and we never will -- pull examples directly from any of these manuscripts. The editor-author relationship depends on mutual trust and respect, and we won’t ever compromise that. We might get ideas for blog posts in the course of our interaction with writers and manuscripts, but all examples are ours, with the occasional exception of literary sources.
I Is an Other, by James Geary. This is an exploration of metaphor in life and art. Just getting started.
A Game of Thrones, by George R R Martin. I'm embarking on this mammoth reading project. I like it so far (first book), but I haven't really gotten emotionally involved yet. Not sure why.
The Satanic Verses, by Salman Rushdie The book group has finally finished Ulysses, so we're getting a bit more modern.

Thanks, Alicia. Grabbed a copy. I like to read the books of the writing instructors I follow to see how they implement their own advice.
The only option is to download to Kindle Cloud reader. What if I don't have that?

Thanks! Grabbed a copy. I have a friend who loves Regency, so I made sure she snagged one.
And Anon, Gaylene is right. Just download the Kindle for PC. That's what I use.

Hi Alicia,
I didn't know you had this book out, so this freebie experiment is working to get the word out. :) I picked it up.
