    BooksForABuck.com Newsletter--April, 2007

    New Books

    Coming in April

    In the second half of the month, look for our first book by Michael Kechula. A FULL DECK OF ZOMBIES is a collection of Kechula's short science fiction/fantasy stories--all with weird and darkly funny twists. This novel-length collection will be available for only $1 during its first month of availability only, so check back often to buy it at this great price.

    Other publishing news

    Thanks to all of you who participated in our Read an eBook Week events and contests. We had more winners than I could count--giving away free eBooks to lots of loyal readers.

    I'm proud to announce that I'm now a columnist for the Teleread.org Blog. I had two columns last month and anticipate at least two more this month. I'll mention it in my blog, but if you're interested in eBooks, you'll want to check out Teleread. Always an interesting debate going on over there.

    We've got a Videos page. Check it out to see the trailers and videos done for some of our books. Michael Paulson, Anthony Perham and I have all created video trailers for some (or all) of our books.
