Here are some things you can do to help me in my struggle for fame and fortune! Many have asked me how they can help, so here goes. All of these things are FREE and take little time. They can also be done fairly anonymously, so don't worry about giving away any personal information:

Post
your good reviews on my Amazon and Barnes & Noble web site pages.
Click on the links to go to my books' pages, then follow the directions
to Post a Review. You can do this with or without giving your real name.
These help me sell books to bookstores, libraries etc. because they give
some legitimacy to my work.

Email
your friends and tell them about my books. You can give
them my web site address to make it easier for them to check out the work.

Email
Oprah Winfrey about Elephants. I know this sounds hokey, but an
endorsement from her is worth, literally, hundreds of thousands of dollars
to any writer. Go to the link at right, and suggest the book to her staff.
She's a voracious reader and enough cudos from my "fans" may
intice her to read Elephants. She's a great supporter of new and
struggling writers like me. Feel free to give her my email address or
web site to check out for herself.

Ask
your local library to carry the books. Some authors do
not want libraries to buy their books, because they think it hurts overall
sales if people can read them for free. Not true. People who read them
often want to buy their own copy or copies! The link at right (coming
soon!) will take you to a printable page that has the details libraries
need when ordering a book. They probably have their own special form to
use for requests..
