My New Book Is Here!

This is my best Show and Tell of the year so far. Book 3 of my Circle C Adventures series has been released a month early. Yippee! I'm very excited to share a preview (AKA Book Trailer) of Andrea Carter and the Family Secret with you. It's about one minute long. Then, please read on for ways you can help me get the word out about the book. In today's "book-glutted" market, it's hard for little authors like me to make a splash without tirelessly working to promote the books. The Circle C Adventures seem to be a hit with young and old alike, but the only way to get these books into the hands of readers is by readers
spreading the word.
 

If you'd like to read the first chapter, go here: CHAPTER 1.
To order Family Secret, you can go to CBD or AMAZON or your local Christian bookstore.

Here are a few ideas to help spread the word:
1) Link back to this entry (do a "permanent link" option) from your blog so it goes to the right entry.
2) If you are willing to post the book trailer on your sidebar, that would be so cool! If you need the "small version" of the code, just leave me a comment and I'll get it to you in a PM or e-mail. Otherwise just grab it and do it yourself.
3) If you would like to give away bookmarks and/or postcards to your friends, e-mail me your mailing address and I'd be happy to send you handfuls. They do no good sitting in my closet! You all have homeschool co-ops, right? And I pay the shipping.
4) Ask your library to order Family Secret (and the other books, too!)

Thank you so much for any help you can give. I just sent manuscript 4, Andrea Carter and the San Francisco Smugglers, to my editor. Good sales from Family Secret will help raise the odds of continuing Andi adventures.
