You can still have fire without a Kindle

I was just having a conversation with someone, and a topic came up that I thought I'd share.  For those of you who don't have a Kindle, but still want to read Presenting, or any of the other great books that are only available in that format, there is an answer.  Amazon makes several apps available for free to allow readers to download and read books on smart phones, computers or tablets.  Here is the link:  http://www.amazon.ca/gp/feature.html/ref=sa_menu_kcp_ipad_mkt_lnd?ie=UTF8&docId=1000817631

Enjoy!

Goodreads

I joined Goodreads today.  Though I haven't been able to add Presenting to the site yet, I'm hoping to soon.  In any case, I've gone ahead and listed about 50 books that I've read and loved over the years.  Actually it was alot of fun to remember all those stories, but now I've reminded myself of all the books I want to read again, plus there is a pile of books that I've bought which I'm still trying to make time to get to.  Yikes!  Here is the link to my Goodreads page. http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/17550429-diana-petkovic

New Cover for Presenting

I'm so excited.  The new cover for Presenting is ready as of today.  I think it's great, and definately miles better than the one I did on my own.  The artist who did the cover is Ronnell D Porter.  Here it is ...




And just for the sake of trivia, here is the cover the book was first published with.



Um, yeah, think I'll stick to letting the professionals do the covers from now on :)

Book 2 and Cover Update

Over the last couple of weeks, my polish of book 2 has slowed down a bit while I was seeing to the publishing of Presenting.  I'm back on track now, and it's coming along well.  In fact, I think fans of Will are going to like the scene I added last night.  It's funny because I find that most of the time, while I'm polishing, I end up taking stuff out.  This last chapter that I was working on just needed something extra though, and I think what I've added is what the character Will needed.

I'm also hoping to have a new cover for Presenting soon.  While I like the first one, and think it represents the story well, I think it could be better.  So I've contacted a cover artist and asked him to make something up for me.  I'm really excited to see what he does.
