Something for Nothing



Big announcement: The Mountain and The City just became a free e-book in Amazon's Kindle Store. Either sometime late last night or early this morning, Amazon dropped the price to zero in order to match how it was being offered through Smashwords and the affiliates they distribute to. I'm not sure when it actually happened, but the book has already hit #403 in Amazon's overall rankings, as well as #19 in the Horror genre and #7 in Short Stories, and is being downloaded more as I watch.

This has really made my morning, and I thank everyone for the support you've given me as well as the new people who are just checking out my stuff. I'm actually writing Part II of The Mountain and The City as we speak (to be fair, I'm writing a blog post about it, but I believe we all accept the parameters of this phrase) and I'm even more excited to finish that and put it out there now that this happened.

**EDIT**

Twenty-four hours later, the story has been downloaded over twelve-hundred times and is sitting at #130 in the rankings. I've wanted to crack Amazon's top 100 for a while and this is the closest I've come by a mile or so.

Congratulations. I'm one of the 1200++ people who have downloaded your ebooks recently. I've only read A Good Clean, A Harsh Clean so far and I was impressed enough to check your other work. Here's hoping you'll be my new favorite writer :)

A yearlong pass good for both parks can be purchased for $74.50 between Nov. 25 and Nov. 27. As a self employed individual, when I travel for business, I almost always travel alone, and usually wind up making my own reservations. Over the years, because of a few other unpleasant experiences, I've developed some rules I usually follow (but ignored on that trip!) to minimize danger. The first is that peace of mind and safety are far more important than cost.
