YA Indie Carnival!



Welcome to The Shootin' Gallery and the fourteenth post in the YA Indie Carnival. The carnival is designed for authors, readers and reviewers of YA Indie books. Each Friday this team of YA Indies will post on a common theme.

This week’s post theme is to share our best fan experience. Sadly, as I am still fairly new to the indie writing arena I don't really have any fans, at least that I know of. Sooooo, if you are a fan I invite you proclaim you obsession with The Soul Quest Trilogy here today.



I have received some terrific reviews from my readers and I always post them on my website but I have yet to receive any personal emails. I also receive numerous and supportive shout outs and flattery on twitter (mostly from bloggers and fellow indie writers) which I truly appreciate but it would warm my heart to hear from my fans in a more personal way. So, if you're out there, I invite you to join The Soul Quest Trilogy Fan Club. It's free to join (tee hee) and everyone will think you're super cool!

Before you head off to the next booth in the carnival please don't forget about...

Soulless is a novella and will be available for free download @ Amazon.com on October 31, 2011!

The Guardians of Souls, Book Two in The Soul Quest Trilogy. It is available on Amazon NOW!
