Recently I said, in a comment left at Joe Konrath’s blog… The train just lurched forward. Are you on it? Or are you waiting to see what happens? Up until this point, I’ve seen myself as standing at the train platform and watching various trains go by… thinking, that one isn’t it. That’s [...]

I was happy to see that Amazon’s Jeff Bezos released not just the Amazon Fire Kindle, but three other gadgets – all with great prices. I was unhappy to see that only one of them is available in Thailand and most other countries – the lamest one. Such is the way life is lived in [...]

I never watched Donald Trump on his TV Show – and honestly, I am not sure “You’re Fired!” is even what it was called. I did however, ambush The Donald numerous times in NYC to grab his photo during my paparazzi days. Anyway, the Amazon “Fire” tablet computer running Android is just around the corner [...]

Apparently a LOT of people had that happen. J Konrath said he thinks it happened “across the board”. No, it didn’t – mine actually jumped considerably from last month – without having any new books in the pool to choose from. I am on track for about 29 books per day at the moment. That’s [...]

Amazon claims no further refinements to the Kindle 3 black and white WIFI/3G ereader device for 2011, but a color Kindle 4th edition is due, some say. E-ink is the black/white technology the current Kindle uses, and it’s like magic. Magic for black and white, anyway. The company had color prototypes of it’s E-ink technology [...]

It was slight – but, we did go over January’s sales – on a per day basis – which is a great thing considering Apple is screwing up all of our sales with the Kindle. If Apple had their shit straight – who’s telling what would happen to sales. Not just for me – for [...]

I read a guest post by Blake Crouch on Joe Konrath’s blog today. It was to plug Blake’s book, RUN. Hmm, where have I heard that title before? Turns out it was in my Kindle Reader – a great book by Michaelbrent Collings that is a HIGH bestseller in the Amazon Kindle Store. I read [...]

This has been eating at me for a while. Looking at Joe Konrath’s photo every time I visit his blog – was irking me for some reason and I couldn’t figure it out – until now. Some of you might say, it was just eating at me because the guy is making 28 times what [...]
