Hot Off The Press!

I'm happy to announce that Woody's book Prayers from God is now available in e-book form. This has been long in the writing/publishing and has been at the publishers since the first of the year.  I have been anxious to share with our blog readers about Woody's book, but I had to be patient while the last touches were completed.  The process that took the longest was Woody getting permission from various authors that he had quoted in his book.  Finally last month he received the last permission.  And, last week he got a copy of the paperback book to proof.  All changes have been made as he requested, except in this proof reading he found a printing error...that hopefully has been taken care of and Woody will be receiving a corrected copy shortly.  At the moment the e-book version is the only one that we know is correct.  Woody says to buy the e-version anyway...as it was the only one that he had any say about the price...and he has set the e-price at 99 cents.  He has been disappointed with the publisher's pricing of the paperback from the first time he heard their quote of $24.95.  He just wants it out there so it will be read and he figures at 99 cents that folk might down-load an e-copy!  We know that there are presently three places where the e-book is available.  I just purchased it from Christian Book Distributors (cbd.com) for 79 cents...even more of a bargain!  This is the first time that I have bought an e-book from CBD and I had to download a free app for their e-reader for my iPad.  I am used to the Kindle app and this is a bit different...but definitely readable. You can also purchase it as an e-book for 99 cents from Amazon for those who use a Kindle and for 99 cents from Westbow Press (not sure what form Westbow's e-copies download).  At this point Barnes and Noble hasn't made the price change for the e-book...so wait a bit if you want it for your Nook. And, for those who feel the need of having an actual book in your hand, please wait till we are sure that the latest changes have been made before ordering.  We'll let you know when the paperback book is available.

Needless to say that this has been a very exciting day for us.  But we have done ordinary things too...we had school according to the Wednesday schedule...well, almost...Abigail did have an orthodontist appointment so she came a bit later than usual.  Graham had his science time with Goosey (Woody) and Esther had her sewing time with me.  After lunch, I headed off to the church to work in the library for a couple of hours and Woody headed off to do our Wednesday Krogering.  Since I got home, Woody and I have been checking various sites to see if the corrected e-copy of his book was available.   And, with that new found information and the e-book on my iPad I was able to come in to blog and say that it is available in corrected form at bargain prices!
