#IReadIrene Weekend

Sneaking back from my hiatus to share with all lovers of story that a number of authors have banded together for a special online promotion this weekend.

First, my thoughts are with everyone along the East Coast who is facing Hurricane Irene.  It’s hitting the Outer Banks of North Carolina as I write this.  In fact, it’s hitting the Cape Lookout National Seashore, a place I know well because I volunteered out there for a summer (many years ago!).  I hope everyone from the Carolinas up the coast stays safe and suffers no lasting impacts from this storm.

But, it’s likely that many people in the storm’s path will lose power.  This means no television.  No WiFi.  Many may turn to their e-Readers, tablets, smart phones and other G3-powered devices to stay in touch.  And those with backlit reading devices may want a good book to help while away the hours when you’re stuck inside.

#IReadIrene features authors who have posted their digital books on Amazon and Barnes & Noble* at a 99¢ price for this weekend.  It’s a great opportunity to discover a new author and load up your Kindle or Nook with great stories in all different genres.  You can visit the event’s Facebook page, follow and comment via our hashtag on Twitter, and I’m even including the current list of authors and titles here.  The Facebook page shows all the covers and includes buy links where you can read full descriptions of the books.  Note:  These books range from middle grade books for the kids to erotic romance and graphic paranormal and suspense books.  Check out the Facebook page for a quick reference to covers and short descriptions that won’t make you blush!

*Note:  Our apologies to other e-tailers and indie bookstore websites that also carry our books.  We’d love to mention all sites where our books are located.  Amazon and Barnes & Noble were the sites that gave us the agility to quickly discount our prices for this weekend.  Please check that authors’ websites to find other places where you can purchase all their books.  Our decision to feature links in this post is not an endorsement for any e-tailer site.  Also, none of the links in this post are “embedded” with affiliate information.  I will not profit in any way from anyone clicking on any of these links.
