2010
♦ March 14 Removing Amazon Links  When all was said and done, at the end of the day we decided to remove all active Amazon links until all the problems with the retailer could be resolved. The books and Kindle ebooks are still there, but we will no longer host the buttons. If you are a shopper who prefers to use Amazon, good luck to you, but you can get the books for less here. Also, our ebooks are in full color where applicable. We offer a PDF of a book FREE with every purchase of the print version, delivered direct into your inbox. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause Amazon users.
     Written In BLOOD has been pushed back yet again, owing to the complexity of the text and our addition of a series of b&w illustrations and maps. This will take time but we guarantee the end result will be worth the wait.

♦ March 7 Our Ebook Sale  In partnership with our ebook publisher Smashwords we are offering all our epub and other compatible formats for download at 25% off the list price. See our product pages for details. This sale is running from March 7 to 13, so be sure to act now!
♦ Tim Burton to Produce Vampire Mashup Film

♦ March 1 Brand NEW Changes In an effort to bring the best value to our customers we have introduced a new page called Book Bundles, where you can purchase whole packages of our books and PDF ebooks at reduced prices and shipping charges. We have divided them by the type and series. We also offer 1 each of the whole library for sale in a bundle at a reduced price and shipping. We have also introduced a Mail Order Form which you can fill out and email or snailmail your order direct to us. Either way, you can now take advantage of even more savings and you can send us a bank check or money order instead of going through PayPal if you prefer. Though we strongly urge you to use PayPal, we recognize that you might not want your information to be posted on the internet, or don't want to open an account. That is perfectly alright with us. All you have to do is follow the directions on the form and we will take care of the rest.

♦ February 25 A Few Site Changes  We have decided to streamline the site and feature only books and jewelry, to make it more navigable and because we are working on making more books available for the future. Check out our new Used Books page for some interesting items from Theresa's personal library for sale at bargain prices. "I am getting rid of some of my vast collection of science fiction and nonfiction books to make room for new purchases. Some of them have not been read or read rarely, so they are in good condition," she said. We may expand on this as some books come to us as abandoned by those who don't keep their books as a rule, and they are often in the genres we sponsor.
     ♦ We have taken down the Auction Page due to lack of bids on our first auction, which concluded on Feb. 23. The book has been moved to the USED BOOKS page as a result. We hope this will make your shopping experience more agreeable.

♦ February 22 NPR Covers Vampires! An "All Things Considered" Reporter posts a story about the list of 75 vampire books she is reading:For Love Of Vampires:A Bloody Book List.
     ♦ The publication of Written In BLOOD has been pushed back to March 5.
     ♦ Smashwords is supporting "Read An Ebook Week", with special prices. The event begins March 7 and ends at midnight March 13. We are offering our ebooks at 25% off only on their site during that time. To buy click on the link on any book product page where we have placed a dollar ($) sign. Hosted by EbookWeek.com

♦ February 2, 2010 We Are In The Auction Biz! Since our CEO Theresa has so many books she no longer looks at, and some recent acquisitions rescued from various places, we have set up an auction page for such sales. Please have a look. Our first item came to us today, and will be auctioned off over the next 14 days.

♦ January 29 Some Changes  Owing to a lack of interest in the fan art we had for sale we have discontinued our gallery and moved it. We have also changed and lowered the prices for our jewelry line effective today. Please take a look and you might find a nice gift for a loved one for Valentine's day for a price that won't break the bank.

♦ January 29 The Ten Percent Solution Coming to Amazon  In the wake of the settlement between Booklocker.com and Amazon, we have just obtained an ISBN for the book and it should be listed on Amazon.com soon. We will publish a link to the book page as soon as we have it.
     Meanwhile, we have just added links to our Smashwords listings for the greater convenience of our customers. Now you will be able to purchase and download our ebooks to your Sony eReader, iPhone, BlackBerry or Palm Pilot in addition to our PDF and Kindle offerings. Just look at the book page for each title of your interest. We regret that our illustrated books will not be offered through Smashwords, but look to our listings with Lulu, which has the full capability to store and download the full sized ebooks into your reader.

♦ January 20 Written In BLOOD Publication Moved to February  Even with the holiday season we had to move it back owing to the scope and size of the book and its plotline. Author Theresa M. Moore is working as hard as she can to finish it, but it does entail some serious research and organization, and she is creating illustrations for the new video to accompany it. We hope to have the print book published and released by the end of February, with a simultaneous release of the digital ebook.
     The 2nd edition of PRINCIPLES OF SELF-PUBLISHING, including new material on digital publishing, is the next book and to follow Written In BlOOD, and may be ready to release sometime in the spring.
      In the meantime, some of the other books planned for the season have also been rescheduled. We will announce their debuts as soon as they are ready to be released. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

♦ January 19 Antellus Departs DriveThruSciFi We tried for six months to sell our ebooks through them but it looks like their heart wasn't into it. We were patient, but it took too long. The majority of ebooks being sold by DTSF were of the gaming variety, and since we were aiming for fiction readers it did not take long for us to discover that their hype did not live up to the end result. So we bid them farewell and good luck in their endeavors, but if you want to read our ebooks we have them for sale right here in three different formats. Just visit our product pages.

♦ January 11 New videos!  Check out our YouTube channel to see them all, or visit our product pages.
     Why we no longer advertise on Craigslist. It is obvious that someone let the dogs out, and this unprofessional behavior on the moderators' part leads us to question their effectiveness as an advertising site in the first place. Last year, we had our book ads flagged and removed for no reason. We feel now that we were justified in our decision to drop them from our promotion program. If you are a book reader wanting to find our books on other sites, please be advised that we do pick and choose our advertisers and affiliates carefully. One of our criteria for advertising or placing ads with them is their professionalism. TROLLS

♦ January 8 Writers' Groups Take Aim At Google

♦ January 1, 2010 Welcoming The New Year
We are ready to greet the new developments in publishing and we are continuing in our new program. You may notice that most of the ad patches are gone, and we hope to make our site more navigable.

We are also exploring options to make our books available for iPod and iPhone through some new hosting sites. Watch our news updates.
