Saturday, July 16th, I will be presenting at the Fort Bragg Public Library.

I’ll be talking about Chinese mythology (one of my favorite subjects) and sharing some tips on how to become an author. I’m also going out on a limb and having the presentation recorded with the hopes of turning it into a promotional trailer for You Tube and QR Codes. Hopefully I’ll “break a leg!”

Raggedy Chan e-book is now live on Amazon! You can check it out here. Still not up at Barnes and Noble, but it can take up to 72 hours. Of course I will be checking regularly.

As a promotion, I am giving away 25 copies of the Raggedy Chan e-book. If you’d like a copy, drop me a note at camillepicott at gmail dot com. Let me know if you want epub or mobi file.

In return, I hope you’ll consider posting a review at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Reviews are proven to help sell books, and I am not above asking for help! If you already have a copy of the book, please consider posting a review. Help me get Raggedy Chan out there into the hands of other readers!

Thanks!
