There's a fascinating story and interview by Smashwords CEO Mark Coker in today's Huffington Post on Rita Toews, founder of Read an Ebook Week. http://tinyurl.com/yz2nz4r.
BeWrite Books has always supported the event, but this year ... well, what a heck of a week for the BeWrite.net website to be down for reconstruction!
Thankfully, Smashwords.com -- one of our leading ebook outlets -- has allowed us to get around this by using our publisher's page there to offer, this year, 'BeWrite Books for Haiti'.
From March 7-13 just visit our Smashwords profile and scroll down through our catalogue for twenty-five Pay-What-You-Want titles. All income will go to the Red Cross effort on the earthquake-devastated island.
Cheers. Neil

Was it wrong that my first thought was "kinda foxy for 61"?
ReplyDeleteMark Coker has been putting himself about a bit this week. He had a piece on Writer Beware as well.
Both good reads.
Mark's a writer himself, Anton, but doesn't have time for novels since he started Smashwords. I guess his stuff for Huffington Post, his own blogs, etc, etc, is a way to keep his hand in ... and, of course, he's an enthusiastic promoter to boot. He did a half-hour radio interview with BeWrite Books' Maggie Ball as well this week. Cheers. Neil
