Hi, I’m Bronwyn Heeley, waiting anxiously for my
book to be released, and while I did this, I changed a few things. The url of
my blog. Cleaning it up, which basically cut most of my labels. I’ve also
gotten myself into the social network (twitter, facebook, tumblr) which isn’t easy
for me, since I don’t particularly think I have anything interesting to say.
Not the point and strangely it is.
I’ve decided that I’m going to stop WoW, it’s
actually the one that takes the most time, and gets me worked up too much at
the beginning of the week. You’d think it would be easy, but it’s annoying, and
it’s time consuming, and let’s face it, it’s an excuse that I feel I have to do for some reason.
So, before I decided that I’ll abandon everything
that is what my blog is, and focus on my own words and thoughts for your
enjoyment I’m going to promote a few of the authors I like to read.
But first, I’m going to start with eXtasybooks. ‘Cause
it’s always polite to promote that in which feeds you.
Welcome to eXtasybooks! Is the greeting, followed by the usual bragging (?) that you will find at the bottom of your page when you head onto their site.
SITE!
I actually really like shopping at eXtasy, mostly ‘cause
it is what they say, simple to use and navigate. And I really appreciate that
over the search bar is an author select drop down that has all the authors in alphabetical
order (first name) since I’m shit at spelling regular words I’m hopeless when
it comes to names (I mostly just don’t bother).
Before we get on with the books, I’d like to add,
that eXtasybooks holds a Deal of the Day book when they take off, like, 70% (or
more) off the book up for the day. I wrote this a few days before it’s being
posted so I can’t tell you what that book is today.
Anyway, they have a verity of books on offer from a
number of genres, as we are about to see, which are all, roughly around $2.99
to $5.99 depending—my guess—on how many pages the book has along with how
popular the author is, and most likely how long it’s been sitting there.
I’m not sure because I couldn’t be bothered going through
the whole site, book by book to check it out. But I’ve not seen a book higher than
$6.
They aren’t specific in their selection, you will
find books here that range from m/f, m/m, f/f to threesomes, all males, males
outnumber female, and maybe vice versa, again I haven’t seen but why wouldn’t
they?!
Now, as a small tour of some of the genres and what
they have to offer
Action
Adult Fairy
Tales
Adventure
BDSM
Contemporary
Dark Fantasy
Futuristic
And so many more, I’m starting to see to many of the
same books, in the first page of each line. I’m not sure if it changes as they
go through, but it’s not really the point of this posting, is it? it’s about
what the site is about, and in all honesty all I’m seeing when I flick from
genre to genre is the same things, every time—though I did miss a few I
thoughts were and like you can see I got lazy and stoped around the g’s
--oh, I just saw that there is a drop thing that lets
you chose what type of book comes up first in your search, so what I have been
looking at was on default setting. But you have to change it with each genre
you click onto. Which is kinda annoying.
Anyway, like I’ve said above, the site is easy to
navigate with the new realises, the ones that just came and some old favourite are
on their front page.
The listing the covers are easily seen, the main
information easy to read, and the buy links easily assessable, along with
pricing.
Once clicked on the book you like, all the
information that the publishing company puts out on their books is there, along
with a big description, excerpts, and reviews.
Okay, so that’s that, I hope it promoted it, if not,
I’m not really sure what to say….
anyway, I recommend you check it out, a lot of my favourite series come from them, and I'm about to, so... check them out, like, right, now!
Next up, I’m thinking about promoting (or spotlighting)
authors—from everywhere, I think, that I like to read, mostly, ‘cause it’s
easier to start off that way.
I’m going to find them, I guess you can say. talk
about the types of books they write, what there site is like, and all that
shit.
Hope to see you next week
