Hey, FOLCs! Just wanted to share... for the last two years I've been working on a book, like, an original novel that is not fanfic. You know, so that I could sell it, and get some money for my writing (FDK is addictive but does not pay the bills), and also because I love this story... um, anyway. I decided to self-publish. Found a cover artist who did a *gorgeous* cover for me, and now the thing's available on Amazon as a Kindle book for pre-order! I'm going to have paperbacks, too, but haven't gotten that far yet. So, I had to brag a little, and also, I'm looking for a few people who'd be willing to read a free advance copy & post a review on May 4th when the book releases. Books without reviews don't get sales, which makes it hard to get reviews, so... Whispers in the Dark is a paranormal romance, featuring a strong female lead who falls for a guy who secretly has a superpower, so I figured you guys might be interested I have a website - www.pamjernigan.com/whispers - with a link to purchase on Amazon. Only 99 cents for the moment. Let's see if it will let me post a picture of the cover...

"You told me you weren't like other men," she said, shaking her head at him when the storm of laughter had passed. He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement." "You can say that again," she told him. "I have a...." "Oh, shut up."

Sweet! I'm totally buying it. You are welcome to send me an ecopy, but I'm pretty bad at reviewing, so I'm not sure it would be helpful. And even if you do, I'll still buy it...I love your writing!

Hi Pam! I'm late, but I wanted to know if your royalty is better when someone purchases the printed version of your book or the Kindle version?
Thanks and congratulations! It looks intriguing. I don't think I've ever really read anything like it.

I read your book! It was really good. I'm not in to zombies and stuff so I was hesitant at first, but it's Pam Jernigan through and through, a great story, very WAFFY and fun. What an interesting twist on "zombies"! Thanks for letting us know about it
