E-Book... Free sample anyone?

[simon the viking]

I've just finished writing my second e-book this time its a short Novella (9000 words) I am currently proof reading it and editing it. It is going to be launched on Amazon on 8th July (pre order hopefully from 1st July) at a bargain 99p (I think might go 1.99 but not sure)

Here's a link to the website.....

Would anyone like to read the first TWO (sort of half proof read) chapters?

The genre is..... Humorous Sci-fi/steampunk/cricket......
WARNING: It does not contain any cycling.......

P.M if interested and I will email you a PDF of the first two chapters.

I'm a cricket fan and have done poof* weeding () so will like to have a read, if that's OK.

*No offence meant. Bad pun, sorry.

Just FYI

I sent it to my Kindle but the type was too small & too faint in the PDF to read easily. I'll use an alternative.

Thanks for the info I thinks its the pdf coversion thats the problem I'll be uploading it to amazon as a RTF file that works better as a conversion. hope you enjoy it

BTW! Consider using a different font.

The one you used is (IMO) hard on the eye. Palatino is my personal favourite.

Oh, and have you got a relative from Basildon called Derek with the same surname as yours?

Not that I'm aware of.....

And regarding the font I think (from what I remember) it will default to Amazon's standard font when uploaded to the Kindle store... but will check when I send it to them
