But as soon as I am rich, I am signing right up. ;)

And please, recommend away!<br /><br />As far as Miss S--I'd give it a little bit for the COM hoopla to die down, then email her and ask. I have no idea if she'd be willing to do it (I've never seen her interviewed or doing anything off her own blog), but it's worth a try.<br /><br />Please recommend some good ebooks too, Sam! I definitely want to do more ebook promos in general. Glad to see you, Michelle! And please, recommend away!

I usually read whatever is put under my nose, lol. <br />I also buy a lot of e-books - I find a lot of new writers like that. I love trying new books.

I check your blog almost daily. I doubt I can do the buy the books thing. But I do hope to do recommend an author day :) And I plan on doing lots of reviews and interviews this coming year. I've been watching the COM a lot lately. Congrats on getting past the pile. But honestly, from what I've seen it looks like it was easy. Do you think Miss Snark would do a 10 Questions with me? *waves* I’m still here. I check your blog almost daily. I doubt I can do the buy the books thing.

One of these days I'll get an ebook reader myself--I'm already trying to buy more ebooks.<br /><br />Thanks, littlebirdblue! Exactly--if we don't do it, who will? And since most of us have websites and blogs, our recommendations may reach a few people. It may make no difference at all--it's not like I'm famous or anything--but I'm hoping it at least gets people thinking about branching out. I tend to glom on to one author and buy everything, which is great, but I don't buy enough new writers. So I'm trying to both help new writers and branch out my own reading a bit as well. :-)<br /><br />And yes, I'm tired of those same five authors at the store, too.<br /><br />Glad to have you on board!

I want mid-list!"-- delish...). I'm going to credit you and suggest the same on my site. Thanks for the resolution. If new writers don't support each other's efforts, we'll have to shoulder some of the blame for the death-dull boredom in life of seeing only the same five authors in every bookstore and supermarket and airport in the world. Screw that (and not in a good way).<br /><br />I'll keep watching for your posts of purchase suggestions. Let's jump-start the revolution, baby! Happy New Year! December Quinn,

While I don't think it will ever match the feel of a print book in my hands, I'm really interested in checking out more e-books this year.

Sometimes it does say it on the book, JTC, or you can look at the "other books by this author" page, and if there's nothing there or if the book you're holding is the first title listed you'll know.<br /><br />I'm hoping to eventually start getting recommendations, so we have a list of them.<br /><br /><br />Lol, I know just what you mean kis. Very few new US authors make their way over here, and even if they do most bookstores in my area don't carry them. Especially since I'm trying to focus on books that weren't award winners or bestsellers or book club books.<br /><br />Amazon is our friend. Hmmm.
