Yeah, he's awesome.
Today my announcements went out about the publication of my five new books. Surprise! They’re ready two weeks early, because that’s how I roll. I am nervous because I really need people’s help, and I have no idea what the response will be. If you’re wondering what kind of help, click the fabulous-if-I-do-say-so myself new post on Indie Publishing at SkipJack Publishing, called “How to help an indie author.” Be sure to download the document I prepared specially for you guys that helps guides you easily through the step-by-step process of supporting me and other indie authors.
I thank you in advance.
Pray for me
Oh! And I almost forgot. I learned last night that I won the HWG Ghost Story contest, with an adapted excerpt from Discovering Katie and Leaving Annalise. Woot! “The Jumbie House” will appear in an anthology of ghost stories published later this year.

How You Can Help
The world of publishing is changing rapidly, but word of mouth still works best. For tips on how you can help an indie author succeed, please check out “How You Can Help An Indie Author.”
All of my books are available in print and ebook on Amazon and SkipJack. Audio is coming in July 2012. Watch my website for book signings and other events.
I have four more books coming out in the next twelve months. I promise only to email you about new releases, and I would be honored if you stayed on my enewsletter list.
Thanks,
— Pamela

Coming Soon
Watch Pamela’s website for her upcoming release of Discovering Katie in November, 2012, to be followed quickly in January, 2012 by Leaving Annalise. Leaving Annalise won the 2010 Writers Guild of Texas Manuscript award for Romance (because it’s romantic, although it is not a romance). Even better, an adapted short story from Leaving Annalise won a ghost story competition (now that’s more like it) and was selected for inclusion in an upcoming anthology of ghost stories. Stay tuned for more details.
