CREST OF LIGHT: A Collection of Poetry by Bobbi Sinha-Morey
   This new collection is the very best of Bobbi Sinha-Morey. It delves deep into the stuff of life as she explores what goes in the lives of others as well as herself, expanding her waters. She writes a bit about birds again, dives into the beauty of life, often touching upon deep inner joy and pleasant idyllic scenes of how she sees the world through her eyes. This time, through her own experiences and research, she writes about Utah where she and her husband pent a total of three weeks. From all her rock hounding and sight-seeing she digs up the beauty of Utah, and the ways of the Native Indians who once lived there. At times she does nature poetry in her delicate hand, and she'll still do her haunting poetry, and diving deep down to what she fears the most.

Jack's News!
  by your Official Bookstore Cat, 
and Gossip Columnist.

Hi Everyone,

Heard from author Barbara Garro that she was profiled in Simply Saratoga Magazine (See Above).
Congratulations, Barbara, Hope the publicity will help in getting the word out about your books. Barbara is both an artist and a writer and often paints her own book covers (See Below).



Since it's the first of the month, Arline has been pretty busy preparing all the e-book editions for our latest titles, working on the web site to get them listed, and then getting the new front page up for June First. All the latest titles are listed at amazon.com, but she is still working on some of the files needed for Smashwords. Their software isn't called the "Meatgrinder" for nothing, but they distribute to hundreds of other book sites, includint those of most of the major reading device manufacturers. No, kidding. Books listed on Smashwords are also atomatically listed for sale on device sites like Nook, Kobo, Applebookstore, iPhone, and Sony. 

That's important, because most e-book buyers purchase books from the site sponsored by their reading devices, because it's easier to load them.

Please be sure to send me all your news.
Just send an e-mail to arline@mail.com with 
 "News for Jack" 

in the subject line, and

I'll make sure it shows up right here
for all the world to see!
