Dear all
I am taking a chance here that you know me well enough not to throw me out for a non-golf request.
In brief
my first novel has reached the 'semifinals' (actually round 2) in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award and the opening chapters can now be rated and reviewed by amazon customers.
Unfortunately this means customers of amazon.com (not amazon.co.uk), i.e. anyone from Uk has trouble summoning up support!
If any of you have bought from .com, I would greatly appreciate you (or maybe your good lady, mother, sister, aunt)posting a review.
you can find the chapters here,
http://www.amazon.com/Landscape-Love-Official-ABNA-Entrant/dp/B0012658BC

and I'm just sorry it's not the sort of thing you macho low handicappers probably read as a rule (though it's not as cheesy as the title,which I have since abandonned1)

Now I shall go and get out of the way.(And yes, I would rather be golfing)

Had a look and I think that this is something that my partner Dee would really get into. She is a keen reader and the genre in which you are writing is one of choice for her.

If the book is available for purchase you have yourself a customer AliB. Firstly because it would be a nice gift for my partner and secondly it's nice to support a felow forum member in what they do.

Hi Ali.
Is there any other way of viewing the novel as we are only registered on amazon uk and as you mention its only for .com.

If there is any other possible way to view it my mrs would love to read and review it.
If not i hope you have further success with the novel and will gladly purchase a copy when its ready for sale.

Best Wishes
 
hi alib
my mum is a short story writer she would love to give a review if there is any way i could purchase the book for her pm me and we'll get the ball rolling regards
tim :)
 
Cheers guys (success at St. A. has obviously mellowed mr madandra!)
The book is unpublished (if only!) but anyone can view the synopsis and opening chapters at
http://www.amazon.com/Landscape-Love-Official-ABNA-Entrant/dp/B0012658BC

but you can't rate or review it without a purchase.
I always like to hear what people have to say. so if anyone reads it (Tim's Mum? mwj's Dee?)you could pm me here or leave comment at
http://debutnovelist.wordpress.com/read/

thanks again!
(If I ever do get a publisher, you will be hearing!)

blimey, tim - hope I don't get too many red marks - but thanks for the input!
Have been on a few courses myself, but not for a while.
Where is your Mum published?

i'll have to check ...but dont worry she read the first few lines and said it was of a standard beyond her own. it is more of a hobby for mum but her tutor has had several novels published.
