tentacles: A Short Story About Sawyer Creed

tentacles is available for review! Message me to get on the list to post a review!

tentacles Cover Reveal

Here it is! I know some of you ladies have been waiting for more Sawyer Creed. Well here he is! But just remember, in tentacles he is only sixteen...

tentacles Cover Reveal

Summary: Sixteen-year-old Sawyer Creed's invisible, yet undeniably real, tentacles have seemingly killed every family member who ever hurt his mom-- including his alcoholic dad.

Now on mom's wedding day, Sawyer's uncontrollable ability puts his family in imminent danger. When the tentacles stretch purposefully toward mom and her new husband, the first guy who's treated her well, Sawyer, realizing that he's on a path to destroy the ones he loves, vows to take charge of his destiny by  making mom tell him the truth about why he's different.

The tentacles seem to do his subconscious bidding when he's angry or scared. Sawyer suspects it is a family legacy, a birthright mom denies. There is only one person who has the answers, one person who can help Sawyer have some semblance of a normal life; and that person, his grandmother and the matriarch of the Creed family, is also the person mom has hidden him from all of his life. tentacles is a short story prequel to the novel Blood To Blood.

As I posted earlier, I'm thrilled about this short story and it is my hope that it will hold everyone over until the next book is released.

Readers of Blood To Blood will remember Sawyer: the mysterious, brooding producer Angel Brown vows to hate. tentacles is a family drama which takes us back in time, before Sawyer meets Angel, to a turning point in his life.

As of tomorrow, February 19,  tentacles will be available exclusively on Kindle, but soon you'll be able to download the e-version on other platforms.

Thank you very much for the welcome! Your book definitely sounds like something I'd read. I'll have to put it on my TBR list and see about getting my hands on a copy. :) Thanks again for the welcome.

Hi, I came across your blog, and I thought you would be the perfect person to contact.

My name is Jay Siva, the founder of EZBuyButton.com, an easy 'buy book' widget for authors. I'm contacting you today because I think you and your readers would love to know about the EZBuyButton widget I've created.

It is the most advanced 'buy now' widget for selling books. I make it free for authors and publishers, worldwide, to quickly and easily create and use our EZBuyButton widget to place on their website or blog to immediately increase the sales of their books, especially if their books are listed for sale in more than one retail store. I made it super easy, with just a few clicks they just copy & paste a piece of code onto their website/blog, and they're done.

The widget allows website visitors to select which device they'd like to use to read the author's book, and then select their preferred retail store that they'd like to purchase the book from. It also geolocates the visitor's location and will send the visitor to the correct country specific retail store so that they can buy the author's book. The widget is also fully customizable, and the author will have access to detailed real-time statistics of the use of their widget.

I would like to invite you to visit my website, and try out the EZBuyButton widget. I hope you find that my widget will be useful to you and your readers, including all the authors, literary agents, and publishers you're in contact with.

My website is http://www.ezbuybutton.com.

If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them for you. Thank you for your time.

kindest regards,
Jay Siva

Post Your FREE DOWNLOADS: Links to Free Books

If your book (or a friend's book) is available for free download now or within the next 24 hours, paste the link here. This way we can have a "go to" post for all free books instead of individual authors posting links that only get viewed a few times.If we keep checking back and download all the books here it will help fellow authors increase Amazon algorithms and support each other. I don't have a free download now, but will soon. :-) In the meantime, post your links. Best of luck!See More

Tagging party II: Get your book tagged on Amazon

ANOTHER UPDATE (4/17/13): Voting reviews as helpful or not seems to be becoming an important part of the Amazon algorithm. If you have 5-star reviews it might be helpful to have a lot of people vote it "helpful." 1-star and negative reviews might be "not helpful." Commenting on reviews is also helpful. At the bottom of the reviews there's a review feedback box now, it might be helpful to put something in there. So.... Let's have a voting party and vote each other reviews helpful or not helpful.…See More

Please help with an Amazon review

Hi fellow Book Blogs members,My young adult modern fantasy novel, Blood To Blood, is scheduled for December release and while it's gotten a number of Goodreads reviews so far, it is in need of more Amazon reviews.
