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

Kismet, Fate, Call It What You Like

By Sara Solomon

Darius, the resident Persian cat, narrates the lives of five households in this exclusive, private close somewhere in the English countryside. You will meet folk from all different walks of life, from American, Turkish, Jewish, Muslim, rich to poor, the lucky, the unlucky. 

The stories, some funny, some sad, will unveil people from all over the world with the same fears and aspirations. Doesn’t matter what language you speak, how big your stamp collection, people are people. Wherever in the world you live, a tear is a tear, a headache is a headache and a smile is a smile. Life is the same all over. So every person holding this book is already in it.

Can none of us escape what’s meant to be? As Darius might say, “Take me for instance. My life could have been very different. I could have ended up being owned by a raving alcoholic, eating smelly scraps out of a plastic bowl. Only I didn’t. I am fed on the best tuna money can buy, served in a silver bowl engraved with my name. So what’s all that about then? As my mother says, ‘Kismet, fate, call it what you like’.”

 

Paperback ISBN: 9781780352282

Available at:

http://www.fast-print.net/bookshop/1064/kismet-fate-call-it-what-you-like

Coming to Amazon and Waterstones soon....
