OdiOsO: Ok, if you have a great book and you're not getting the RIGHT attention to your work (Geeez.. how do I know this? lol ) consider self publishing... One great place to start is www.createspace.com .... I'm placing the final touches to my sci-fi novel there and it's a PRINT-ON-DEMAND press.. expensive for the final customer and you must still consider to keep your day job but worthwhile if what you want is to get READ. The quality of their final product is OUTSTANDING.. My book's final physical form looks utterly COOL. Now, there's the Kindle Store at Amazon's website... that would allow electronic distribution of your work with potential one point five million potential readers out there... and a wider distribution base since now there's Kindle-on-PC and Kindle-on-iPhone readers. Worth a try. StolenHeart: storylogue.com this site requires a membership fee. I just heard about it in an ad in The Writer magazine.
