If any of you have been interested in checking out ebooks but haven't gotten around to it yet, Drollerie Press books are all on sale for $1.99 or less through Sunday. [link]
The books are available primarily in PDF, ePUB, Mobipocket, Microsoft Reader, and Sony Reader. Connie Neil has a couple of short stories in the horror antho Bump in the Night, Amy has a free short story, as do I. Deborah Grabien has two novels available, and some of you may know Mary Borsellino, whose YA is a real treat. There's something for anyone into any kind of speculative fiction.
