Hello, dear readers! I have a con coming up in a few weeks, so here's a timely reminder about my add-on-the-ebook program.

Currently, when you purchase a paperback book from me--say, at a convention, or ordered from Your Favorite Local Book Place--then you can add the ebook edition to your collection too. All you have to do is post a shelfie of the book on social media.

Imaginary reader asks, "Golly, Karen, what's a shelfie?"

"Glad you asked!" I reply. "A shelfie is a photograph of a book or books in your choice of setting. Standing on a shelf,  sitting on a table, in the middle of a stack of other books, whatever."

You do NOT need to be in this picture yourself (although if you are, that's extra awesome, of course.) For the pic to qualify as a shelfie, it needs only to be a photo of your purchased book somewhere in a setting of your choice. Some random options:

• On one of your bookshelves between all its neighbors.
• In your hand.
• sitting in your To Be Read Stack.
• resting on a table
• Leaning against a houseplant.
• next to a cat, dog, bird, or other pet.
• Outside on the arm of a deck chair.

Really, the opportunities are endless. Once you have your photo, post it on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter--and tag me so I don't miss it! I'm @kmherkes on Facebook & Instagram, and @dawnrigger on Twitter.

When I see it, I'll message you to find out your preferred ebook format & destination email.

I get a happy, you get a free ebook. SO SIMPLE.

There's no set end date for this program. I'll honor it as long as I can keep up with people sending me shelfies. So.

That's all for now.

Ta until later!

important postscript:  I have things set up to give buyers access to a free Kindle edition automatically when they buy print books from The Website Named For A Big River.  This is my way of making sure no one gets left out.
