Your Word of Mouth Has Value
Catherine Ryan Hyde
Most of you know my novel Second Hand Heart has just been released here in the U.S., in both ebook and paperback. And I'd like to make an offer to my U.S. readers, particularly those who have e-readers (such as the Nook or Kindle). I'd like to give you an electronic copy of the book in return for your word of mouth. If, and only if, you enjoy the book, I hope you'll return the favor by spreading the word. Tell a few of your friends who read, review it on your blog, mention it to your book group...or...you tell me.
Just leave a comment, telling me how you'll spread the word if you enjoy the book. Make sure you enter your email address as you fill out the comment form. It won't show publicly. And I'll send you a code for a 100% free download.
If you don't have an e-reader, you can still download it from Smashwords as a file. But this will be more convenient, I think, for those who have electronic readers.
I'll keep this offer open until I go on vacation in the middle of September. Because I really do appreciate the value of your word of mouth. As I always say, without you, I'd be out of a job.
