My brother's book is in Barnes and Noble!!!! SQUEEEEEEE!

[sekiharatae]

My younger brother has self published two books in a paranormal series. Today I found out that it was being carried by his local Barnes and Noble, and had already sold out.  They were ordering more.  This is so incredibly exciting and squee-worthy.  Everyone in my family is now trying to buy a copy from B&N -- I mean, we could just order it online, but there's something far more... real about actually buying it, in paper, at a major chain.

Sadly, my local B&N doesn't have it.  ~.~

So I'm gonna go order me some paper copies off Amazon.  If anyone else would like to support my brother, that would be fantastic.  (No pressure, mind you. Just... it would be amazingly cool.)  The series is available at Amazon in paperback, and from B&N in nook format.  And, you might be one of the lucky ones who can buy it at the local store (if you do decide to try it, and you do buy it at the store, I'd love to know so we -- the family -- can get an idea of where it's being carried).

My dad tells me that Jay was surprised to find they'd shelved it in the romance section rather than the sci-fi, but he's pretty cool with it.  'As long as they're carrying it and it's selling, it doesn't matter where they shelve it.'  ;)

Links to both Amazon and Barnes and Noble are below:

Kiss at Twilight (book one)
In paperback at Amazon
In nook format at B&N


Aurora's Kiss (book two)
In paperback at Amazon
In nook format at B&N

ETA: The books are also available direct from lulu.com, and the prices appear to be better while also giving Jay a better percentage.  (Ebook is 1.99 vice 3.99; paperback is 11.99 vice 15.99.)  Here's the link to his stuff there.

Thank you! I'm very excited for him, and to read them myself -- I haven't yet. Plus, my mom says there's a character homage to me in them. O.o

He named his main character's mother after me!!! *flails*

Ooh, I just read this summary on B&N... Sounds amazing! **Adds to Christmas list** Unfortunately, I'm too broke too afford that right now, plus, I still haven't gotten very far with Laura's book! **flails**

...I can't wait until Christmas break.

But, yeah. Congrats to your brother! I hope he sells tons more copies!

Thank you!!

I've decided to give away some e-copies of the first book, so go leave a comment on that new post if you want one ;)

That is so exciting, congratulations to him!

I like the summary blurbs, so they're going on my to-read list. Getting success self-publishing is rare, so he's already ahead of the pack by quite a ways ;)

Thank you! He's very excited, and has been thrilled by all the positive comments here. =)

I still have a few of my ten free copies if you're interested. Post is here: http://sekiharatae.livejournal.com/163282.html
