I scooped up SOUL IDENTITY and SOUL INTENT on Kindle and was hooked! Both are excellent books; I found them to be very readable, and your characters were believable.

I’m glad to hear there will be a third book, and I’m looking forward now to 2011.

I wish you nothing but happiness and good writing!

I am reading Soul Intend now,after having finished Soul Identity, and I truly love your books and style. The first one had be totally rivetted to the screen and Soul Intend is sucking me in as well. Keep up the great work and I look forward to the next installment !!!

I have just read Soul Identity on my iPod Touch and I loved it! Especially I loved Scott and his sceptical approach and ironical remarks! I liked the plot, but I think it could have been even edgier and sharper at certain parts…

At the moment I am promoting an e-book GOG an End Time Mystery by Dan Richardson that I have taken initiative to digitally publish and distribute.

I do agree with S William Show comment: One thing I have learned is not to purchase a book merely on the cover art and back cover blurb, nor upon the promotion machine driving it. I always read the first page.

I have already downloaded two more self published books to read on my iPod Touch (both from smashwords.com). And I am waiting for my Kindle to arrive this Sunday!

Anyway, I think it is a good blog that Dennis is writing, very helpful!

Good work!!!!

I read a ton of self-pubs this year. For the most part, they have been much better reads than the books I purchase at bookstores. Of course, there are exceptions. There is a certain percentage of self-pubs that contain little to no editing, and are very clunky reads. But even those books would, most likely, read better than most I pull out of Barnes and Noble with a little elbow grease.

I understand that my statements make it seem like I am bitter towards the publishing industry, but this is not the case. My personal library contains a 20:1 ratio of big name pubs to self-pubs.

One thing I have learned is not to purchase a book merely on the cover art and back cover blurb, nor upon the promotion machine driving it. I always read the first page.

Being a self-published author myself, I know it is possible to gain some momentum. I have sold more books than I could ever have imagined.

Best of luck, and keep typing.
