"A must for cat lovers."

I can hardly believe it is now more than 18 months since I made a book trailer (my only one so far) for my cat charity book Coming Home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aweX0y3lvL4&feature=youtu.be

I wrote a blog post about it which has received nearly 500 views, so hopefully it has proved useful for other writers! Anyway, I've had lovely feedback on the trailer, which is a bit of a tearjerker! I hope you enjoy it and feel inspired to take a look at the book - all my royalties are donated to charity Cats Protection.

From the many Amazon 5 star reviews:

"Wonderful story"

"A must for cat lovers"

"Couldn't put the book down. Make sure you have time to read it right through before you pick it up. A lovely story."

"A touching tale for all ages"

"This book is a very good read for cat lovers of any age. I downloaded it today and could not stop reading it until I reached the end.."

Writing from the heart

It is always lovely to get nice reviews, and to know that a reader has really enjoyed reading one of your stories. So when I read a recent review on Amazon.com for my cat charity book, Coming Home, it made me feel quite emotional.

This book, about two Norwegian Forest cats who are lost, and their owner's frantic search for them to be reunited, is a special book for me, so when the reader commented,
The author writes from the heart and gives from the heart

I was both delighted and grateful, and very happy.

Thank you, Barbara, for your lovely words.

Book trailer for Coming Home!!

So here it is at last! My first ever book trailer! I'm really excited - it was a first for myself (I wrote the words and chose the images), the designer and the composer and I'm so pleased with the result.

It is to promote my cat story Coming Home and has original music specially composed.

All royalties from the book sales go to the charity Cats Protection. Thanks if you are able to share!

Cat Lovers: FREE e-book until March 13th!

My e-book Coming Home is available to download FREE until midnight March 13th (my birthday!). Here is the link:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Coming-Home-journey-special-ebook/dp/B00AGZV9WM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1363020617&sr=8-1

This is the first time this title has been part of Amazon's free promotion, since all my royalties are being donated to the charity Cats Protection. However, sales are slower than I had hoped and the free promo has helped previous titles so I am hoping it will do the same for this one, since the ultimate aim is to raise funds for Cats Protection from sales of the book.

It is, amazingly, currently No.1 on Amazon.com in the top 100 free e-books under the children's e-books/animals/cats category which is exciting, (but there are only actually 8 titles in this category!). It is also 23 in Literature and Fiction/Children's Fiction/Animals category. In the UK, it is currently ranked as follows:

Amazon Bestsellers Rank: #1,784 Free in Kindle Store (See Top 100 Free in Kindle Store)
