Bookpinning

by Angela Muse

Okay, I’ll admit that I have never even taken a look at pinterest. I’ve heard all about it from lots of folks who absolutely love it, but I was afraid that if I started using it I might never get any writing done. I did hear about this website though and thought it would be a good idea to pin some of my book covers on it. The website showcases books in various genres and you can then tweet or pin bookcovers to spread the word about your work. The Pig Princess has been listed for today. We are so excited for her royal swineness!

Check out BookPinning for yourself.

Ebook Sales Surge for Children’s/YA in 2012

by Angela Muse

I came across this really cool article on GeekDad that was posted in April. It talks about the increase in ebook sales for children’s/YA from 2011 to 2012. There was a 475% increase over this period…..WOW! I know some kids have their own ereaders, but I’m sure parents and grandparents are loading up their ereader devices too to get kids reading while traveling, running errands, etc. This is an incredible time to be a children’s book author and I’m proud that we are reaching so many children with our books.

This is great news and certainly something to celebrate! Reading is so important so encourage your kids to read a book today whether paperback or in electronic form.
