"THE ELECTION" - MORE LISTINGS

The proof copy of "The Election" arrived yesterday from createspace.com and looked great. Within the next couple of weeks the book will appear on Amazon.com and others in createspace.com's distribution channel.

I'll soon be tackling lightningsource.com which has other international distribution channels.

It's all systems go now!

"THE ELECTION" ONLINE BOOKSTORES

"The Election" is now for sale on Australian site, Redhen - www.redhen.com.au so within Australia it can be bought there or at Booktopia - www.booktopia.com.au. And, of course on my own website - www.darrylgreer.com.

In the United States it is listed as a paperback and as an e-book on lulu.com and will shortly, courtesy of createspace.com, be on Amazon.com and other sites.

Believe it or not a second hand copy has already turned up for sale on Amazon.com.

"THE ELECTION" BOOK SIGNING EVENT

I'm delighted to report that Borders Book Store, Robina have invited me to do a book signing at their store between 11:00 am and 1:00 pm on Saturday 22 May. They have been marvellous in assisting with promotion so I'm sure it will be well attended.

"THE ELECTION" SALES

Like the proverbial London bus you wait a few days without any sales at all and just when you're about to despair at how slow things are moving, three come along at once! One paperback version is off to Arizona in the United States while two were sold locally.

"THE ELECTION" IN GOLD COAST LIBRARIES

I have donated six copies of "The Election" to the Gold Coast Library Service and delivered them to my local library for distribution to all branches. Once the books have been catalogued they will be available to customers throughout the Gold Coast.

"THE ELECTION" MARKETING CAMPAIGN

Last night my wife June and I attended a dinner in Surfers Paradise where the key speaker was the Rt Hon Joe Hockey, Australia's opposition Treasury spokesman. Joe's speech was brilliant and afterwards I presented him with a copy of "The Election."

I told him that the book was a political thriller and partly set in Canberra so he might find it interesting. Let's hope he takes it back to Canberra and reads it. I haven't had a sale in that part of the world yet!

"THE ELECTION" - MARKETING CAMPAIGN

All my hard work at marketing is beginning to pay off. My site www.darrylgreer.com now has a 3/10 Google Page Ranking which, considering the few short months it has been up and running, is very encouraging.

"THE ELECTION" - BOOK REVIEW

"The Election" has had a fantastic review for RebeccasReads.com in the US and it should be posted on their site in the next few days. I have also transcribed it onto my own site, www.darrylgreer.com
