[Donna J. Shepherd Posts: 1,073 Status: Offline Ava's Secret Tea Party]

Okay, Verlakay, I added yours, and filled up one list and started another!!!     I added those that were on Amazon now.

So now we have two lists! Blue Boards I and II. Aren't we a prolific bunch?

I was sitting here reading about all your wonderful books and then realized that I, too, am anthologized!  If you're a knitter, you'll enjoy THE KNITTER'S GIFT, a collection of essays, stories, and poems edited by Los Angeles Times reporter Bernadette Murphy.  My essay is titled "Bootie Call: Pregnancy, Longing, and Really Bad Nausea".

And the list is growing!  So many talented writers around here -- how cool!

I forgot to add the BARNES AND NOBLE link for WITCH BALL.

Thanks a bunch,

[Donna J. Shepherd Posts: 1,073 Status: Offline Ava's Secret Tea Party]

Hi, Ev! I tried to get those to come up on the Amazon Listmania, but the SKU number won't work. Sorry! You have a GREAT list of books!

Donna

[Vijaya Posts: 7,104 Status: Offline Encourage]

I'd love to add mine to the list as well, but you can't get them from Amazon.  They have to be purchased directly from the publisher.  And you have to buy them in a set.     Even I can't buy individual copies.  In any case, on my website, I've made links to Perfection Learning on the covers of the books.  They are great for teachers to use in a classroom.

It's really fun to see all our books on Amazon like this.  Cool.  Very cool.

Vijaya

[mcm]

Wow! Great lists...I've already bought 2 pb's for my son (covered wagons and iron horses) and one YA for me (Witch ball)! I'll add reviews after I read em'. Great post!

[Verla Kay Posts: 4,706 Status: Offline Invite Verla Kay to speak in your area]

Hey, THANKS, mcm.  If you will email LindaJoy and I privately, we'll both send you signed bookplates for the books.  (I can speak for Linda, here. I know her well enough to know she loves to send out signed bookplates.)  Oh, and just for the record, I DID finally find my bookplates, so I'm all ready to mail them out to anyone who needs one.  Just tell me what book you want dedicated to what person and I'll go from there!

[Jeff_S Posts: 138 Status: Offline The Last Dogs: The Long Road]

Ooh, I wanna join.  If you know any kids who like young YA fantasy, I have one book out and another out at the end of the month:

Dragonlance: The New Adventures
Volume 8: Dragon Spell

Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0786937440/qid=1134941862/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-6079476-8534502?n=507846&s=books&v=glance

Barnes & Noble: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=re7a1qZC4a&isbn=0786937440&itm=1

-----------

Dragonlance: The New Adventures
Trinistyr Trilogy, Volume 2: Wizard's Betrayal

Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0786939931/qid=1134941962/sr=8-4/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i3_xgl14/102-6079476-8534502?n=507846&s=books&v=glance

Barnes & Noble: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=re7a1qZC4a&isbn=0786939931&itm=2

Cover for this book and summary is available on my web site: http://www.jeff-sampson.com/books_wizardsbetrayal.htm

And if you DO buy this book, it might be a good idea to get the first book of the trilogy, too, even though it's not written by a blue boarder: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0786937947/ref=pd_cmp_rvi_3_i/102-6079476-8534502?n=283155

I made a Wikipedia entry about the series, for any of you confused about the weird volume numbers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonlance:_The_New_Adventures

Enough links for ya?   Heh.  Anyway, that's it so far.  I also have a trilogy coming out starting Sept. 2006, just in time for next year's holidays....

[Donna J. Shepherd Posts: 1,073 Status: Offline Ava's Secret Tea Party]

Jeff, I added your books!

And Verla makes a good point - if you want your books personalized, email the authors to ask if they have bookplates. I'm sure those who do will be glad to send them - including me! 

I'll continue to add books even after the holidays as these Listmania Lists can be used all year long for birthdays and special occasions.

And to those who've emailed me to say thanks - you're welcome! It's been my pleasure to see the fruit of all our labor! I'm honored that I've been able to join the ranks of published authors this year, and happy to facilitate a way we can support each other.

Donna

[LindaJoy Posts: 391 Status: Offline Linda Joy Singleton author of SNOW DOG, SAND DOG]

MCM--Thanks for buying my book, WITCH BALL!  And you'll love Verla's books.  Her picture books should become classics, they're so great.

Jeff, great to see you posting, too. 

Congrats everyone on publishing so many wonderful books!

Well, I'm a little late (slow on the uptake) but here's the Amazon link to Pieces of Another World:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0976494329/qid=1128088003/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-8559385-6207964?n=507846&s=books&v=glance

It's about a girl named Jody whose father wakes her up in the middle of the night and takes her out to see, as he says, "pieces of another world." To Jody, everything about this unfamiliar nighttime world is new and thrilling. Maybe so, her father says, but that is not the sight he's taking her to see--until, at last, a streak of white cuts through the sky, and Jody finds herself in the midst of her first meteor shower.

[TamraW Posts: 75 Status: Offline]

I am really, really late to this post too . . . but maybe for future reference . . .

My book is The Three Grumpies.  Here is the Amazon Link http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1582348405/qid=1078750804/ref=pd_ka_1/103-6820301-3372612?n=507846&s=books&v=glance

Or you can e-mail me through my website www.thethreegrumpies.com.  I have signed hardcover and paperback copies to sell from my campground store.

The Three Grumpies is about a girl who wakes up on the wrong side of the bed.  The Grumpies follow her around all day, until she figures out how to get rid of them.

I love to see a list like this every now and again . . . especially when we're shopping!

[Donna J. Shepherd Posts: 1,073 Status: Offline Ava's Secret Tea Party]

Tamra, you're added!

And don't forget, authors and illustrators, we can still add to this list all year long!

Donna

[Donna J. Shepherd Posts: 1,073 Status: Offline Ava's Secret Tea Party]

Okay, everyone! I'm bringing this back to your attention to see if there are any new books I should add. Let me know!

Donna

[Pam Posts: 1,296 Status: Offline Brianna Bright, Ballerina Knight, 6-5-18]

Mine is out now, Donna.  Multiplying Menace: The Revenge of Rumpelstiltskin

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1570918899/sr=1-1/qid=1138726224/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-3704594-7865420?%5Fencoding=UTF8

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1570918902/ref=ed_oe_p/103-3704594-7865420?%5Fencoding=UTF8

Rumpelstiltskin is back! This time he's making mischief with his multiplying stick. Can Peter unlock the secret of the stick in time to save the kingdom? Whimsical illustrations bring fun to multiplying whole numbers and fractions.

Thanks!

[lydap]

I'm new to the list, and just discovered this thread but if it's still happening I have two books.

Mr. Touchdown, a YA novel about the desegregation of a Memphis high school in 1965.
Information about it on my site: http://lydaphillips.com/_wsn/page2.html

Available at: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0595672884/qid=1123715457/sr=8-2/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i2_xgl14/104-9752870-7155959?n=507846&s=books&v=glance
and http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=aa7EddwBBW&isbn=0595359000&itm=1

Also Peace I Ask of Thee, Oh River, an edgier YA about bullying at a girls' camp that takes a tragic turn.
http://lydaphillips.com/_wsn/page3.html

B&N: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=aa7EddwBBW&isbn=0595361722&itm=1

I love this list!

[Jo]

I'm new to the boards but would love to add my two if possible:

Tears of a Friend: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0237527316/sr=8-2/qid=1150889387/ref=sr_1_2/102-9726436-4980952?%5Fencoding=UTF8 it's a 'reluctant reader' for teenagers who have a low reading age. So, YA but in 6000 words and no complex sentences!

Moondance, a picture book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1842703242/sr=8-1/qid=1150889440/ref=sr_1_1/102-9726436-4980952?%5Fencoding=UTF8 but annoyingly the US site has no picture of the front cover. I don't know why this should be, given that there is a cover image on the UK site: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1842703242/qid=1150889500/sr=8-2/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i2_xgl/203-2171050-1863910 of course I am in the UK so that's why it was published there first.
