Looking for book authors

Hi ladies, I'm looking for Boomer Women Authors to promote on my Amazon Listmania list. Just send me your ISBN, Title and a small blurb (1 sentence) so I can add you to my growing list. This is a great way to get your work promoted.

If you're familiar with Amazon Listmania lists, I'd appreciate it if you'd create your own boomer women authors list and add my book.

ISBN - 1594260516
TITLE - Not Without Anna
BLURB - Award winning book is a must read for parents of teenagers

[ November 12, 2004, 11:34 AM: Message edited by: Vicki M. Taylor ]

Hi Vicki, my book is "Beyond the Tears: A True Survivor's Story." The ISBN is 1-41-7-2417-4. (www.authorhouse.com for excerpts and about the author.) What I like about amazon is not only the listmania, but also how the consumer can go to other books on the subject and recommend similar books. I also like the reader reviews! I am so glad to see so many women writers here at boomers! Love and Light, Lynn

Lynn, I've added your book to the list

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/NJBHPJ3WT42R/ref=cm_aya_av.lm_more/104-9179144-2211914

Hi Vicki

MIne is:

Simpy From My Heart
ISBN: 0-9752263-0-4
Essays and Poetry on every day life.

Thanks,

Sherri

Nope, not listed, self published and still haven't gotten my books. Lost the momentum, working on nanowrimo, thanks for trying.

Sherri

Great idea.
Here is the link to my book.

Dianne Schwartz

thanks for the link, Dianne. I've added your book to my list.

Hi...I am Dianne's friend CJ

My book is Butterfly Moments

ISBN1-885640-17-X

Grammy Nominee Cynthia Jordan tells her story of Spiritual Enlightenment through her music career.

CJ,
You site is sooo cool! Thanks for sharing it with us.

JJ

CJ, thanks. I added your book to the list on Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/NJBHPJ3WT42R/ref=cm_aya_av.lm_more/104-9179144-2211914

I'll have to give this later. Haven't gotten that far. But, when I do I'll send you the ISBN and create the list you mentioned. What a great idea!

Hi Vicki,

It's so nice of you to do this! How generous.

My book is called GETTING HIP: Recovery from a Total Hip Replacement.

ISBN 1418478377

It's a patient's guide to surviving hip surgery with minimal pain and discomfort.

Thanks :-) Sigrid

My books don't have ISBN #s. I went to the website and I'm not sure if I can really afford it.

I've added your book, Sigrid, thanks for letting me know.

CJ, I love the story about your dad. He gets my vote for unsung hero!

Okay ... totally confused here! I guess since my book just got on Amazon, I haven't a clue as to what listmania is. I guess I have much to learn about being an author.

In any event, can someone better explain it to moi. And, if I create my own list, do I call it Boomer Women also? Oh...so confused here...

Well, here is the blurb on mine:

Surviving the Tough Times-How to make ends meet...NOW"

ISBN # 1591136210

Written specifically for those having a hard time making ends meet and is packed with information so you will have the knowledge and power to take better control of your life in such a difficult situation.

If it is too long, feel free to edit. Many thanks for your thoughtfulness.

Vicki, I just ran across this discussion, and would like to add my book, too:

Watercolor Bedroom: Creating a Soulful Midlife
ISBN: 1-4184-0886-7

It's a midlife woman's guide to claiming her wisdom, stepping into her authority, and creating a vision for the second half of life.

Thanks for doing this! Great idea.

my pleasure, It's been fun collecting boomer books. Now I've filled up all the slots available on my listmania list. Anyone want to start another one?

Maybe you could add my book - "LADIES: A Conjecture of Personalities" - about the First Ladies, Martha through Mamie. ISBN: 1-59286-361-2, published by PublishAmerica. It's an entertainment- not a tome!

Hi Vicki!

Just discoverd the forum and thought I'd jump in with this if it isn't too late for your listamnia.

My historical novel is
The House of Pendragon I: The Firebrand
ISBN# 1-59279-883-7
Although sired by king Arthur, fate damns Lin to wear the slave collar of her half-brother Modred.

Looking forward to chatting and making new friends here. From the posts I've sampled this seems like a very welcoming group.

If you are still adding books, I would be honored if you added mine:

The poems in Shout for Joy take you on an intimate journey through the songs of sorrow to the shouts of joy that have been woven into Sharina's life. Your heart will be moved with compassion and recognition as you travel with her on this journey.

Here is Amazon link: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1594673225/sharinsmithpo-20/104-5162532-4939101?creative=327641&camp=14573&link_code=as1

Thank you!

Hi Vicki - I'd appreciate it if you would add my book. LADIES: A Conjecture of Personalities. The First LAdies (Martha thru Mamie) each write their own chapters, and everybody (including the modern FLs) chimes in with commentary. It's an entertainment, not a tome!

ISBN 1-59286-361-2

Thanks.

Hi, mee too please. "Beyond the Tears: A True Survivor's Story" by Lynn C. Tolson ISBN 1-4107-2417-4

Hi,
I would like to put in a "plug" for my books too! I have published three, one of them "The Portly Princess of Thynneland," is a fairy tale for grown-ups about childhood obesity. My novel Sunrise Sunset is about the circle of life and coping with women's issues from infertility to Alzheimers. My first attempt at non-fiction is the hardest thing I have ever written, but may be the best. My Mother Kept a Scrapbook: the True Story of a WWII POW will be out in April.

THANKS so much :-)

Sigrid

Paula, I've added your book.

Sigrid, I can't find D'Amour Road on Amazon. One of the stipulations Amazon has for creating their Listmania Lists is that the book must be available on Amazon.

JJ, I've added your book.

Allyn, I couldn't find your book on Amazon. Might need a few more days for your publisher's info to get caught up.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/YOIED6B5Y4A9/ref=cm_aya_av.lm_more/104-6722963-9915142

ISBN: 0-595-67078-4
A traumatic medical emergency, a near-death experience and the introduction of 7 Spirit Guides transform the life of author Peg Abernathy.

Hi Vicki,
My book finally showed up at Amazon.com today, although it still shows up as unavailable. Hopefully that will change soon. But do you think it's now eligible for a listmania list? If so, here's my info, and if I can start one too, I'll start tonight/tomorrow. Thanks!

"Eagle Born to Fly: Finding Life Beyond Depression"
ISBN: 0-9680347-9-9
Eagle Born to Fly provides compassionate insight into the dark maze of mangled thinking that so often disables those who are struggling with depression.

Eagle Heart, I added your book, it doesn't have a cover image, but Amazon let it be added even though it's currently unavailable.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/YOIED6B5Y4A9/ref=cm_aya_av.lm_more/104-6722963-9915142

Thanks Vicki. I joined the Amazon Advantage (i.e., I have to pay to get my book on amazon), and I guess it takes awhile for them to put that first order in. Thank you so much for adding Eagle to your list.

I may not get around to making my list for a week...visiting avid-card-playing in-laws are making it difficult to get on-line for any length of time.

Wow! So many writers here at BWS! Here's my book. It is listed at Amazon too. I'll try to figure out how to add my own list. Thanks Vicki! This site is amazing!

ISBN - 1589393961
TITLE - Gathering Pearls
A Treasury of Inspirational Poems
BLURB - Gathering Pearls promises to calm, encourage, strengthen, enlighten, make you laugh and bring hope where there is despair.
http://www.virtualbookworm.com/gatheringpearls.html

Eagle, good thing I noticed this thread about you and Amazon. I posted the review on Amazon. Anywhere else? Love and Light, Lynn

Thanks Lynn! I only just noticed earlier this evening that Eagle was at least in the Amazon catalogue (and still only on .com, not on .ca yet). Nowhere else either, although I finally got it into ONE local Chapters store (equivalent to B&N) yesterday. Possibly another one tomorrow, and I'm playing phone tag with a third. Hard work just to get it in at the local level! Thanks again for the review!

Wordcharmer, I've added your book. Thanks for posting the information.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/listmania/list-browse/-/YOIED6B5Y4A9/ref=cm_aya_av.lm_more/104-6722963-9915142

Eagle,

So glad that you got your book on Amazon :-) That is very exciting. Now all you have to do is drive your traffic there! It's such a great book that I'm sure that you won't have any problems.

Awesome also that you got a few books into Chapters. Have you been dealing with Warren Layberry? He's been very helpful to me.

TTYA :-) Sigrid

Thank you Vicki.

Hi Vicky!

If it's not to late, can I please be added as well......
