Two chapters of each book, plus reviews and details can be seen by visiting http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk Also, some short stories can be read at www.myspace.com/gladyswrites
Wrinkly Writers is my http://gladyshobson.wordpress.com web site and my author site for all my books here and the USA at http://hobsonsbooks.blogspot.com
Please do visit my latest web site (created with the help of a kindly Australian fan) which shows lovely photographs of the the magical English Lake District — the setting for my latest hot Romance — and there you will read how the story interweaves with the photographed scenery. http://lakedistrictsagacheckmate.blogspot.com

I sure do wish I could understand and use all this twitter stuff etc and everything else that connects and helps sell books. Every time I try something new I get my bloomers in a twist!

    Gladys,

    I see that your works are (correct me if I'm wrong) in Print format only?

    Dare Empire is basically an ebook publishing house, so I would be VERY interested in securing the digital rights to your titles? Maybe even possibly re-releasing with new covers ect and have them in all my retail affiliate stores worldwide..

    Please email me direct dare.empire@gmail.com
    I am very interested!
