Profile Information
- Something About Me and My Book:
- I began writing as a child and self-published an inspirational piece a few years ago. I have completed the first of a children's book series, A Day For The Animals. And, I'm in the process {sigh} of rewriting the intro chapters of my first mystery (which is my favorite genre). The title is The Waiting Place. It is centered around a young man returning home from overseas for his wedding and his fiancee is murdered. The incident is linked back to the young man's wealthy parents who are in the midst of a hotly contested divorce.

My new book - A Day For The Animals
The story: What if you said a prayer and then changed your mind. But before you could take it back, God answered it? When Roger Grayson said the animals should rule the world, God was listening. And his family will never be the same again.
For one day the Graysons live among the animals and learn the meaning of love, courage and commitment. Grade 3 Reading Level; 80 pages.

A Day For The Animals
"Congratulations on your story ... I enjoyed each and every moment of the read. The story kept me captivated. While reading, I was always excited to get to the next page." - Teresa Johnson, GottiTravel, LLC (www.gottitravel.com)
"I enjoyed reading this story very much, and I think children would certainly be interested." - Janice Lowery, Founder of Saving Our Children
(www.savingourchildren.bravehost.com)
"In her latest book, A Day for the Animals, Barbara Howard takes us on a journey...a journey of faith. Through the eyes of a young boy we see how even the smallest prayer, even if we are in doubt about the specifics of the prayer, God answers - whether we want Him to or not! In the beauty of His creation lies the answers to our never ending quest for purpose and truth in our troubled world which Howard elegantly and delicately shares with her readers. This book is a must-read and not only for animal lovers!" - Dr. Kim Bloomer, veterinary naturopath, author, and host of Animal Talk Naturally.

"Come and meet Rodger, the kid in all of us. Barbara Howard delivers a delightful story that every child and parent should read!"
-Antonio L. Crawford, CEO, Top Book Sales (www.TopBookSales.com)

Hiring a Ghostwriter
Even if you can write, it might make more sense to hire one or more ghostwriters to provide your articles. Needing hundreds of articles in a short amount of time will make it necessary to hire several.
There are many reasons to have someone else do your writing. The hard part is, finding a good, affordable ghost writer. You can post a bid request for the work at one of the freelance sites, such as www.elance.com or www.rentacoder.com , but you may not get a writer who can do a decent… Continue

Congratulations on your children's book series, A Day For The Animals. I just wanted to mention to you a website I built called AlreadyPublished.com. It's for authors to promote their book. You do so by posting your book's first chapter, giving readers a peek into your book. The site is free and the list of books is growing, so please check it out. :) BTW, good luck with your books!
p.s. You can also check out this blog post on the Already Published Ning Network, I explain how to post your book. You can also learn more about the website there.
Best,
John

I try, but don't work. Wordpress not accepted this tool. By widgets. I don't know, why?
Can You help me?

Great question. An informal poll of friends and fellow writers tell me that you have to be very careful. Perhaps if you hint at a second perp, instead of outright revealing there is a second evil genius that is worse then all of them, you might be able to get away with it. Just don't leave your audience feeling cheated. They won't come back for the second book.
