Flying Wires has been added to LittleSamuari.com, a new web site for reading books online. Readers have free access to any of the books at the web site. Another unique aspect of LittleSamurai.com are the interactive features a publisher can add to their books. For example, Flying Wires contains hypertext that connects the reader with web sites, online documents and photographs. This media expands and enhances the story. The photos are a tangible example of something mentioned by one of the characters. The urls to organizations, events or places provide additional information about what is mentioned in the novel. LittleSamurai.com offers a reading environment that goes beyond just reading a digital book. It takes the reader into a corner of the real world behind the story.

Laurel resident hopes online book sales soar
Thursday, June 11th, 2009I was recently interviewed for a profile article about me and my novel, Flying Wires. Click here for a JPEG of Timmy Gelles’ article in the 11 June 2009 issue of The Gazette or here for a link to the online version. Only recently, have I had the time to do some marketing of Flying Wires and I’m quite pleased that this opportunity came along.
In the meantime, my Examiner.com articles and my work for NAMI Howard County are keeping me quite busy. Now that the first phase of the NAMI contract is complete, I will soon be working about 10 hours per week for the next twelve months on the second phase.

Flying Wires for Kindle and . . . iPhone
Saturday, March 14th, 2009Flying Wires is now available for download to your Kindle, Kindle 2 or iPhone [also iPod Touch]. That’s right. After a February announcement about Amazon.com’s Kindle 2, the e-books available for the Kindle products are now available for the iPhone. Perhaps Amazon.com is responding to the demand for the popular e-book format to be available on other media players besides the Kindle and Kindle 2. In this struggling economy, companies often fall back to the “whatever sells” game plan. For Kindle and Kindle for iPhone owners, take a sneak peak at Flying Wires. [See link for "Try it free."] Don’t have a Kindle or iPhone? Click here to see a sample from one of the chapters.
