Picture it. You sit around a campfire, masterfully weaving your tale of horror, when suddenly that 13 year old in the back asks "Hey, isn't this story just Stephen King's Christine?"

Crap, you think to yourself. You thought you were being clever, renaming the car Lewanda and telling everyone it was a Prius. Now, not only is your story ruined, but your "street cred" has been "punked" and everybody's "hip" to how "square" you really are.

Don't let this be you. For just 99 cents, you can be a Campfire Hero. With four tales from a self described "master of horror" and a man once described as "pretty good at cooking scrambled eggs," you can protect yourself from calamity.

Do yourself a favor. Click the link below, the one with the pretty skull and the spiderwebs. See, even the front cover is scary, that's a good sign.

And when you decide to tell these stories, just remember this. Don't change the mustang in "They Don't Exist" to a Prius. It would just be silly.

I'm intrigued!  Very clever introduction, by the way!  Made me grin.

Good luck and congratulations!

JR-

Welcome again to KindleBoards and congratulations on your book! Took you a bit to create a thread for it, but you've done a good job!

KindleBoards is a Kindle fan and reader forum. As you browse KindleBoards, keep in mind that self-promotion, of any sort, is ONLY allowed in the Book Bazaar. (You've posted your book thread in the right place; this is just our standard reminder. )

A brief recap of our rules follows:

--Please bookmark this thread (using your browser's bookmark/favorite function) so you can update it as we ask that authors have only one thread per book and add to it when there is more information. You may start a separate thread for each book (or you may have one thread per series of books, or one thread for all of your books, it's your choice).

--We invite you to use your book cover as your avatar and have links to your book and website in your signature. Instructions are posted here

--While you may respond to member posts to your thread at any time, you may only bump your thread (back-to-back posts by you) once every seven days. Once you've responded to a member, that resets the clock to zero and you must wait seven days to post, unless another member posts before then. You may modify the latest post to reflect new information.

--We ask that Amazon reviews not be repeated here as they are easy to find at your book link. Also, full reviews from other sites should not be posted here, but you may post a short blurb and a link to the full review instead.

--Although self-promotion is limited to the Book Bazaar, our most successful authors have found the best way to promote their books is to be as active throughout KindleBoards as time allows. This is your target audience--book lovers with Kindles! Please note that putting link information in the body of your posts constitutes self promotion; please leave your links for your profile signature that will automatically appear on each post. For information on more ways to promote here on KindleBoards, be sure to check out this thread:
Authors: KindleBoards Tips & FAQ.

All this, and more, is included in our Forum Decorum: http://www.kboards.com/index.php/topic,36.0.html. Be sure to check it from time to time for the current guidelines and rules.

Oh, and one more thing: be sure to check out the index threads at the top of the Book Bazaar. . . .there are details there about how you can be listed so that our readers can find you.

Thanks for being part of KindleBoards! Feel free to send us a PM if you have any questions.

Introduction changed to stay current with the times. Glad I could make someone smile.
