Happy Mother's Day!
In celebration of Mother's Day, I'm giving away Phoenix all day today. Happy Mother's Day! Phoenix by K.K. Cook on Amazon FREE
Monday, April 22, 2013
PHOENIX IS FREE TODAY ONLY!
Since today is Earth Day I wanted to be positive and celebrate by giving away free copies of Phoenix on Amazon for your Kindle! Note that today is also the last day for both of giveaways! So if you haven't already enter, do so now.
Remember, the best thing you can do to help an author is review their book! Go on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Goodreads, Books-A-Million, or wherever it is you bought Phoenix or you like to share your reviews and write a review! Thank you!

News
It's been a while since I've posted, yeah? I wanted my last post to stay at the top for as long as possible. Otherwise people wouldn't see the giveaways. Well here's a link to the post in case you want to get to it ASAP: http://booksbykkcook.blogspot.com/2013/03/published-phoenix-release-celebration.html
Now, I have a handful of things to update you guys on. First is my book of poetry, Tangling With Words, will probably come out in June/July. You can get more info on the page I have for it up at the top of the page. Or you can click here. It was originally going to be published in April, but I had too much work to do and not enough time. So I've moved the publishing day to sometime in June or July.
I celebrate a ton of what I call 'special days.' I know, not the coolest of names, but there you have it. Now as Phoenix is enrolled in the KDP Select program, part of Amazon's self-publishing service, I can have up to 5 days of free books. I want people to read my books. Therefore, I am going to use those days when I find an opportune moment for them. Here are the two days I've selected so far.
Earth Day - April 22nd 2013
Mother's Day - May 12th 2013
So mark your calendars, because those two days Phoenix will be available for FREE! Yeah, that's right. Free. Phoenix isn't that pricey as it is, but it's going to be free, and that's about as much as you can ask for, right? So spread the word! I want people to check out my book, and if it has to be free for me to do it, then lets go!
And I've been looking into having a special edition cover for my eBook editions of Phoenix. I don't know if I'll go through with it, it really depends on cost and quality, but once that's settled everything will be all good.

Published! Phoenix Release Celebration Giveaway(s)
Isn't it amazing? All that waiting, and now it's ready! Ahhhhhhhhh! So cool! Jumping up and down! Partying! Whoop! Whoop! Oh yeah, this rocks! Whoop-dee-do! Yay! Dance party! Party dance!
Okay, dance party aside. I have some exciting news! Besides the fact that I published both the paperback and the Kindle edition of Phoenix today. I have a giveaway for you! Yay! It starts officially today and ends on April 23rd (it was a Tuesday, and it started on a Tuesday. I didn't think it really mattered beyond that). Check it out below:
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Well, technically I have two giveaways. That's the first one. The second is on Goodreads, but it's pending approval. God, I hate all of these approval waiting. First with the review of the print copy, and now this. Waiting sucks. But you can check it out below, even if it doesn't work. It may not work until I get approval for the giveaway. I don't know.
Let's get the scoop on these awesome books I just published today. They kind of rock, at least in my opinion they do.
Okay, so the print book can be found here: https://www.createspace.com/4194742 Now that's the book's personal eStore from CreateSpace. In 5-8 days Phoenix will be up on Amazon and Amazon Europe. But it looks like I found it on Amazon already. See below.
Now the Kindle edition is below! Yay! It's on the right, and the paperback edition is on the left. Awesome!
You guys kick butt so well. I'd love it if you could review my book on your blog, Goodreads, and wherever you bought my book. Thanks so much!

Final Stages
Ugh. It has been months! Nearly a year since I said I was going to start the publishing process. Now I'm done with the editing. I've got the cover. I've got the copyrights, the ISBN, I've settled everything. Now I have to wait.
Now you'd think that wouldn't be a problem, considering all of the waiting I've done already. I want to hurry up and publish it now. But I have to wait 24 hours for CreateSpace to review it before I can publish it. And that's only in print form. I hope you all like paperbacks! I hate hardcovers, and I love paperbacks, so that's all good for me.
But any of you who have been awaiting the ebook version are going to have to wait an even longer time than the rest of us. Once the print version has gone through I can do the Kindle version through CreateSpace. But I'm enrolling in the KPD Select program, so everyone who has a Nook will have to wait three more months before I publish Phoenix at Barnes & Noble.
Anyways, I wanted to give you some images expressing my feelings on this whole 'waiting' matter:
