Nook Version on the Horizon

After some further research, I discovered that I can publish a Nook edition of BASEMENT SONGS without any additional costs. This is great news for any of you readers who prefer the Barnes and Noble ereader over the Kindle. If all goes well the Nook edition should be available next week. Same price as the Kindle edition.

In other news, 6-8 weeks from now the BASEMENT SONGS paperback will be listed on Amazon, as well. Pretty slick, huh? In the meantime, Lulu is still the place to find the physical book.

One of my friends inquired which edition of the book makes more money for the CF Foundation. If anyone else is curious, the paperback has a slightly higher profit margin. The added bonus is that book looks amazing. I don't want to give anything away, but the first and last pages tie into the cover.

All right, this song isn't featured in the book, but it was in consideration up until the end. I wrote about it a couple years ago on Popdose as it's one of my favorite Christmas songs. The Popdose top 50 Holiday Songs list is right around the corner and I know it's on the list.

Here are the Waitresses.

BASEMENT SONGS is now available!

What is a basement song, you ask?

Basement songs hold a special place in our hearts. Decades may pass when suddenly one of these melodies begins playing, instantly reminding you of the time and place it first sank its hooks into your heart or into your soul. It doesn't matter if it was at work, in a car, on your friend’s radio, or in your parents’ basement. What does matter is the music and how it still affects you.

In the book, I explore the songs that influenced and guided me throughout the years: from my discovery of popular music as performed by a green felt puppet to the rock anthems played by a Journey cover band. In between, life-long friendships are forged, true love is found and adversity is met head-on. Each defining moment in my life married to a song and each song an anchor to an everlasting memory. BASEMENT SONGS is a journey full of heart, humor and above all, a love of music.

For updates on the book, please continue to visit the Basement Songs website or the Basement Songs Facebook page.

I hope you will consider buying the book, liking it on Facebook and spreading the word about this project that I'm very proud to have completed.

Thank you, and have a wonderful day!

Kindle version...

Hmm. Been working on the Kindle version and it's coming along very quickly. Is it possible there will be an advance release over the weekend for my e-book readers? Stay tuned.
