Stores seem to be cutting back on the amount they order so there isn&#8217;t nearly as much left over.<\/p>\n<p>The eco-friendly part of my brain says this is good and prevents a lot of waste (I know frivolous things like specialty wrapped candy isn&#8217;t eco-friendly at all) but for those of us who are frugal, and want more for their money, 1\/2 priced chocolate day is a happy day indeed.<\/p>\n<p>It was a great weekend. I worked on my consulting website, tweaking a lot of little things to make them better. I knew what I was doing when I started, now I know even more. <\/p>\n<p>Then I set up a new blog for one of my favourite writers, and lets face it, one of my favourite people in the world. Writing as Natas, the Lost Messiah, Mark has a lot to say. Check it out at <a href=\"http:\/\/natas.ca\">http:\/\/natas.ca<\/a>. He&#8217;s busy posting several items from poetry to philosophical vents and plans to update daily, so check him out.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I re-read another great short story by another wonderful storyteller and need to print off one of mine to put it on the editing block tomorrow night. <\/p>\n<p>Oh by the way, look for my books in the iPad bookstore, they&#8217;re supposed to be there as part of their launch. If you don&#8217;t have an iPad, you can buy them through Amazon.com (not .ca) for your kindle or thorough Kobobooks.com and Smashwords for other e-reader formats. <\/p>\n<p><strong>The Trouble With Jake (a Young Adult Paranormal Romance)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/7609?ref=suenb\">Smashwords.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FThe-Trouble-with-Jake-ebook%2Fdp%2FB003D7LVQO%3Fie%3DUTF8%26m%3DAZC9TZ4UC9CFC%26s%3Ddigital-text%26qid%3D1269660629%26sr%3D1-1&#038;tag=papboo0e-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325\">Amazon.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kobobooks.com\/ebook\/The-Trouble-With-Jake\/book-90uudALS00G42fQZVDW7Uw\/page1.html\">KoboBooks.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Problem With Jake (an Adult Paranormal Romance)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/7621?ref=suenb\">Smashwords.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FThe-Problem-with-Jake-ebook%2Fdp%2FB003D7LVT6%3Fie%3DUTF8%26m%3DAZC9TZ4UC9CFC%26s%3Ddigital-text%26qid%3D1269660772%26sr%3D1-1&#038;tag=papboo0e-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325\">Amazon.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kobobooks.com\/ebook\/The-Problem-With-Jake\/book-uO4Y49GzzUGGDTyacx1_Cg\/page1.html\">KoboBooks.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dual Version with both stories<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smashwords.com\/books\/view\/7619?ref=suenb\">Smashwords.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FDual-Version-Trouble-Problem-ebook%2Fdp%2FB003D7LVVE%3Fie%3DUTF8%26m%3DAZC9TZ4UC9CFC%26s%3Ddigital-text%26qid%3D1269660772%26sr%3D1-3&#038;tag=papboo0e-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325\">Amazon.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/kobobooks.com\/ebook\/Dual-Version-The-Trouble-With\/book-FsS84vJqIkuAd0NWvBLk0Q\/page1.html\"><br \/>\nKoboBooks.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t have the links for iPad yet as it seems you have to have an iPad to see the store *sighs* <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alas, it&#8217;s not as good as it used to be.
