Read an E-Book Week: Free Spring House E-Book
Read an E-Book Week 2010—you must follow the instructions for 2010 to receive free e-books March 7-13, 2010.
This week is Read an E-Book Week, a good opportunity to read an e-book if you’ve never read one before.
And there’s no better book to read for your first e-book than my historical novel Spring House. Just one reason you might enjoy the e-book version of the book, even if you love the print edition: you can search more easily than you can flipping through the pages of a printed book. The history and genealogy in Spring House are true to known history, and many of my readers are interested in a particular battle or specific persons/families. The print book contains an index to make it easy to find people, places, and events. However, searching the electronic edition will be even easier.
If you would like a free electronic copy of Spring House: Book 1 in the Westward Sagas, leave a comment on this post by Saturday, March 14, 2009. Request a free e-book, and be sure to include your e-mail address, which won’t be visible publicly. I will e-mail you a zip file with several electronic formats (PDF, RTF, HTML).
Feel free to share why you would like to read Spring House as an e-book as well as why you like e-books or why you want to try one for the first time.
Enjoy my story, and enjoy reading an e-book during this special week.

I love reading ebooks, especially those I want to read again & again. They don’t take any room in the house and their pages don’t get torn or stained. When I travel I don’t have to lug around 3-4 books – it’s great!
Please send me a copy of your free ebooks from your Westward Series. I haven’t read them yet, but I’m sure I’ll be reading them again plus the rest of the series.

Kimi,
I live in Texas as well but have done extensive research in Greensboro. Hope you enjoy my story.
Cathy,
Your first comment doesn’t show up anywhere so apparently it got lost in cyberspace. Thanks for commenting again.
You are a pioneer today; instead of traveling in a covered wagon, you are an early adapter of e-books.
Spring House is on its way; enjoy.

Dear David,
I wrote you earlier in the week and saw my email posted, but it now seems to have disappeared so I am writing again. As an avid reader since childhood, I have enjoyed reading through different mediums beginning with paper books and then progressing to also listening to books (on audio beginning with cassettes, then CDs,and lately digital downloads) when I haven’t been able to read a physical book and still get my activities done.
This past Christmas I received a Kindle and began my wondrous journey into eBooks. I am 60 but had no problem switching to this new medium. Ebooks are here to stay right alongside of paper books! It just provides more opportunities to read and makes reading some of the longer (and heavier) books easier to handle. I travel a lot to visit my elderly mother in New Orleans. The Kindle allows me to bring a whole bookcase of reading material with me in my purse!
I am looking forward to reading your book, Spring House. I enjoy historical fiction, especially stories about the west. My family jokes that I must have been a pioneer in a previous life. Thank you for participating in “Read an eBook Week” and offering a free copy of Spring House.
Cathy
