    A scandal concerning Amazon? No, never. (Yes, that was snark.)
    Thanks for the links!

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigOctober 18, 2015

      Alex–Hard to imagine, isn’t it? :)

      Thanks for coming by!

  2. Margot KinbergOctober 18, 2015

    Thanks, as ever, Elizabeth, for these useful links. There are a lot this time on useful promo information, and I know I’ll benefit from those. It’s always such a challenge to do promo without being obnoxious about it…

    1. Elizabeth Spann CraigOctober 18, 2015

      Margot–It really is tough not to be heavy-handed with it. Hope you have a good week!

  3. Urszula HumienikOctober 19, 2015
