Make that two ! We're getting a copy of 'How Rugby Began' as soon as we can find our beat up old Kindle 1.0. . Meanwhile I should point out that we will shortly be in a position to sell ebooks through our new Directory site. We should be able to offer a better deal than Amazon ( not difficult ) and of course a dedicated promotion package/service. Please watch this space for further details.
I would also be interested to hear about your experiences with Smashwords. Gaabriel is formatting a novel for a client at the moment for kindle, but one cant help wondering if there are better formats/platforms and how much of a market leader kindle will prove to be long term. Also interested to discover what kind of royalties authors get from kindle publications.
As for the BBC's feeble excuse re: televising The Angel Mountain Saga....wouldn't it be refreshing if for once someone spoke the truth and just said..."look, we're broke!"
Dont forget to read our interview with Brian John:- http://americymru.blogspot.com/2011/10/interview-with-welsh-writer-brian-john.html
And our review of 'Guardian Angel':- http://americymru.blogspot.com/2011/10/interview-with-welsh-writer-brian-john.html
More reviews of other volumes in the series to come. We also actively encourage member contributed reviews.
A thousand diolchs for posting Roger. An excellent and I think largely accurate analysis. Wales has moved on since the 30's ( which an essentially grim period of our history anyway ) and no amount of 'purist' nostalgia is going to bring it back. This is one of the main reasons that we started AmeriCymru 4 years ago. When you bump into people who are keen to discover their Welsh roots please refer them to us. We need new members and we need to completely reinvent Wales image in the USA imho.
Once again...diolch for posting
Any society that wants to create a page/group etc on AmeriCymru is more than welcome to do so. We will actively assist with design/promotion etc and help ( where we can ) to find new members.
By all means...please mail to americymru@gmail.com We'll do the interview as a follow up in a few weeks time when you get back.

Hi Alwyn
We'd be delighted to review the book. Also if possible an email interview?

Hi Alwyn
We are an Amazon affiliate so we just pull listings from them and promote them in our bookstore. We have no control over what they list. Do we have you listed in our bookstore? If we do I can remove you from ther for a while if that would help.

Yikes....now the awful truth about what really happened at the Travelodge will come out
