News May 12th



May 12, 2014 The VOTE 4 YOUR CHOICE poll is now open for voting.

     For those who aren’t familiar with the VOTE 4 YOUR CHOICE reader poll. The idea came about after the unexpected attention that was drawn to Reality’s Exit. Reality’s Exit is the first book under the Short Stories From The Heart series by SD Tracy Harper currently on sale in the Amazon’s Kindle Book Store. What makes this book of short stories (Extremely Long short stories) different from others, is the concept of having a synopsis and rating guide in the back of the book. This singular difference allows the reader (shameless plug) to pick the story that best fit their emotions or anti-emotions. Keeping with the same spirit of this concept gave birth to the VOTE 4 YOUR CHOICE contest. It’s unknown how revolutionary, allowing readers to have a choice on what they would wish to read before a book is published, but it can only be looked at as an opportunity to have a crap load of fun. The next question was how much information should be given to allow a person to make a conscious choice on what they would like to read? Outside the box thinking was needed, and it came with a resounding explosion.

    Two of the most agreed upon choices were a synopsis and a few sample chapters (Sneak Peeks). The synopsis was a clear, obvious direction to take, but Sample Chapters? The winning argument to this dilemma was the fact that when submitting a manuscript for review to publishing companies sample chapters are provided. It was also pointed out that several of the most prominent sellers of eBooks from established and independent authors also provide sample chapters to allow prospective buyers an opportunity to experience a small portion of what is available for them to purchase. Other examples were made, but in the end the Sneak Peek concept was accepted. Once the books were selected to participate in this unusual pairing of book to reader and not a reader trying to find a book, the VOTE 4 YOUR CHOICE contest was born. Oh, but it wouldn’t be fun not to see where readers had the greatest interest to stir up some early excitement.

     On several occasions, it was publicized what books were received the most attention. This is by no means to say they will come out the winner, but after the original site crashed and other Sneak Peeks were added, not much has changed.  There were some surprises, but overall the top three may have changed places from time to time, but they had remained strong. These books are: book #2 The Skiver Genius in 1st place, book #3 Fail To Remember in 2nd place, and bringing up the rear is  book #6 “The Emperors Heir in 3rd place.  With the polls now open, Synopsis (under the Vote 4 Your Choice tab), and Sneak Peeks of each book now available under the tab of the same name, it’s time to move on to choose the next book published by SD Tracy Harper.
