Prairie Springs
After rummaging through the wads of wrapping paper underneath the tree to discover the last gift has been opened, it’s always exhilarating to look up to find the stockings hanging enticingly on the mantel. This year, one stocking stuffer could score some big points, and might also explain why t-shirts and underwear were the only gifts under the tree.
Kindle, the new book-reading device by Amazon, might not fit into a pocket, but it will easily slide inside a nice-sized stocking. With a $399 price tag, nothing else needs to fit.
In a day when people have personal electronic devices oozing from every crevice of their bodies and can never be too far from an electrical outlet for fear of a recharging emergency, what’s one more gadget that could make reading a book as cool as listening to a chart-topping MP3.
L.R. Williamson, author of the newly released Prairie Springs, is offering the Kindle version of his novel at a huge discount over the bound book, hoping adult Kindle users will be more willing to download it. “Writing the book took seven years of my life. The only thing I care about now is that it’s read,” Williamson says.
Prairie Springs takes us on Anna Aron’s journey as she leaves behind New York and moves to the small, fictitious town of Prairie Springs. The 339-page hilarious and controversial novel is full of entertaining characters that will keep you turning pages, or if using a Kindle, scrolling pages, and all for under two bucks.
Both the Kindle and L.R. Williamson’s Prairie Springs are available for purchase at Amazon.com, or through the author’s website, LRWilliamson.com.
