Beginning Saturday, April 1st (April Fools Day, but we're not foolin') and ending Monday, April 10th. From 9 A.M. to 9 P.M. each day, NCP authors will be dropping by the NCP Readers Loop to chat a bit, post excerpts of their backlist books, offer random prizes to participating readers, and best of all … help you discover some of the treasures you might have missed.

For your convenience, each day will feature a specific category to fit your individual reading preferences.

April 1st Anthologies, Special Collections
April 2nd Contemporary Romance
April 3rd Fantasy and Fantasy Romance
April 4th Historicals: Medieval, Westerns, Regency, and Georgian

Feel free to join us each day, on the days featuring your favorite category, or just pop in to read the excerpts at leisure. But don't miss out on the opportunity not only for prizes, but the opportunity to discover those special books that have been waiting for you to find them. So don't forget which category will be featured each day.

If you have friends you've been attempting to bring over to the ebook side, this is a great opportunity to get them hooked!

If you are not already a member of NCP's reader group, join now and discover what you've been missing.

It promises to be stupendous, Su. All titles with a publication date prior to 2006 will be included.

This is a really great promo for their backlist! How do you like working with NCP, btw? I've always wanted to sub there but keep getting distracted writing long ass novels for New York Publishers who like to reject me after months of waiting ;).

I love working with NCP, Anna. The authors are very supportive of each other (which I've found to be true with all of my publishers), and the turnaround time is terrific. The first thing I submitted, it was 4 days from initial query until I had the contract in my inbox. :)

I'm actually following a path that Angela Knight prescribed, which is: get as much out there in as little time as possible (which by necessity means shorter works) in order to build a reader base quickly. Not to say that the epubs won't take the longer works--they will.

And, back to New Concepts, they've got terrific cover artists--I mean, come on. Have you seen the cover for Atonement?!? *G*
