4. Cyber Monday Book Deals!

Yes Black Friday gets all the press, but Cyber Monday is the shopping day of the future (and you can’t get pepper sprayed through your computer)

I’ve put together a quick and easy list of links for you to do some Matthew Cody book shopping this season – signed copies, deals, stocking stuffers! Here’s your place for one-stop shopping! (Grandma loves steampunk and superheroes. Trust me)

Signed Copies of The Dead Gentleman from Books of Wonder! Missed me on tour? You can order a signed copy of this Indie Next book and get it in time for the holidays! And my handwriting is terrible! You must witness it yourself to believe it!

Deep discounts on Powerless Hardcovers from Amazon! Hardcover books are easy to wrap, and these ones are very affordable. Read it before the sequel comes out! Paperback Powerless is stocking-sized! I’ve tried. It fits perfectly in that stocking looks good doing it.

Load up a flashdrive with Audiobooks for that super-busy someone in your life!Get the Powerless audiobook from Audible! Sign up for the first time and get free downloads to load up a snazzy flashdrive for your overworked loved one. (Recommend this awesome drive, I do!)

5. MAY B. Gift Ideas for Cyber Monday

May B. doesn't come out until January 10, but that doesn't mean you can't include it on your holiday gift list! Here are a few creative ways you can help a young reader anticipate a gift that will arrive a few weeks into the new year:

Give Book Pairs
There are all kinds of books that are great companion novels for May B. Consider giving one of these titles along with a note explaining its "partner" will arrive soon.

For another frontier story with plenty of snow:
The Long Winter -- Laura Ingalls Wilder

For fans of survival stories:
Hatchet -- Gary Paulsen
Island of the Blue Dolphins -- Scott O'Dell

For another historical verse novel:
Out of the Dust -- Karen Hesse

Pre-order a Signed Copy
For those of you who would like signed copies of May B., my local independent children's bookstore, Alamosa Books, will be happy to mail them to interested customers. Feel free to drop them an email to request a copy!

Get a Signed Bookplate
I'm happy to send your reader a signed bookplate and May B. bookmark and sticker. Email me with your reader's name, and I'll include a personal note -- perfect for a stocking stuffer!

7. A Loathsome Cyber Monday (Wink, Wink)

I don't know who invented the term Cyber Monday, but I'm happy to say Loathsome, Dark, & Deep made it to Amazon just in time. Even though pre-orders are finished, you can still enter the "Very Loathsome Contest" until midnight (CST) tomorrow.

(or you could just buy five or six copies...that'd be a good idea, right?)
If you do shop online this Cyber Monday, make sure to grab wonderful books published by your favorite small presses, many of which almost exclusively sell online via Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, etc. Keep supporting the small press to make this a better world.
