I'm frustrated and disheartened by the number of illegal copies I've found of SLEEPLESS. There are a lot of sites out there allowing free downloads of my book. I try to report them all to my publisher's legal department, but I'm sure I'm missing some. Not only do these free downloads take money out of my pocket, but they decrease my sales numbers. Numbers are really important, especially as a new author trying to prove herself. I would love for SLEEPLESS to go into additional printings, but illegal copies may make that harder to realize. Please, don't download books from these sites, if you want a free read please check the book out or download it from your local library. At least they pay for the books. As a librarian I always encourage people to support their local branches. And if you come into mine, I'll personally help you find a book or download it so both you and I can support the author the right way. The great thing about libraries is you can check out new authors for free and when you find one you just love, you can then go out and buy their books for your keeper's shelf. Just as I did with Rachel Hawkin's HEX HALL. Show your support for authors...JUST SAY NO to illegal downloads. :)
