Someone in the US wrote to me yesterday an said they were giving a talk on In the Blood at their local library next week. That's definitely a first for me (as far as I know anyway) . I don't even do those myself.
Could you not Skype the group and have a question and answer session, or just join in the chat? That would be a great marketing plan.
I don't know if they're geared up for that, Sujay. Me neither come to that. I've never Skyped! I usually offer to answer via email any questions anyone might have when I hear one of my books is being read by a book club though.

All it would take would be a laptop with Skype downloaded onto it or even a Kindle Fire HD as it is automatically on that. I have it, but have never used it, but my daughter and her friends often talk to another friend in Australia with no problem

Only happy when I am immersed in a good Kindle book Thumbs Up

701 now actually.
A very thoughtful and detailed review it is too so I thought I'd drop it in.

Nice review, Steve - I enjoyed reading it, only 700 to go now. Shocked

Nice review, Steve - I enjoyed reading it, only 700 to go now.

700 more! What happened to 800 by the end of May? Another one just came in so that's 702 now and head start on next month.

5.0 out of 5 stars Put this one on your list, April 26, 2013

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: In the Blood: A Genealogical Crime Mystery #1 (Jefferson Tayte) (Kindle Edition)
This book was most satisfying. Author Steven Robinson does a wonderful job drawing the reader into the story, piquing curiosity and making one want to solve the mystery as much as main character, Jefferson Tayte, does. Robinson beautifully sets the scene while giving one a rich flavor of the rocky towns, and inhabitants, of Cornwall. My husband & I have just finished listening to 'Careless In Red', an Inspector Lindley on book on tape. The story locations in that book are identical to 'In the Blood'. I love a good crime mystery, and genealogy is the ultimate mystery. I got the best of both worlds with this book. I've been tracing my ancestors for 20 yrs now. Having scratched my genealogy itch I set my sights on my husband's. His father was born in Cornwall, coming to the US at age 9. This was a treat to hear more about this beautiful and rugged place. I look forward to reading books #2 and 3.
