Lots of authors have contacted us to see what’s going on at BarnesandNoble.com.
In October, Barnes and Noble was the victim of a massive cyber attack, which affected not only their website, but their individual stores as well. While their main website is back up, they are still experiencing problems, including the inability to put up new ebooks submitted to their site. Some print books are taking longer for B&N to add to the site, and book covers begin added to the site very, very slowly. Unfortunately, we don’t know when B&N will have their problems fixed.
Just yesterday, Barnes and Noble posted an update. You can read that RIGHT HERE.

33 Worst Mistakes Writers Make About Blind Characters
I admire any writer who wants to tackle a blind character. But so many writers take up this challenge and FAIL. They research blindness by reading other fiction books, by observing their blind colleagues and acquaintances, and by tying on a blindfold and pretending to be blind themselves.
I understand the challenges your characters face, their triumphs, their hopes and their fears, because I've lived them. I work with people who have varying degrees of blindness every day, so I've seen every challenge, every situation you could imagine.
Let me share my knowledge to improve your writing. You can create blind characters that readers will fall in love with.
