Well, this doesn’t appear to have been my week!
First, the issues with having to launch a brand new Facebook page – that took some time, and I will be making updates to it over the next couple of days to have similar content as the old one.
Second, many of you have tried really hard to enter the latest Kindle Fire giveaway, but there is something wrong with the browsers on several devices that aren’t allowing you to enter the contest, or the problem is the widget interface on the Facebook page with your browser – I don’t know what the underlying problem is…
I hope this new week starting tomorrow is a lot better than this past one!
Let’s try a different way to enter the giveaway – yes, you still need to give the new Facebook page a “Like,” but try following these steps:
- Click here or go to www.facebook.com/fkbooks and click the “Like” button. If you are not logged into Facebook, you will need to do so. If you’re not a member of Facebook, you can join for free: if you don’t “do” Facebook, I’m certain there will be another giveaway soon.
- Stay logged into Facebook (i.e., don’t click the sign out option).
- Come back to this page. Down below my name (Michael), you will see the contest entry box.
- The “Enter to Win” tab should be displayed. If not, click the “Enter to Win” tab of the contest box.
- Just to the right of the text that says “Easy entry for all Free eBooks and Tips Fans on Facebook,” you will see a “+1 DO IT” icon. Click this icon, and some new text will show up in your browser with a green icon in the lower right-hand corner.
- If you have previously “Liked” the blogs new Facebook page, just click the green icon that has check mark and says “I’m a Fan” in the lower right hand corner. If you have not previously “Liked” the blog’s new Facebook page, click the Like button, then click the green icon that has the check mark and says “I’m a Fan.”
Assuming you did all of that, to confirm you are entered, the top right-hand of the contest bos has changed – if you have entered, you will see the status has changed to “1/1” in a green box. You can only enter one time for this giveaway.
Life – and these giveaways – shouldn’t be that complicated: I think I will find a new provider to manage future giveaways!
Let’s hope for all of our sake this upcoming week is better than the last!
Good luck to all who enter!
Michael
That's better!

Sorry Sher but we work at a Papermill! I ask everyone not to buy Kindles or even win them. They are putting us out of business! Read paper!!!!
I love a challenge. Lots of round the bush push here and there, but woot, it worked.
Way to go!!
Cool I love the kindle fire
I don't know how you find time to brush your teeth with all you do! I loved the trivia on Sunday. May the best of your yesterdays be the worst of your tomorrows!
I sure do love your blog and the free books.
Love the new format and am always excited to see the new free books!
Love the new format! Thanks for the links these great books & apps!
I feel bad that you had to work so hard to do to a give away! Super thank you to you! And if all eles fails, blame the computer.
Here's wishing your week only improves. Love your blog
Thank you
This for fixing that issue with the page not working! I very much appreciate it! This again!!! Have a good week!
Another great giveaway. I love the free books and hafta say, as of yesterday I had almost 6000 bks on my Kindle. I might have bought 20 myself. I finally had to remove over half to the Cloud just so I could keep downloading. And you have been a part of helping me find free books. I salute you! And thank you.
Thank you for fixing the problem. I of course thought it was me and my "computer knowledge".
Ty for everything! Hope things go better for you!
It worked!
Ya!!! It finally worked for me! Thank you Michael!!
It finally worked!
Wishing you a better week, Michael. We love you!
Thanks for providing me with allthese great books for free. I love to read and can easily read a book a day. Buying them was really putting a hurting on my pocketbook if you know what I mean. Thanks again.
Thanks for getting it fixed!
Been following you since I got my 1st kindle! Thanks for all the great tips & books!
Took three days but worked now. Love your work. Good luck
Please. Really want to win, but having difficulty entering the contest.
Continue the tremendous work!!!
Would LOVE a new fire.!! You're blog is awesome.
I just picked up a few more free books – thanks for all your efforts, despite all the challenges! Also, I love the new book cover graphics. Like you, I have to admit to judging a book by its cover sometimes.
Is this a one time only entry? So far I've only been able to enter once.
Hey, Michael, I sure understand about those bad days! Had a couple of them myself! Just remember that famous heroine of old and keep in mind that…"TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY!"
Thank you for posting these freebies. I downloaded one book and look forward to reading it.Life it good….
I think I spend more time downloading your free book links (and subsequent ones found) then I read! I love color pica of the books. It helps me spot where I left off. Thanks so much.
With all these awesome people. I don't think I have a good chance to win. But at least I still have the books.
Thanks for all you do! =D
How do u move them over to the cloud???? T Y
Still have not been able to enter contest.
You always have a chance!
It is a one time only entry!
DO you see a 1/1 or a 0/1 in the top right hand corner of the entry box?
That's how I got hooked on the free books in the first place – I was spending so much money because I was reading more than ever!
thanks!
love love love all the books and apps…thanks
Love this blog and your FB page!
Thank you foreverything! I have recommended your blog to several friends and love the new app!
Just delete from device. It will show an arrow in the bottom right hand corner showing it is not downloaded. When you want to get a book back, go to the search in the books part and they come up. That way you have an infinite amt of books you could download. To delete them permanently you have to go to Amazon and Manage My Kindle. Find the one you want deleted FOREVER and the click delete in that tiny pull down menu. Hope that helps!
TY so much, I was afraid I would take up to much room , downloading a lot of books.
not sure why but haven't been able to enter contest for the past few days, anybody else having trouble?
Thanks for what you do – I am extremely grateful every time I open my RSS feed.
You only get to enter one time for this contest!
Silly me!
A win everyday from this site, many thanks for all your hard work.
Very difficult to enter contest
I have enjoyed discovering emerging writers. Thanks!
Thank you for the offer, Michael….
Would love to be able to read your blog with a Kindle Fire. How awesome would that be…
Love this page…thanks for the opps.
Thanks so much for the contests & for all you do let us know about free Kindle books.

Thanks for all the tips!!
Luv it!!!
Thank you Michael. This is a wonderful site and enjoy it very much.
A 0/1 the enter contest does not work. Can you enter the contest for me.
Yeah, I was getting nervous having so many books but a free book is too hard to pass up so had to go thru Kindle Feedback and contact them as to what to do. I know I will probably never read everything I have downloaded but it's easier (although a pain and I wish they had a better way) to delete if I don't like it than to have to pay for it if I pass it up and then I decide I want to read it.
I love all you do and tell all about it!
Thanks!
Thanks for all your tips.
I hope to win. I am a audible subscriber and Amazon Prime Member.
I got a new kindle and lost you for awhile. My husband couldn't understand how much money I was spending a month on books. Thank God I found you again. Thanks for all you do! I love the variety!
Keep up the great work! I tell all my friends about your page!
Michael I hope your week coming goes better in the Amazon forest. I was assaulted last week and spent the week in critical care. I was unable to concentrate enough to read but through the assistance of my family your blog was the highlight of my morning. Thank you for your dedication! Your loyal subscriber.
I love your blog Michael. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Interesting app. First time logging on, looks good so far.

I would like to win so I can give this to my daughter. Thanks for all your goodnbooks.
I'm confused…. can I or can I not "listen" to audio books on my Fire?
How cool would it be, to be able to read the kindle blog on the kindle fire, anywhere , anytime.
