In the Top 100!

Thanks to everyone who's purchased a copy of Shots on Net during this first week of publication.

As of today, Shots on Net broke into the Top 100 of sports genre fiction on Amazon. I'm mixed in with the likes of Stephen King and James Patterson, which is pretty awesome if you ask me!

  1. Jay,

    I would still love to read both your books Play the Man and Shots on Net, but I don't own a Kindle and don't plan to buy one. Will your books be printed sometime soon? I really hope so!

    Have a great day
    Judith

    1. Hey, Judith! I don't have any immediate plans to print the books. Fortunately, you don't need a Kindle to read the books. All you need to do is download the Kindle app, which you can do on a tablet, smartphone, or computer.

      If that doesn't help, shoot me an e-mail (JaymeeJacobs@hotmail.com) and we'll figure out something for you. :)

      Thanks for your support!

  2. Hi, I just found your blog and books from Mel Ting's blog. I got Shots on Net and read it all evening, while watching games of my two fav hockey teams, I couldn't put it down long enough to give them full attention! But I have to say the ending killed me. It just abruptly ended and I felt rather unsatisfied. What happens next for Shay and Kevin? Are you writing another book about them? You better be!!!!

    I quite enjoyed the book, I read it straight through because I had to find out what happened with them. I did notice several editing issues, so you might want to give it another read through. Things like wrong tenses of verbs, missing words, a misspelled word, some wrong words. But it's wasn't too bad that I couldn't enjoy the plot. I'm going to look into your other book. Although I hope it doesn't end the same way!

    1. Thanks, AB, for reading the book and giving me your thoughts on it. You're one of the first feedbacks I've gotten on it, and I really appreciate it. I'm sorry if you felt unsatisfied with the ending. You might like Play the Man more, because the ending is pretty concrete while still leaving some things open ended.

      Thanks again! I love new readers, and every writer LOVES feedback. You made my Thanksgiving!

Hottie Hockey Hunks Blog Hop—GIVEAWAY!

Good morning, and happy hockey! Today is officially the start of the 2013-14 NHL season, and I for one couldn't be happier. Well, I'll be happier on Thursday when the Penguins play the Devils for the season opener, but I suppose I'm just being picky. Anyway. Have you ever heard of a blog hop? I hadn't—until I was invited to join one! So let me explain: bloggers with common interests unite to promote each other. So below, I have a link of seven other hockey romance writers you might be interested in. If you're familiar with me, then you've probably heard of Melanie Ting—a fellow writer who got her start in Blogger. But you should check out these other ladies and maybe find some new authors to enjoy! As a part of the Hottie Hockey Hunks Blog Hop , I'm sponsoring a giveaway (cue flashing lights! Cue trumpets!). I've decided to give a free copy of my new novel, Shots on Net , to one lucky reader who comments on this post! Please leave your e-mail addre...

Interview with Melanie Ting

Today I'm very happy to plug a fellow writer —and friend— Melanie Ting . She's authored some of my favorite hockey stories, including Fresh Air and How the Cookie Crumbles . Mel's climbing up the Amazon sales charts; if you haven't read her work yet, do yourself a favor and check her out! Mel took the time to talk to me about her writing and latest novel, her love of hockey, and of course, cats: What motivates you as a writer? What inspires you? I would say that real life inspires me. I love hearing the stories behind the athletes. When you read about a hockey player who struggled for years, undrafted and unwanted, before he made it to the NHL, that’s inspiring. Or if he’s just hot, well that’s inspiring in a different way. I also use things that happen to me in real life, as well as real people. In fact, if some of my friends read my novels, they’d probably kill me … slowly. But luckily, nobody I know likes hockey romances. ...

Autism Awareness Month Blog Hop

Autism Fact:    People from all nationalities and cultural, religious and social backgrounds can be autistic, although it appears to affect more men than women. I figured I’d be doing a good thing by participating in RJ Scott 's Autism blog hop and raising awareness about autism and living with the disability. But then I realized I didn’t know much about autism at all; I’ve never personally encountered someone who I knew was autistic or even on the spectrum. So how could I help raise awareness when I myself was barely aware of the stats and facts about autism? Realizing my ignorance, I reached out to a friend of mine who has a Masters in special education and has worked hands-on with autistic children—and she had tons to say about the developmental disability and how we approach it. Autistic individuals often are judged and even pitied. Adults blame meltdowns and tantrums on bad parenting. They are teased by their peers and ridiculed. Strangers stare at them. D...
