More GreatNews from ScottNews!!

For reasons unknown to ScottNews, the major on-line booksellers have lowered the price of Scott Frank's mystery/crime thriller, "Darkness Descends," from $19.00 to $15.95 (a 16% discount). This includes http://www.bn.com, http://www.amazon.com and http://www.booksamillion.com. In addition bn.com and booksamillion.com offer their 10% readers advantage program discount, lowering their prices to $14.36 (plus $3.95 shipping and handling). Take advantage of this price now as it is anyone's guess when the price may revert back to $19.00 (plus s&h).

Who's to know why the sudden discount (by all of them--at the same time)? Perhaps the mammoth cyberspace booksellers found out what New York Times bestselling action adventure novelist, Clive Cussler, had to say about "Darkness." (In case you forgot, the quote is repeated here: "I truly enjoyed it. A real spellbinder with a multitude of twists and turns through a labyrinth of intrigue. A read not easily forgotten...a timeless tale of suspense.")

If you need to, read an excerpt of "Darkness Descends" (or Scott's upcoming book "The Marble Killer") at http://scottfrank.writernetwork.com then search for "Darkness Decsends" at one of the on-line shops today and start reading this "timeless tale" soon! And why not give it to someone for St. Patrick's Day? Afterall, Scott has Irish blood in him...

For our friends in Canada and the UK, Amazon.com offers the book in both countries as well as, new in the UK, Blackstones and The Book Place, all at new, lower prices. And, welcome Amazon.com in both France and Germany, also selling the book!

"Darkness Descends" can also be purchased as an eBook at the following:

In the music world, "Our World" (a pop song co-written with Lene Dissing and Christian Warburg, both of Denmark) is currently being pitched by Atlanta Music Group (AMG) to artists and record labels as well as for consideration in movies and/or TV. AMG is the music producer that recently penned an agreement with the very talented Lene for this and several other songs she performs. (Her site is at http://www.dissing.net) ScottNews wishes her the very best!

Recently, Scott made contact with some more talented musicians, singers and lyricists from Texas, Florida, Tennessee, other states as yet unknown, and from as far away as France. Look for some exciting news in this area in the very near future.
