We don't often blow our own trumpet, so once in a while we think it's not a bad thing to draw some attention to new developments here at Evergreen Umbrella! After quite a bit of work, our new website is up and running and we think it looks great - it is colorful and informative and people seem to feel as "at home" as they were on our previous (and first) website.
Given that Kevin Mc is now a fully self-published author in that both of his books are available on Kindle at Amazon.com we felt that we no longer needed to have our own online store, and if you click on any book cover on our site then you will be taken directly to Amazon where you can get purchase information directly, as well as read some free samples of the work. Amazon is an amazing resource for self-publishers such as EU, and we feel that people also prefer the security of purchase transactions done with a major supplier and we understand that completely.
The new site retains our "green theme" which was very popular the first time around, but as you will notice we have incorporated some very cool new color transitions in the background to add ever-changing ambiance to the user experience. There is also now some cool atmosphere provided via background music chosen by Kevin Mc, and this will be changing fairly regularly. If it is bothersome to anyone, all you have to do is hit your "mute" button, or click the "play/plause" button on the pillar at the right of any page, and it will stop.
There is more background on the founders of EU, as well as more information on both "A QUIET RESIGNATION" and "THE MOLECULES" accompanied by a selected few reader commentaries, and thanks to those who took the time to write in with them. It wouldn't be Kevin Mc, nor EU, without some music and Kevin has insisted on continuing to provide three tracks at any given time which will be updated at least on a monthly basis.
We only got up and running around February of this year, and already we have had two websites, two Facebook biz/fan pages, this very active and colorful blog (since mid-April) and now two novels out there in the marketplace! There is no question that things have rolled along very nicely indeed and we might even be ahead of schedule, which is a very rare and cool thing. If we got all of this done during less than a year in 2012, then we can only imagine how dynamic 2013 is going to be!
That's the news for this Sunday, and we would like to end by thanking everyone who has supported us thus far, we are enormously grateful, and we intend to get bigger and better as we move along. Kevin Mc has working ideas for his third book, but is not quite ready to put "pen to paper" just yet, though given that he gave us two books in 2012 alone, well, we can't exactly complain! - Cristina Ciurli
