Free, Candyfloss Guitar: the tale of a modern pilgrim May 24-28

Camino Frances in June/July 2012
I couldn't keep it quiet for any longer. Candyfloss Guitar is going to be part of a series: The Reluctant Pilgrim novels. Many people have been asking what happens next to Diego, the flamenco guitarist walking the road to Santiago. Well ideas are brewing and I will soon be walking Diego's next road along the Camino and writing the second book very soon... So please keep your ear to the ground for book two.

But in the meantime we're celebrating and to share the joy Amazon is giving away the book for free from today until Saturday 28th May. So if you haven't already read Candyfloss Guitar, and looking for inspiration to walk the Camino please follow or share the links below.

Stephen Marriott, the soulful travel novelist, brings a subtle tenderness to this traveller’s tale that traverses the spiritual and physical worlds.

"It evoked lots of images of Spain for me and I could feel the sunshine coming through the page. A short but wonderfully touching book."

“A Gabriel Garcia Marquez-style tale of self-discovery kissed by the supernatural. Short, lovely and satisfying.”
"Fascinating story!"

"Amazing read! I could not put it down."


"Swept away in this short story about self discovery and being true to oneself in the end."

The Kindle book normally retails for $2.99 or the paperback version for $5.99, so please grab a free Kindle copy before the book goes up to its normal price on Sunday.
 
A guide to speaking Spanish on the Camino - enrich your pilgrim experience.
Downloaded, thank you! I have Kindle on my Android phone, and I love having something to read before I go to sleep when I’m backpacking and can’t carry heavy books. Leaving tomorrow for a 5-day hike, and looking forward to reading Candyfloss Guitar. Jill

Hola Medi

Thanks for downloading it, I hope you enjoy it and it reminds you of your Camino's. Also if you liked it I'd really appreciate it, if you could take just a little time longer, to leave an honest review on the book's Amazon page - as an indie author I need all the help I can get! Here's a link: http://bit.ly/KindleCandyflossGuitar
And I'll certainly let you know if I do walk the Camino Norte - lucky you living in Bilbao!
Buen Camino!

Hi Heather
Thanks for sharing the Amazon Canadian link for my book. As an indie author this all helps.

(It was actually @SYates who posted it, Stephen, but I have friends who are indie authors and musicians--and I'm self-employed myself. I understand how more information out gets positive word out for you 1000 fold!)
