Gene Cartwright Keeps Expanding iFOGO Benefits for Authors

I have been part of iFOGO village pretty much from the start. It is now a ning group and growing but it is not too late for authors to get in on the ground floor with me and several of my author friends including Shirley Roe. Gene Cartwright is the trusty leader/owner of that group. This is, as they say on CNN, BREAKING NEWS, and, as they say on Fox, FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY! (-: Here is his most recent call to action:

To Carolyn's Sharing with Writers Visitors:

In part, what we are now providing is for iFOGO Village authors to have:

Their own ifogo.com website that displays their personal, existing web site as it exists. In other words they will have theirname.ifogo.com.

This provides authors the advantages presented by the connection with the name we have and are establishing.

Authors also benefit from association with our Google penetration and search engine optimization.

Authors iFOGO Web link will appear on iFOGO.com under a menu tab: "Village Authors."
They may also have an ifogo.com e-mail address. For example: JohnDoe@ifogo.com. The email address will forwarded to an existing e-mail address they designate.

In addition, those who obtain all this will also have Coverblast.com included. This gives them the ability to send their book-jackets as e-card.

Those who are already Premium of Basic Plus members will receive all this free. Others, instead of having to become Premium Members, will pay only $29.95/yr.

Also included is membership in our iFOGO Village Author+Plus group that permits author members to market their non-author products and skills.

When we announce this, it will be for iFOGO Village Members to take advantage of for a 72 hour period. All authors wanting these advantages should waste no time joining iFOGO Village.

We have more planned so please join, watch us grow and grow with us!

Very best,
Gene Cartwright

PS: I started a poetry group on iFOGO with Magdalena Ball, my co-author for She Wore Emerald Then and Cherished Pulse. It is in its infancy. We'd love to have poets join us there.
