jvr Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Braver Deeds is the story of three people in 1890 and 1898. Matt Davys is a black cavalry trooper, a “Buffalo Soldier,” who has made a life for himself in the Army. Comes-Running is a young Lakota Sioux girl whose family is caught up in the “Ghost Dance Uprising.” Carlos Estrada-Palma was born in New York City but finds his future inexorably tied to his father’s homeland, Cuba. Braver Deeds was the First Place Winner in the Historical/Fiction category in the SouthWest Writers Contest. For more information, including the free first chapter, visit BraverDeeds.com.

Troy Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 JVR, I must say not only does your book look interesting, you've also done a terrific job of using this forum to get the word out about your book in both a professional, informative a manner. I wish more authors would do the same thing -- best of all it did not cost you a penny to get noticed by over 1,000 unique people. You video was well done too. If you would like to spend a little money I would suggest you take advantage of this service: http://videobookpromo.com/ I'd be willing to give you a substantial discount across all platforms if you are interested just drop me a line troy@aalbc.com I also noticed that you do not use an Amazon affiliate code or a short link. Here is a better link for you: http://bit.ly/braverdeeds I find these shorter links useful for use on places like Twitter. Plus these link uses an AALBC.com affiliate code which means sales count toward our Bestsellers list which is one of the most popular pages.

jvr Posted June 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 Over 400,000 German prisoners of war were brought to American during World War II. What does this have to do with Braver Deeds and buffalo soldiers? Nothing really, other than it’s the background for Prisoner Moon, my second novel. Prisoner Moon is available now in Paperback as well as Kindle and Nook eBooks. If you love historical fiction, check out Prisoner Moon at http://PrisonerMoon.com/ or on Facebook at http://Facebook.com/PrisonerMoonNovel John Van Roekel, author of Braver Deeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
