Earlier I had posted that you can now buy Lady Wynwood’s Spies, Volume 7: Spinster on my website. But I forgot to mention that for a limited time, if you buy the eBook or the paperback , you’ll also get the annotated edition eBook with Easter Eggs, behind-the-scenes tidbits, research notes, and random author commentary FREE. Once the book goes into Kindle Unlimited, I can no longer offer the annotated version on my website, so be sure to get it now before the book goes up on Amazon. 10% off coupon code for ALL BOOKS I finally got all the Lady Wynwood’s Spies regular paperbacks in my store, and if you use the coupon code website10 , you can get 10% off all the eBooks and paperback books in my shop! NOTE: If you’re waiting for the Special Edition paperbacks, those will be available in my Kickstarter later this month. Get 10% off https://camilleelliot.com/shop/
Not that I’m the authority on predicting any of this stuff, however, if Apple does come out with a smaller tablet later this year, I don’t know if I would use it.
Right now, I am not really using my iPad as a substitute computer. I do use it when I write--I have my scene index displayed on it while I type on my Alphasmart. I use my iPad to watch movies and read books, but it’s a bit heavy for bookreading if I don’t have it propped up on a table in front of me.
For reading, I still prefer my Nook because it’s smaller and lighter and the eInk technology makes it look like a book, so the screen doesn’t fatigue my eyes. Since I’m at the computer so much, that’s a key factor for me.
For the other stuff I use the iPad for, a smaller screen wouldn’t be appealing.
How many of you guys have Kindle Fires or Nook Tablets or Nook Colors? How do you use it? Primarily for reading or for other things?

I'm with Trinka - if I wanted something that small, I'd buy a Fire or another android-based tablet. My kids would love an iPad, but they are a very expensive toy and no one has yet convinced me of their functionality.
To be honest, now that I've had my iPad and used it for a while, I am convinced of its functionality, and I would choose a mini iPad over a Kindle Fire. But I think it also depends on what you'll use it for. If you're only going to read and play games on it, a Fire is a better use of your money.
