Hey Everyone, This is Already Published.
I feel terrible that you think I spammed you. It whole heartily wasn’t my intention. My intention was to contact authors and introduce them to the site to see if it would be something they would like to be part of. I put a lot of work into creating it to help people find a book they’d like to read. I figured that by posting the first chapter anyone could sample the book, like they would when visiting an actual bookstore. [Other sites have this similar feature – such as Amazon, Lulu etc.]
The service is 100% free, I’m not scamming anyone, and there is no trick. In the few days it’s been up I’ve received great feedback from people who are finding it useful.
I came about creating the site because I have family members and two friends who are published and they were having a difficult time with PR and getting the word out that they have a book. And I notice on this site some were having a similar issue. My site is just another platform for creating awareness.
I hope you understand where I was coming from. To my understanding people were only email once [If you received two emails I apologize.] I am another person who dislikes spam and I can’t say it enough, that it wasn’t my intension to cause any inconveniences.
I truly feel awful that people feel this way. If you visit the site, you will see what it is truly meant for. I hope you find a good read [whether it is on the site or not].
John

Hi,
As a soon to be published author, (crossing my fingers!) I created a website for published authors to easily advertise their book(s) online for free.
And we also help you sell your book by adding a purchase link to websites where your book can be found. [Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, Lulu, CreateSpace etc…]
Visit
http://www.alreadypublished.com to submit your book. It’s real simple. If you have any ideas I’m open!
P.S. There are many books, which have already been submitted. If you’re looking for a good read, Already Published is a new and great place to start! Thanks John.
