As we talk about a lot here, getting lots of votes for your book idea gets you some great help towards being published. Nicole Collet’s RED is getting ever-closer to the next major milestone of 900 votes (will it happen over the weekend?). When that happens, we celebrate her success and kick things in to high gear behind the scenes! [I’d love to use a metaphor for “too many cooks spoil the soup”, but it just wouldn’t be true because our SOOP comes out even better!]

Christian Lee’s Sealed (in 2nd, up 283 votes since January) has pulled away from Vivek Kumar’s Hearts on Fire…, and Paul Long’s The Time-Walker Chronicles… has moved ahead too. Also noteworthy is Kain Fairbrooks’ Thy Broken Mind, moving up to 12th from his earlier debut at 16th place. Congrats Kain!

This month’s SOOP Dollars of $50, $40, $30, $20, and $10 go to Nicole Collet, Christian Lee, Paul Long, Vivek Kumar, and (our SOOP “chef”) founder Wade Fransson.

Remember our voting policy? That policy can be summed up as “one person, one vote, entered personally by that voter or with their express consent.” This means a level playing field and fair play. We congratulate all our authors whose book ideas are genuinely garnering the kind of interest that is pushing them towards publishing success. Keep it up, spread the word and keep voting for your favorites!

Do YOU know where you’ll spend your SOOP Dollars to improve your production, platform, and pitch?
