				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1677" src="http://www.valomorris.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/iBooks.jpg" alt="iBooks" width="111" height="40" />Anyone who knows me knows that I love both my Mac and my iPhone, <strong><em>especially my iPhone</em></strong>. Not only is it basically my brain (aka Mission Control), but it is <strong>my favorite camera</strong>. After all, the best camera is the one you have with you. And I have my iPhone on me 99.99999999% of the time.</p>
<p>My iPhone has been used in two daily photo challenges this year (one from <a href="http://www.valomorris.com/photo-challenge/">April</a> and the second is going on <a href="http://www.valomorris.com/zombie-boy-dec2015-photo-challenge/">right now</a>), and it gets a lot of use out on the hiking trails. One of my favorite things to do with my iPhone&#8217;s camera is use the Olloclip 4-IN-1 lens attachment and shoot macro. Spring and summer bring out the bugs, and while I prefer them to not be in my house, I do love taking extreme close-up photos of strange-looking bugs that I find outside. (Click here to view photos on my Flickr page: <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/aremid/albums/72157631257733166" target="_blank">Bugs</a> and <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/aremid/albums/72157631355009776" target="_blank">iPhoneography</a>.)</p>
<p>Not only do I love the built-in camera, but my iPhone is used to edit photos, read books, watch movies, listen to music and podcasts, and even, wait for it&#8230; <em>write stories</em>. I&#8217;m writing this blog on my iPhone right now. My latest book, <a href="http://www.valomorris.com/zombie-boy-press-start/"><em>&#8220;Zombie Boy: Press Start&#8221;</em></a> was <strong>written almost entirely <em>on my iPad</em></strong>. <em>(See #2 in the &#8220;<a href="http://www.valomorris.com/5-things-i-learned-writing-zombie-boy-press-start/">5 Things I Learned</a>&#8221; Post.)</em></p>
<p>My MacBook Air fills in the gaps (which aren&#8217;t many), and is also used to compile and publish all my books. Which brings me to the point of this blog entry. Books. Specifically, iBooks.</p>
<p>Like many indie authors, I did a stint of time in Amazon Kindle exclusivity, but now the time has come to spread my wings and take that next step into my writing career&#8217;s future.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m happy to announce that not only is <strong><em>&#8220;Zombie Boy&#8221;</em></strong> now available on <strong>iBooks</strong>, but <em><strong>ALL</strong></em> my books are! It was a goal of mine to &#8220;go wide&#8221; to all the major book retailers this year, and I am beyond thrilled to have reached that goal! Being published in <strong>51 countries</strong> is a pretty awesome feat! That&#8217;s <strong>700 million</strong> potential customers who love their iPhones as much as I do.</p>
<p><strong>To celebrate, <em>&#8220;Zombie Boy&#8221;</em> will be on sale for a limited time for $.99!</strong> <em>(Links for each book are listed below.)</em></p>
<p>Be sure to let me know what you think by leaving a review on iBooks. It may seem small, but reviews help indie authors in a <strong>HUGE</strong> way.</p>
<p><strong>Thank you!</strong></p>
