Recently iUniverse featured long-standing author, Lois Scott on our iUniverse Author Focus site so we asked her what feedback she had received since our coverage. This is what she said:-
“I published my first book Shadow of the Savage with iUniverse—then didn’t know where to go from there. I didn’t know how to promote a book. I knew it was in the iUniverse Bookstore, but was so terribly unsure of myself.
Now iUniverse has reviewed it and I will be able to write a blog to let the reader know something about it. When it first appeared on Facebook, I got two responses the first day, and several days later, a lady called to let me know she had stayed up until three o’clock in the morning—reading my book. Today a neighbor approached me to ask if I had a copy she could read.
Life is good”

Now see what Lois has to say about her book Shadow of the Savage:-
“The history of the Northwest is a story of adventure and danger. Buckskin-clad hunters and fur trappers; their survival skills honed to a sharp-edged perfection, held sway. Great mountains of pine and blue spruce, sparkling rivers and crystal waterfalls; from which could be heard the hunting cry of the wolf pack on cold wintery nights.
Into this land of wild challenges—targeting the fledgling seaport town of Astoria Oregon— came a boatload of women, to become brides for lonely frontiersmen; start families and settle the land. It was for them a new beginning and a chance to fulfill the dreams that every woman cherishes. These women came from all walks of life—and Shadow of the Savage characterizes and personalizes their fears and determinations; the conflicts of everyday frontier life and the uncertainty of each decision. The reader gets a sensitive peek into the very soul of apprehensive and unsure women and men who live in the shadow of this wild and primitive Eden.”
