About Me
- Floyd M. Orr
- Floyd M. Orr is retired from several factions of the financial industry. His books, stories, articles, and commentaries may appear to originate from different genres, but a prevalent strain of Baby Boomer nostalgia flows fluidly through all of them. The author is probably best known as the creator of Tiddlerosis, a site dedicated to small Japanese motorcycles of the '60's, and as a book critic and commentator at Blogger News Network and at PODBRAM (POD Book Reviews & More). His next adventure in blogging was Palin Babygate. He is presently working on his eighth book in the NIAFS Series.

Tabitha - Thank you for your post about my book marketing resource site, Author Insider. I posted your blog, as submitted by Floyd O., on the Author Blogs section of AuthorInsider.com. I've also been recommending your site to authors I work with (Ann Kelly for one). This is a great blog. Regards, Dave
What an interesting way to get people interested in reading! Book trailers are like movie trailers, but for books! You can find them all over the internet now, but here is a site that's featuring them on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/booktrailers
