Hopeful Romantics Selected as an Amazon Kindle Blog Pick

Online, August 26, 2009 (Newswire.com) - Hopeful Romantics has been approved by Amazon's Kindle as a subscriber blog pick. The blog site can now be downloaded through Kindle at the current subscription price of $.99 a month. The blog is now auto delivered through Kindle's wireless system. The blog content is updated throughout the day.
"Hopeful Romantics is my special endeavor," said Gordon Basichis, Co-Founder of the background checking service, Corra Group, and principal writer for the blog site. "The blog incorporates social commentary, romance, politics, and culture. It incorporates a broad spectrum of life and its issues in a humorous and quirky way.
"The blog site is in its nascent stages and has enjoyed a growing number of readers. I am delighted that Kindle has approved Hopeful Romantics as one of the blogs they deliver through its wireless download system. I believe this opportunity will expand my readership on a national and worldwide level. It's quite exciting."
Prior to acceptance on Kindle's subscription list, Hopeful Romantics was only accessible through its website, www.hopefulromantics.org. As it is in its early stages, content is published a minimum of twice a week. Readers are few to comment on the blog site.
Besides his duties at Corra Group, which also includes corporate investigation and researcher, Basichis is the author of several books, "The Constant Travellers," and "Beautiful Bad Girl, The Vicki Morgan Story." His newest book, "The Guys Who Spied for China" is due to be published in October through Minstrel's Alley.
