Welcome To Drei Katzen Media!
WHY DREI KATZEN MEDIA...?!
I get this question all the time!...For the last 29 years, I worked as Information Systems Manger for a major US company. During that time, I bought and sold items on eBay. I could not find the time to list items and service my customers. I often dreamed of running my own business and really loved my experiences selling items on eBay.
The opportunity arose for me to finally take that dream and make it a reality. I now work full time doing what I love best. Servicing MY customers and working to increase MY business!
In choosing the name for my eBay store, I wanted something to show my German heritage. My two daughters were helping me get started and the name 'Drei Katzen' (or 3 cats in German) was a great name for us! Not only does it show my love of cats, it also reminds me of my family and heritage. The logo is a composite of my 3 cats: Keira, Jesus and Susie Wan. Keira is the mother of Jesus and Susie. Click here to see the real Stars! Yes,it is true,these cats actually own me!
I specialize in books because I am an avid reader and love books. I believe you should sell what you love! I have studied about and collect books. My collections include: John Grisham first editions, James Patterson, Stephen King and the list goes on and on! If you are looking for a rare, hard to find or out of print book, please let me know. I can help you find that special book!
Recently, I have expanded my store to include vintage and retro collectibles. I have added a large collection of vintage dinnerware and art glass. I really enjoy Noritake and most of the Japanese potteries. You'll find a large selection in my eBay store.
Occasionally, I will have different items such as clothes, jeans and designer handbags for sale. I buy all my clothing and accessories retail. I do not sell seconds or liquidations. All name brands are 100% authentic and all are backed by my Customer Satisfaction Guarantee!
I welcome all suggestions and/or comments on to better serve my customers. I appreciate all feedback and look forward to doing business with you!
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and browsing my page!
Are you a Ebay Seller or Entrepeneur Looking for Success?
Janelle is the founder of The Online Success Institute and a new site, OSI Rock Stars. That stands for, Online Success Institute Rock Stars. This new site is a place for learning. It features some pretty amazing members who have chosen success! There is so much learning on this one site...I find myself learning something new everyday! There are interviews from some of the top online business leaders, podcasts, video and audio. Not to mention, some pretty amazing members that go out of their way to answer questions, help identify items or just simply chat!
I have been to several sites looking for information on different ways to improve my online sales. There are quite a few sites that will give away free info in newsletters to try and get you to buy a costly membership. OSI Rock Stars is the only site I have found that actually delivers what it promises.
I joined in October, after being selected as one of the first users to help beta test this site. After a few weeks of testing (that went amazingly smooth, thanks to all the planning Janelle did BEFORE opening the site) the site opened to Rave Reviews by all who have experienced the power of this site. Just by joining this site, members have reported an improvement in page placement on the Google search engines...and increased traffic and sales to their online stores!
I have seen a 20% increase in my traffic and sales. I cannot say enough about this site. I always go back to what I learned at a very young age...If you want to be successful, do what successful people do. It's a very simple plan. Find out what others are doing and emmulate their actions!
If you would like to know more, whether you are a new ebayer, PowerSeller or just someone that wants to know more about online business and how to get started...click on the banner below. It will forward you to OSI Rock Stars site!

Double Cross (Alex Cross)
Just when Alex thought his life was calming down into a routine of patients and therapy sessions, he finds himself back in the game--this time to catch a criminal mastermind like no other. A spate of elaborate murders in Washington D.C. have the whole East Coast on edge. They are like nothing Alex Cross and his new girlfriend, Detective Brianna Stone, have ever seen. With each murder, the case becomes increasingly complex. There's only one thing Alex knows: the killer adores an audience. As victims are made into gruesome spectacles citywide, inducing a media hysteria, it becomes clear to Alex that the man he's after is a genius of terror--and he's after fame. The killer has the whole city by its strings--and he'll stop at nothing to become the most terrifying star that Washington D.C. has ever seen.

The Appeal
Amazon.com
A Q&A with John Grisham
1. Your new novel starts off where most courtroom dramas end--with the verdict. Where did you get the idea to reverse the usual order of events this time around?
The actual trial is not a terribly significant part of the story. Most all of the action and intrigue begins after the trial is over, with the verdict and the subsequent appeal.
2. The Appeal overtly suggests that elected judges can be bought. If the novel is meant as a cautionary tale, what's next--the Presidential primaries?
Why not? Over one billion dollars will be spent next year in the Presidential primaries and general election. With that kind of money floating around, anything can be bought.
3. Speaking of electoral politics, you've been more vocal recently about your political views ... first supporting Jim Webb for Senate and now endorsing Hillary Clinton for the White House. Have you given any thought to running for office yourself?
No. I made that mistake 25 years ago, and promised myself I would never do it again. I enjoy watching and participating in politics from the sidelines, but it's best to keep some distance.
4. This is your first legal thriller in three years. How did it feel to get back to the genre that started it all, and can fans expect another thriller from you next year?
I still enjoy writing the legal thrillers, and don't plan to get too far away from them. Obviously, they have been very good to me, and they remain popular. I plan to write one a year for the next several years.
5. Your nonfiction book The Innocent Man continues to be a bestseller in paperback. In your ongoing work with The Innocence Project, have you come across another story of the wrongfully convicted that begs to be written as nonfiction?
There are literally hundreds of great stories out there about wrongfully convicted defendants. I am continually astounded by these stories, and I resist the temptation to take the plunge again into non-fiction.
6. What's on your bedside reading list at the moment?
1. The Nine by Jeffrey Toobin, 2. Eric Clapton's autobiography, and 3. East of Eden by John Steinbeck

Duma Key: A Novel
Book Description
Six months after a crane crushes his pickup truck and his body self-made millionaire Edgar Freemantle launches into a new life. His wife asked for a divorce after he stabbed her with a plastic knife and tried to strangle her one-handed (he lost his arm and for a time his rational brain in the accident). He divides his wealth into four equal parts for his wife, his two daughters, himself and leaves Minnesota for Duma Key, a stunningly beautiful, eerily remote stretch of the Florida coast where he has rented a house. All of the land on Duma Key, and the few houses, are owned by Elizabeth Eastlake, an octogenarian whose tragic and mysterious past unfolds perilously. When Edgar begins to paint, his formidable talent seems to come from someplace outside him, and the paintings, many of them, have a power that cannot be controlled. Soon the ghosts of Elizabeth's childhood return, and the damage of which they are capable is truly terrifying. Like Lisey's Story, this is a novel about the tenacity of love and the perils of creativity. Its supernatural elements will have King fans reeling.
