Goodreads Ads Update & Amazon Ads

No More Goodreads AdsSo you guys know most of the goodreads ads details if you've read my blog at all. Basically I put in $50, used $0.30 a click, and didn't end up selling a lot. 524093 people saw one of my ads, and 125 of those people clicked on them. I'm fairly certain I…

Book Blitz

So I told you guys a while back that I was planning on doing a Book Blitz with YA Bound Book Tours, and that's coming up soon! Next week, in fact: June 11-15! So if any of you have a book blog/any kind of blog really and want to join in the fun, here's the…

Author Groups, Blog Tours, and Twitter

Author Groups So I am definitely more of a lone wolf when it comes to writing. I like to do things my own way, I like to edit my own work, and, for the most part, I like to use only my own ideas. I've tried to work with people before, and it's never quite…

Goodreads Ads Part 4

So I've finally settled on a description and title for my ads: The Triplets: YA Epic Fantasy The King is hunting sorcerers in Sarenia. Only six teenagers from another world can stop him.

NookPress Sucks (and so does iBooks)

Here is a list of problems with NookPress: They told me my bank information didn't match my tax information, when I know for a fact that they DID match (and it's worked just fine through Amazon, they've even deposited money into my account with no issues whatsoever and all my information is exactly the same…

Paperback Issues

Protip: don't start advertising your paperback on your blog before you've ordered a proof. Mostly, it looks great. But the edge design is cut off, and the margins on the inside are a little too small. But on the bright side, once this becomes a bestseller, these first flawed copies will be worth lots of…
