Amazon ad

I set up an Amazon ad for Resurgent.

Only one sale. Jan. She wrote a review. She always buys my books and leaves a review. I wish everyone was good as her about leaving reviews.

$5 spent but no sales yet. No reads either.

I'm worried about the name. Maybe it's turning people off. With all that's happening maybe that name is bothering people? I don't know. Maybe it's just a late bloomer.

I'll see. I got 6 days to go yet.

Meanwhile maybe I'll think of an alternate title. Though I choose this one with care. The whole series titles really.  Or at least these first three that I have started.

Book is out!

Resurgent is published.

Both ebook and hardcopy. I just splashed it all over my FB groups. Free with Kindle unlimited and $2.99 regular. Hardcopy is $7.99. 

I set up an Amazon ad. But only for a week or so. I only have 3 keywords. I don't know what to put. I'll see how this ad goes.

Authors love feedback. So if you read please review.

Proof

Proof is being proofread. Looks good to me. Wanted it simple the cover. I read through it and didn't see anything wrong but then I wouldn't. :)

So hopefully it will be out by the end of the month. I got the FB post ready to go. And I plan to have a Amazon ad. Since it's a sci-fi book it might sell better. We shall see.

Next book is ready to start. I have the cover done as well. So Emergent is a go whenever I want.

I got a supernatural mystery and an Alliance book to get out before I do the second book of either time-lost or Fallborn. The plot bunnies are ruthless. They all want time but I can't do more than two books at a time or I lose concentration and nothing gets done.

I'll keep this blog and the others updated.

Proof is here!

Love it!
Just how I wanted.

Sharon should get her copy tomorrow. Then she can find a proofreader. Two more steps til release.

Still shooting for the end of the month.

Thoughts

I should get the proof Monday or Tuesday.

So it should be out by the end of the month. I plan to have a Amazon ad as soon as I can.
I think it will stir up interest at least. Sci-fi may stir up interest of its own.

I got a FB post ready for the groups. I really don't know if posting in the groups help. It seems only writers go there and most of them don't read or buy. 

We're obsessed with our own book or have sacrificed reading for writing. I read only specific writers besides writer's digest myself.  I have read two books by Springfield Missouri authors and liked them but I'm not an adventurous type.  I stick with my try-and-true authors.

Money is also a consideration. If the Kindle is over$2.99 I won't get it. I'll pay more for a hardcopy if the shipping is free or at least reasonable. But I don't have a money tree in my backyard. And a fixed income leaves little wiggle room.
