New Book, Little Freebie, and Coming Kindle Countdowns

Posted on

I was planning on trying to organise a little launch tour this weekend for my Beginners Guide to Publishing on Amazon, The Absolute Indie, but what with being out for the count lately and my internet connection behaving badly, it’s too late for that now. Still, there are Kindle countdown deals set to run to the eleventh of September which I can’t cancel for African Me & Satellite TV, Echoes of Narcissus, and Shadow People. I’ll post again when the countdowns start today sometime. Fly Birdie will be free from now till the ninth. Click on the cover below if you fancy a short read, and I’ll share here when The Visitation goes free tomorrow.

My other short story, Nkoninkoni’s rights have reverted to me, and is live for sale on Amazon but not enrolled in Select yet until I find out from the publisher of the anthology that it’s in whether or not the eBook is for sale anywhere else. In the meantime it’s a free download when anyone signs up for my newsletter. If you want to get it that way, just click on the picture of its cover in the sidebar. For those already signed up for my newsletter, just yell if you’d like a copy and I’ll email one to you. To see it on Amazon click on the cover below.

The Absolute Indie is on Kindle Unlimited which should be interesting – seeing how many pages of it will be read when it’s downloaded that way. Here it is – poor thing – the most epic how not to launch a book ever. I’ll give it a better boost later when the memories of the Reaper subside.

    I’ve only been published in the traditional manner, which sounds great but also means that getting the “pulse” of Amazon algorithms and all the rest of it is something I haven’t begun to do. I’m toying with self-publishing my third book so I might have to get to grips with this stuff. The thought is making me nervous already

      You should self-publish a short story first Peter. That really shows you all the things that need doing without all the terror attached to a long novel. Amazon’s quite easy – you just shout anytime you need any help and I’ll be happy to. It’s much cooler hanging on to all your royalties too. 🙂

          Ha ha! Teensie little things. 😀 Although even if they weren’t, I still wouldn’t be keen on sharing them for years to come. I reckon they only happen in nice numbers after a good few books, so still a long way to go for that.

    Great little book. Publishing on Kindle isn’t that hard once you’ve done it, but the first time it’s nerve-racking. Your launch is just fine. I retain the record for the worst ever…you’ll see…eventually. 😀
