I am not sure about this and have had no actual personal experience, but I draw a different lesson from my ragged research. And it is this: It really does not help at all to give your book away. One physician said that he gave away 20,000 copies and had nothing to show for it.
I should not have said I had no experience because more than 300 people asked for a free copy of my "Spymaster" during the recent e-book Week. I have no way of knowing how many of these bought my other books.
Still, my bottom line advice--to myself only!--is, don't give away free books. Someday, when sales lag, I may re-price my older titles at 99 cents or so. But I am extremely skeptical of the "free" strategy. Could I be wrong? Of course!
