Selling my book
I have been selling my self-published efforts now since 2010. The new printing of Medal of Honor came out in Feb. 2015 and I am actively working on the advertisement and marketing of my recent book. In the past I sold several hundred copies at yard sales, events such as Archery Shoots, meetings with larger groups of organizations and individual sales on eBay and Amazon.com.
My current attempts to increase recognition of the book involve using all aspects of Goodreads and its reading members. I am offering 2 copies of Medal of Honor as an offering to the readers of Goodreads and I have joined the Goodreads Author's Club and have my own Author's Dashboard. I am enjoying all these efforts and learning every day about my fellow readers and I hope they like the color cover design (my original printing has a solid color cover. My granddaughter Tea Joe did the cover design and graphic work. Her Dad helped to proofread the manuscript, so this book is a family project. The best part of the published book is that I can now get on with writing another book for my new friends. May God Bless us all.
