Free promotion for Coincidences 23rd - 25th September - An Update
The free promotion for my novel Coincidences, which began on Sunday, is going very well.
The last time I did this free promotion, it ran over 2 days, and I had just over 1,700 downloads, the bulk of those in the UK Amazon store. This time around, it's a 3 day promotion that will end sometime early on Wednesday morning.
I've had lots of support from my readers and author friends, who have been helping out with Tweets on Twitter, and posting links to their Facebook pages. I am very grateful for the overwhelming support.
This time around, I submitted the book to quite a few of the blogs and websites that feature free books. I was lucky enough to be featured on a few of those, including Addicted to eBooks, The Serious Reader, and Free Ebooks Daily.
I have also just received an email from freebooksy saying that Coincidences has been featured there. They hand-pick the books they feature, so it's a great honour to be chosen out of all the submissions they receive.
So far, I have almost double the amount of downloads I had the last time I did the free promotion, with over a day to go. I am very pleased with the results.
Coincidences has gone to #1 in the free Kindle store in the US Drama category and also the Theater category. This to me is amazing, as last time I didn't even get any rankings on the Amazon.com site. At the time of posting this, it's #88 in the Top 100 free books in the US store and #28 in the Top 100 in the UK store (also #1 in Drama in the UK store).
I'd like to thank each and every one of you who have downloaded a copy, and helped to spread the word about the promotion. I hope you'll all continue to help with Tweeting and posting, so that the free version can be available to everyone who wants to read it.
After the 6th October, Coincidences will no longer by in the KDP Select Programme, as I want to make it available in more eBook formats and other eBook websites. So this is the last chance to grab a free copy!
Happy reading!
