We only got to know each other when she was in her teens and eventually I got a call out of the blue from the police saying she had run away and wanted to move in with me. There was plenty of mystery attached to that scenario! (less)

I self-published with KDP Select who allow you to give your book away for a 5-day period for every 3 month period with them. The downside is your digital version has to be exclusive to Amazon. I gave away a lot of books, almost 2000. The plan was to increase my author reach and hopefully generate more reviews. Sadly as soon as the promotional deal finished there was no upturn in sales at all. It was disappointing. Though it was great to top a chart I have since come out of the exclusive deal and sell via draft 2 digital through other outlets(less)

Nick Rippington I'm an author and free book promotion seems a no brainer. How do I get started? I launched my first novel last year, the UK gangland thriller Crossing The Whitewash, which you can find on my author's page
