Amazon Free Book Promotion
Anyone interested in trying the first book in my Origins series for free, December 5th and 6th is your chance. It will be available for free download on Amazon those two days.
I offered a free download back in October (about 2,200 downloaded it). Afterwards the sales jumped from 4 or 5 a month to 4 or 5 a day. They have tapered back a bit to around 2 a day now. I am hoping the promotion will accomplish two things for me:
1) Raise the sales rankings for book 1 and 2 high enough to get into the top 100 lists on Amazon in time for the after Christmas season (got to be visible for all those gift cards getting spent)
2) Gain some free readers who will seek out and buy book 2 and future novels in the series.
I’ll let you know how it goes. It should be fun watching book 1 spike into the top 10 free book list for a couple days at least.
