I’ve tried to split genres apart as much as possible so there’s more likely to be something that interests everyone each day.

The main page for the event is here, hope you like it! http://kaymacleodbooks.com/iac2017/ posts will go up each morning from 1st- 25th December.

There is also going to be a Facebook event running alongside the whole event, they only allow two week events though so it’s split into two parts https://www.facebook.com/events/14030... and https://www.facebook.com/events/12690...

It would be really great if you could invite people to the event, and even better if you take part too. I want this to be a place the readers can interact with the authors, and they are more likely to take an interest in your book if they take an interest in you first!

I’ll be doing Christmas-themed questions every day, but feel free to ask other questions, run your own giveaways or flash sales, do games or quizzes, or anything you can think of to make it a great experience for our readers. If you can do at least one thing on your own day, it will keep people coming back for the whole event to take part. But if you want to do more days, please do.

If you want to post an additional excerpt, trailer, teaser, or similar about your book, you can do this too, but please let’s not make this a place for spamming links, one or two on your day and maybe a couple across the event are enough. If there are too many instead of genuine interaction posts, I’ll have to start deleting them and I don’t want to do that!

Any help promoting the event would be fantastic, and very much appreciated. I’m claiming the hashtag #IACBooks if you want to use it.

Our event has already gone out to Mailchimp lists, and is being featured in the magazine Indie Authors Monthly (which you can read for free on Magtzer if you don’t already).

Thank you to everyone that has donated books and swag for the prize bags! If you still wish to donate, please ask for my address and send your prizes before the end of November so I can take photos ready for the launch!

If you want to donate eBooks, please email me a copy of the books you’d like to give away in the formats you have, and let me know how many you’re happy to give. I won’t give more than you’ve stated, and I’ll delete the files from my PC at the end of the event. Thank you so much!

I’ll keep you all updated as things happen, here’s to a great time and a fantastic opportunity for all of us. Please get in touch if you have any questions or ideas to make this even better.

Take care,

Kay
