I've been closely following the events surrounding the creation of Amazon's KDP Select program. Because of my intense curiosity and my desire to embrace new tools and technologies to get my work noticed, I've decided to register my first novel, Akhet, for the program.
What does this mean for you, the reader? Well, it means that in accordance with Amazon's terms for the program, I'm pulling Akhet down from BN.com and Smashwords, at least until April 10, 2012 (the end of the three month period that Amazon wants).
Peret and Shomu (when it's published in the next couple months) will still be available through these distributors.
The hope of this experiment is, of course, that the ability to borrow the book for a month and read it will cause a nice spike in my sales and lead to more success. We shall see.
In the meantime, I appreciate your understanding and hope that you don't hate me too much! :)
