More Flash Than Action

[image error] I managed to address the issues plaguing the lack of descriptive content for my ebooks on Google Play. Amended versions of the books have made their way onto Google, so now it’s a matter of waiting for Google to clear out the caches and the new information should be there.
After the previous successes in getting the ONIX data sorted out, I finally published to Kobo, so now I wait for them to look through everything I supplied and list my books soon.
I also managed to sort out the publishing pipeline to iTunes. After going through the motions with iTunes Producer, I was thinking that my ONIX template probably would have been a good fit. Maybe if I fiddled with the settings some more I’ll get it worked out. I pushed both an .epub and .ibooks version of both published books to iTunes. Whether they allow two separate versions of the same title (different ISBNs so it shouldn’t matter that much) to be published at the same time, we’ll have to wait and see.
Amazon have also been quite useful, and I now have an author page, as well as what could only be described as a vanity author page, at http://www.amazon.com/author/xavieredwards. Lucky me.
Smashwords will now be pushing “A Hero’s Return” across to Sony, Barnes & Noble, Diesel, and Baker-Taylor, with “The Special Scent” currently being reviewed for release.
I’ve been busy doing things, but there’s not a lot to show for it in terms of new books, or immediate results. The results will be forthcoming, but for now it’s work against a future return.
I will say that I spent a little bit of time today typing up a story that I discovered tucked away in the back of a notebook. It’s nowhere near complete or very far developed, but there’s several interesting threads that I managed to leave dangling which should make for a good read down the line.
