Apple's iBookstore lists A DIAMOND IN MY POCKET as a breakout book!
Indie authors are hitting all the major bestseller lists, supported by retailers such as Apple's iBookstore that are now promoting self-published titles alongside traditionally-published books.
Feb. 5th, 2013. Apple’s iBookstore launched Breakout Books in the U.S., a new book merchandising feature that showcases books from popular self-published authors, including several that have already achieved New York Times bestseller status. The Breakout Books section can be found on the iBookstore at http://iTunes.com/BreakoutBooks.
Most major retailers reserve such high profile merchandising attention for large, long-established publishers. Although the iBookstore has always carried and supported self-published ebooks, this launch signifies an escalated commitment on the part of Apple, whose iBookstore currently sells books in 50 countries. The iBookstore first piloted the Breakout Books feature in their Australian store and has since implemented similar features in Canada and the U.K.
My novel, A Diamond in my Pocket, was privileged to be included in this launch, recognized by iBookstore’s team as a Breakout Book. Look for it in the More to Explore category.
