BookBub!

I’ve been waiting a while for this. If you’re an author you’ll know BookBub is reputed to be the best publicity around. Okay, it costs a heap to get your book listed for one day, and they’re very fussy about which books they accept. They want books with lots of good reviews, great covers, and at very good prices. They want to keep their subscribers happy, so good on them.

If you’re a reader, it would be well worth your while to join up with BookBub. You can do it HERE. Their mail-outs contain only the books you’ll be interested in. For example, you don’t have to wade through heaps of vampires and cookery books and sports stories if what you read is contemporary romance. You call the shots and they send only the relevant listings.

            

July 23rd is ‘my’ day for BookBub. I’ve chosen a great book which has hundreds of five-star reviews, priced it down to 99 cents, and made sure Amazon, the iBookstores, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords and Kobo all have it down to the right price on time. I’ve booked a lot of other publicity as well, because I need to sell thousands of books over the next few days to cover BookBub's one day listing price of $US580.

(A 99 cent book returns around 35 percent to the author, in case you’re wondering.)
