What is DaSample?

Last month, David Wisehart from Kindle Author started Sample Sunday for indie and self-published authors. We've had 3 Sample Sundays, each one has been fun, and each time my blog stats have gone up and I've seen a bump in my sales. I decided to share the fun, so I'm posting samples from other writers on my blog each weekday. A few other writers are joining me. We're calling it DaSample, which stands for Daily Sample. When you see #DaSample think of a guy with a Chicago accent saying "Da Sample."

If you'd like me to post your sample, please email me at edie@edieramer.com with an excerpt between 500-1000 words, your website link, where to buy links, a set-up or a blurb or both, a short bio if you want, and an attachment with your cover image.

Once it's up, tweet  about it. Give the link, your book title, use the hashtag #DaSample, and ask for a retweet. This is an example of one I might use: #DaSample excerpt from CATTITUDE http://bit.ly/hNLUuK #Kindle #books #Nook #cats Please RT!

The other writers posting a daily sample are Elizabeth Osorio-Reyes, Joleene Naylor, Linda S. Prather, Valerie Maarten, and Ashlynn Monroe. Be sure to stop off and check out their blogs. We'll do this for the month of January, and maybe beyond that. I have advice here on how to choose your excerpt.

Last year was an exciting time for me and for many writer friends. I have a feeling this year will be even better!
