Hello
Free Kindle promotion day one: I literally have no idea what to expect. The last time I did this with This Thirtysomething Life, I was younger, leaner, unpublished, didn't have an agent, although much like now, I had no idea what to expect either. I actually did it on a whim and didn't do any promotion other than Twitter and Facebook, and yet somehow, it got to number one on the free charts.
I like to think it was just the quality of the book, word of mouth, but in reality it was probably just bloody good luck. This Thirtysomething Life is a good book, at least the 291 people who have given it five stars on Amazon think so. There's also the 201 four star reviews too. But the thing is, I've seen plenty of brilliant books not do so well. It's a bloody lottery, so sitting here on the verge of day one of my free Kindle promotion, I'm feeling a tad nervous.
So, anyway, if you haven't read the book and somehow ended up on this blog and have no idea who I am or what I'm waffling on about, here's the synopsis for This Family Life, which is free for the next 3 days on Amazon around the world!
Things that might happen during your first year of parenthood:
1. You’ll get covered in a ‘nuclear’ poo.
2. You’ll be convinced your son is talking with a Japanese accent.
3. You’ll worry that when your son waves, it looks like a Nazi salute.
Of course, this might just be Harry Spencer.
Taking up where 'This Thirtysomething Life' left off, Harry Spencer and is wife Emily are back and trying to survive their first year of parenthood. It has its ups and downs (and a few bits in the middle), but along the way they begin to understand the true meaning of family and what it takes to be a parent.
Featuring a hilarious cast of extras including Harry’s father-in-law Derek, who has a unique problem with Scotch, Steve and Fiona, the parents from children’s entertainment hell, and a yoga instructor with a prominent camel-toe, 'This Family Life' is the ultimate comedy for anyone who is a parent, has a parent, or is thinking about becoming one.
This Family Life is a book I love because it's the sequel to the book that made me a 'proper' published author. If you haven't read it and want something honest, funny, contemporary, about men, women, marriage, parenthood, sex, love, and relationships, then please give it a go. I mean it's free, if you don't like it, all you have to do is press delete. Admittedly every time someone does that a piece of my heart breaks, but apart from that it's all just harmless fun.
Tomorrow I'll bring you all the first day news. If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook you'll probably be seeing a lot of me over the next couple of days - for which I apologise in advance.
Until next time.
Hugs,
Jon X
