Carole’s comments from the Navigating Indieworld Discussing All Things Indie group.

I tried to get my kids to read for pleasure- They never enjoyed fiction. They are avid non-fiction reads and Michael is a novelist- Double no figure.

YAY! Anna!!!

Congrats Anna!!

Please let me know if you have any questions. Here are the new Swag Bag sheets...

Good luck, Ted. Great series.

I hope this medicine works out better, Alex!!

Thanks, Dennis (Jodi)

I had to hire a formatter to redo all the illustrated books. They kept rejecting the manuscript. The dimensions were off and I had to get ben’s wife the redo most of them. We are almost finished I didn’t want to get lost when everything was transferred over

Nah- they look the same.

Pretty page, Marie.

I just moved all of the books to KDP print. I heard they will make everyone change sometime in November and I wanted to avoid having issues. It took over three months to move all the books.

Justin wrote: "Ah the swag bag promo :)

Two questions I think I've asked before but I'll ask again:

When sending your books, are certain award shows better then others?

Are certain genres preferred over others..."

It's your preference. We never know who exactly will be receiving the swag bags. There's no genre preference, either. As long as you're in it, you have a shot at having someone in the entertainment industry taking your book home with them. At the very least, our Swag Bag book list will also be in the Swag Bags for them to see all of our authors. :) - Britt

I pulled all our books off. I hated being totally dependent on amazon. Also when they moved to the page reads thing our sales tanked. Some of my friends are saying now that amazon cracked down on abusers they’re doing much better

I did very well with Facebook ads when Julie ran them for me. I don’t do as much now. Good luck with it. Dj. I think it should help a lot. No pain no gain
