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

It's a good thing "virtue is its own reward," because my experiences with Amazon are depressingly similar to yours. Thank you all for sharing. I'm heading back to my word processor and starting another book.

I'll donate and spread the word!

Yes, you did all that good plot stuff...but your dialogue still rocks, your characters still quirk (?) and it's fun to read!

I'm considering the NEA convention in Boston, as my book is set in a school. Do you suppose and education convention is based solely on educational books, or is there space for fiction?

Hi everybody!
I just published my first book, Personal Pronouns
It's a mystery in a school setting and my protag is dealing with guilt after losing his wife. Here are the links:

We could really, really use your help. My fiancé's blood, sweat and tears are all devoted to his magnum opus (title to be announced), and in a new marketing design to create an interest ..."

Crystal,
this is sort of like how I did it. I emailed short stories for free and posted them on my website. SSs had same setting, some of the same characters like your fiancé's. The SSs are free; now I'm dropping the novel and it will be interesting to see if the give-away stories turn into sales.

Thank you!
