Category changes would be useful. I can write. Everything else is my downfall.

What device does Google Play run on? I haven't even thought of that.

I completely understand. I have done nothing to market my book anywhere other than Amazon despite being on everything that Smashwords has distributed to for the last 6 months. I only did it to get on iBooks for the hell of it)

(Marketing-I'll never get the hang of it!)

Ads look terrific. I sort of feel out of the loop with the restrictions on advertising erotica.

Yes they're there. I just googled the web address. They have their catalogues online. I couldn't possibly own all the eReaders available. The one I struggle with is iBooks. I find it difficult to find anything via iTunes on the laptop which is Windows. Someone rated my book on iBooks apparently that that hasn't shown up. It's an utter mystery.

I didn't know they sold it Sainburys! I'm on Nook (and everything else) via Smashwords.

I've checked us both out. We're both on Kobo which is listed as Sainsbury's ebooks. The Nook website states a change to Sainsburys, but lists an invalid web address.

We're both listed here https://www.kobo.com/us/en/p/sainsbur...

Does that help? I've never sold anything other than iBooks and Amazon. But then I've not sold many copies anyway.

So I suppose it's good news. Having made some comma changes to my book, I've asked Amazon to issue an update to anyone that bought it before this week. That's a couple of dozen people if that. It looks like it's not a major enough issue for them to tell people they can get an updated version. So I suppose that's good.

Awesome news. I'll try to be brief. We are 2 years into a 4 year finance on our current car. I have Hypermobility Syndrome which has got worse since we bought the car. My right leg slides out of the socket if I sit for more than an hour in it.

Because it's a 4 year term, the amount of money we still owe on the car puts us in negative equity to hand it back. First place we went to couldn't refinance the negative equity. Took it back to the place we bought it from, not only can they refinance the remainder of that loan (which will be paid off as soon as I get my inheritance) they sold us a car that is more suited for my joints for less money than we're paying per month. It's a newer, better car than the one we have for less money per month.

You took the words right out of my fingertips.

(Mmmmm love quiche!)

Well done everyone. Doing great. I've got about 6 for one book over three platforms!

Excellent. Entered and tweeted. Good luck.

Thank you.

It's a good story Alex. I must put my reviews back up. I'm not very good at reviews. Never know what to say beyond "yeah I enjoyed that." I guess that's because I'm only aiming for that with my books.

I think you might have that one all to yourself!

Thanks Alex and thanks Mike for the interview. Shared it around and answered your question Alex.

Fantastic news well done.

Well done. I looked for ages and couldn't find it. Liked.

I think it's FB up to their usual tricks. You don't get to see everything that's posted. How they figure out who is going to see what I don't know. Some things I post don't appear on timelines for almost a week despite people being active on FB.

Do you know what date it was posted? I'm being directed to the UK page @KindleDirectPublishingUK is that the right one? (I hate FB sometimes.)
