I don't think there is a timeline to stop promoting your book. There is a point where you switch gears and promote yourself especially if you have other books to be released. Really you are correct and there is better times to release your upcoming book particularly if you want to enter it into award contests. It also makes a difference if you would like your book to be released in time to be bought for Christmas gifts. I don't know of any special pricing for eBooks. I keep mine around $5.99, but many are $2.99. You may want to run sales and lower your price for a little while. I wish you good luck and great success. (less)

“Life must not be only envisioned through others eyes
it must be envisioned through your own eyes.”

When you grow old you may still exist,
but you will have ceased to live.”

Simone de Beauvoir, The Mandarins

“Fools talk, cowards are silent, wise men listen.”
Carlos Ruiz Zafon, The Shadow of the Wind

“Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.”
Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind

“Every book has a soul, the soul of the person who wrote it and the soul of those who read it and dream about it.”
