Small, steady selling. Nothing to blog about!

Marketing

As per my report in one of the previous blogs, I reduced the price of SoH to $0.99 for a week and got BookGorilla to include it in their daily email posting. I reported the numbers in the week, so I’ll just say that there were some slightly higher sales after the end of the promotion, but the effect dies away quickly.

I did get a slight boost (I think) from Susan Illene promoting Darkness Haunts. Why should that help my sales? Because the two series are associated in the ‘also read’ linkage in Amazon, and it’s entirely possible that people coming in to Susan’s series will also get recommendations for Bite Back.

Amazon knows the real reasons behind many of these sales questions, but they say nothing! 🙂

Promotion

I’m appearing in a podcast for http://bitterwithoutyou.com/ on September 21st. I’m not sure how I appear in a podcast, but anyway, I’ll be answering questions and reading a section of one of the books, or whatever they decide to do with me!
