This past week has been a very busy one. So, I thought I'd ask what do you want me to tell you about the writing world.
There's so much to talk about, and over the past 30+ years I've learned a thing or two or three. So, contact me with some ideas of how I can help you in your quest to become an author. Like I said in earlier postings, I'm doing this blog to help you see
what I have gone through to become a published author, and now all I'm
going through to get my book to sell. The two ain't the same, believe
me. I'm struggling to learn what to do just to get my book noticed. That ain't easy either. My
publisher has done a great job of printing, editing, designing cover
art, and promoting it to Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes&Noble, etc. There are other outlets they've used to sell my book, but I can't
remember what they are.Now, I'm still trying to get reviews. The ones some of you have done for me are great and I truly appreciate them. I have a rating of 4.2 STARS on Amazon and 4.5 STARS on Goodreads. I'm learning, however, that the more reviews you get on Amazon, Goodreads, and Barnes&Noble, and the more "Likes" and "Shares" you get on Facebook the more likely you are to sell books. "Likes" let Amazon know how popular the book is on their site. "Shares" let your "Friends" know it's for sale and any other bits of information like this blog post. By the way, if you want to read the great reviews Bridgetown High has garnered so far go to this Amazon site: http://www.amazon.com/dp/1680583093/ref=cm_sw_su_dp or on Goodreads at https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26873370-bridgetown-high?from_search=true
So, if you like my book, "Bridgetown High" do me a favor and write a 5 STAR review and post it on my Amazon page.
Until next week, be thinking of what you'd like me to discuss about the writing profession and I'll try to answer as best I can.
