If amazon wants to cut me a check for it, I'll deposit that in the kid's college fund and giggle. <br /><br />I read your piece and see it was successful, I just have a problem with giving work away for free. There's currently 58000 free books on amazon alone right now, and all of the authors are hoping to get their work downloaded. I see too many people with hundreds of free books in their e-readers that they never get to. But, alas, it stirred some buzz and generated sales for your titles, so it can't be all that bad :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04001153274063604397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594341074652821017.post-41696319539821687022013-09-12T08:43:01.148-04:002013-09-12T08:43:01.148-04:00I'm delighted to hear of your success, William...I'm delighted to hear of your success, William.

Thanks for sharing with us. I got <i>Grave</i> when you did the freebie, and I left a glowing review. I<br /><br />I too have been hearing a lot about freebies not working anymore, but like Charles said, it depends. You need those reviews to get moving; I've mentioned this several times on our blog. All the authors I know who've had some measure of success have networks that go into action from the time the book is released. Sales spike, reviews get written and... Of course, the book must be good. <i>Grave</i> was exceptionally so.<br /><br />Good luck (not that luck has much to do with it) and may the good continue for you.Liane Spicerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05035607144500219524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5594341074652821017.post-88287274846009502352013-09-09T09:25:50.145-04:002013-09-09T09:25:50.145-04:00Very nice.

There are many marketing strategies that do not work, its good to see evidence of one that actually works.<br /><br />I did get the grave passage during the give away, but It's still on my "to be read" (or rather to be completed) list since a whole bunch of other things have taken priority.Jewel Amethysthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14813773386476356666noreply@blogger.com
