It’s been a while since I’ve posted something, so I thought it was the right time for slightly update. Firstly, Visions of Zarua had two evaluations within hours of each other over the weekend! I’m suffering with a chilly at the moment and these reviews were the proper pick me up. See them on the Goodreads e book web page and Amazon UK. One reviewer even stated Paddren was certainly one of her high 5 favorite characters of the 12 months. That's wonderful to listen to and really makes me smile, thank you Karen.O. Visions of Zarua has acquired some great feedback over the last 12 months with 17 opinions on amazon UK and 15 on goodreads. These critiques have been my inspiration to keep writing and that i never tire of re-studying them. A UK only Goodreads competitors shall be running over the Christmas period. I’m additionally about to arrange a Rafflecopter giveaway, something I’ve not accomplished earlier than however we’ll see how that works out.

My first two beta readers evaluations are in. The consensus is that The Lost Sentinel is nearly able to publish! There’s nonetheless just a few tweaks and errors to rectify, but it’s pretty much complete. Then it’ll just want a professional edit and e-book cover. Guide 2 is written but awaiting the insertion of many, many scenes. I hope to begin planning ebook 3 quickly with a view to writing the draft during Nano subsequent November. Scary to think of Nov 2017, but it’s good to have a plan. Certainly one of my beta readers is absolutely pushing me to method brokers before I self publish The Misplaced Sentinel. She thinks it’s a a lot stronger e book than Visions of Zarua and the actual fact its e book 1 of a trilogy would possibly make it a better prospect for agents and publishers to contemplate. What do you consider switching instructions? I’ll be researching my options over the subsequent few months.
It’s thrilling, however I’ve enjoyed self-publishing and I’m not sure I want at hand over control to others. There’s additionally the rejections to face once more. Am I ready for that? I beat my 25 e-book target on Goodreads, which I’m actually pleased about. There’s still time to get another e-book or two in and I’m hoping to post a review tomorrow of A Wedding in Cornwall by Laura Briggs. There are plenty of guide tags around that I’d like to have a go at, and maybe I’ll strive to pick my favorite book of 2016. It’s harder this yr as I’ve learn more books than I’m used too. 2015 my fav e-book was Ink and Bone’ by Rachel Caine. Properly the unique publishing isn't going effectively and Kindle Unlimited KENP has gone down to zero pages for the last two months. On the again finish of October this was looking like an exciting new means of reaching readers, now I don’t know. Th is has be en created with the help of GSA Con tent Generator D em ov ersion !
I’m stuck with it until Feb 2017, after that it will likely be decision time. The second Countdown deal didn’t go to plan. It worked in the UK and US, however appeared to start at totally different instances. The amazon kindle Ads I’d scheduled didn’t work properly and the e-book price didn’t enhance on the second day for some purpose. This isn’t really a problem, nevertheless it simply made my weblog/tweets about it tougher - I didn’t want to mention value in case it all of the sudden hopped up to 1.99. I made a couple of sales, however nothing to fret the bestseller lists! I spent extra on Adverts with Facebook, Amazon and Goodreads than I made in sales. Still, it’s all exposure for the book. If you have Kindle Unlimited, don’t overlook Visions of Zarua is free to read in the UK right here and the US right here. I'd actually appreciate it of somebody who has the power would learn a couple of pages and let me know when, simply so I can check the pages read are being registered. Also, I had this crazy idea that I’d wish to hit 20 reviews on Amazon before the end of the yr. When you have read Visions, would you consider posting a short evaluation? It actually does make my day to learn them.
