If I read it right and you actually did say that your Amazon rating went down the day after promotion, do you know why?<br /><br />If I'm not mistaken, Elizabeth Craig mostly self-pubs and she is quite successful at it.

As artists, writers, we want to create and the marketing can feel like it takes over the creating part sometimes. Do you have a hard copy of your book too? I've been wondering if the face to face time at book fairs, writers workshops, readings are good place to market too. Just reflecting the other day that most of my journal sales have been from friends and friends of friends who are buying up my new journals to give to others and none are on social media! Figuring out where to place time and efforts can be the hardest part, I find!

Am working at getting my blog going again. Gave away over 100 books at an April church conference. Everyday I check my website, and every day it tells me that I don't have any orders yet. Next task, I think, is to get into an ebook on Amazon. Whew! Every day is a steep learning curve, and some days I feel quite mentally exhausted. However, my brain is writing my next book. Need to get at it, I guess.

But you're doing it! And doing it well! The next book will be much easier. The third will be a breeze.

You don't blog (very) often, so it must be that you think there's not a lot of point to promoting on the blog. Where do you find lists of these promo sites that you're talking about? <br /><br />Do you think The Mulligan would've done better if you had done as much promotion on it? (Or did you?) <br /><br />With so many Christian Fiction publishers biting the dust, not to mention Family Christian bookstores going bankrupt, it seems like self-publication is by default morphing into the only way to be published. <br /><br />You go, girl!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16900383840255608898noreply@blogger.com
