Okay, so bad news first, right? I promise theres good news afterward! Bad news: I vastly overestimated how far my budget would stretch, and I was confronted with a choice. Either 1) order the free books in exchange for reviews for everybody on Facebook and in real life, the ones whod supported me throughout or 2) order the free books for the students at LHS, who had also supported me. I didnt have the money to do both. To condense my point, I elected to order the free books for the kids at LHS, basing my decision on the fact that theyre kids and probably dont have money or jobs to be able to buy a book if they wanted to. So, my apologies, everybody. I hate going back on my word, but I just didnt have the money to buy every book I wanted to buy. Now for the good news: my book is coming out on February 1, in just over a week, both the Kindle and physical copy. Further good news: my book is actually available for pre-order on your Kindle, if youre interested. If youre like me, then you dont buy physical books very often; I do all my reading on my phone with the (free) Kindle app. So if youre the type of person that likes reading on their phone, their computer, their kindle, tablet, ipad, or whatever, then you can go to Amazon, type in Fallen Victors, click the title, and then pre-order it. Pre-ordering a book would be a HUGE help to me. The more people pre-order, the more books get sold on the first day, which would help my rankings jump up, leading to more sales. Ive priced my books incredibly competitively. The Kindle version of my book is only $2.99, and the physical copy of my book is only $9.00. Many people have told me that my profit margin is too small, but my response is that I want the most people possible to read it because thats what the point of writing is about, touching as many people as you can. I dont care about making a ton of money on it. Hopefully everybody can afford those prices. Last part: If you still want a free book in exchange for a review instead of buying either the Kindle version or physical copy, then I will still provide it, it will just have to wait until Ive gathered enough money to buy them. Message me personally if thats the case. Thanks, everybody. Hope you guys enjoy your weekend!
