May 6, 2013 - FREE Promotion Results

My second free promotion ran for three days, a Thursday - Saturday.  For my last promotion, I had 1,572 downloads in only two days.  This time around, I had only 1,173 downloads in three days.  It's possible that I had fewer downloads because my audience is dwindling.  But given that I write romance, it seems that the audience for free downloads would be considerably larger than 2,600 readers.  I have noticed, however, that my Kindle sales plummeted in the middle of April.  When I browsed the KDP community, it seemed that I was not alone.  So it seems probable that as sales were lower, free downloads might also have been lower.

Regardless, I have 2,600+ people in the world reading my work.  That is the fact that I need to remember.  Two months ago, I was only dreaming about others reading my work.  Now it's happening.  What had previously seemed a lofty dream is now a very attainable dream...thanks to the world of self-publishing.

So I'm now beginning work on my paranormal romantic suspense trilogy.
