Price Experiment--Final Results

It is early (9 AM) on June 29th as I write this. As many of you know, I have 4 books available for sale on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords (which sells to Sony, Apple, Kobo, Diesel and other retail outlets). So far this month I have sold over 6,000 books in Amazon's Kindle store alone. I have also received my first check from Create Space (Amazon's POD service) for the sale of paperbacks. Granted, it was a small check, but I have high hopes of things to come. *bright, beaming smile*

I believe I have found the perfect price point for my books. Priced at 99 cents, the books are a good value for my readers and they're profitable for me. It's taken me months of fiddling with pricing to finally arrive at this conclusion. But the fact that I've had all the control (over the product, the packaging, the marketing, the pricing, etc) has been freeing and fun.

So I think this will be the end of experimenting for me. At least for the time being. I hope these blog posts have been helpful to those authors who are selling their own work, whether that work has been previously traditionally published or original fiction.

Oh, I'd love for everyone to stop by Fiction for Dessert where Karen Cantwell is featuring my book, Return of the Runaway Bride.

Happy Re-Birthday!

Sorry! This has nothing to do with enlightenment or spiritual re-birth. <g> This is an announcement about my latest romance novel. With it's gorgeous new cover and a spicier story, RETURN OF THE RUNAWAY BRIDE is my favorite backlist release so far. (Shhhh, don't tell the other releases. Ha!)

The book is currently available at Amazon (Kindle) and Barnes & Noble (Nook) and Smashwords, and it will soon be available in the Apple iBook Store, at Kobo, Diesel, and Scrollmotion.
