Free Ebook Promotion: Even Better than Expected

I'm currently only a day into the free promotion for Wielder's Awakening. I have already been blown away by how well it is doing. Wielder's Awakening is currently the #21 ranked free book overall in the Kindle Store!!! Almost 10,000 free copies of it were downloaded yesterday. This success is partially due to three websites that featured my free book. They are BookBub, KindleBoards (www.kboards.blogspot.com), and Free Kindle Books and Tips (www.fkbooksandtips.com). Several others also picked up the free promotion and advertised. I am excited to be reaching so many new readers and hope they will enjoy Wielder's Awakening and want to continue reading the series.

Wielder's Awakening Free Ebook Promotion

Last week I signed up Wielder's Awakening for KDP Select. That means that for 3 months it has to be exclusive to Amazon. That's the down side. However, it also gives me the opportunity to do 5 days of free promotions of it. That is the real reason I signed up for KDP Select. Wielder's Awakening will be free for the Kindle tomorrow through Sunday (12/28/12 - 12/30/12). I am hoping that by offering it free for a few days I will be able to expand my audience and introduce another large group of readers to my novels. Hopefully it will be a success. I'll report back on how the promotion goes and what it does to my overall sales in the future.

Update

Since I haven't written anything on here for awhile I decided I better do an update. I am currently working on setting up an author page on Facebook and setting up promotions for Wielder's Awakening and Wielder's Fate. I also enrolled Wielder's Awakening in KDP select today so it is no longer available for the Nook. I'm trying an experiment with it to see what it does to the sales of my book. I'll report back on how it goes. I have also finished writing the prologue for "Seven Days to Meltdown" and am excited to spend more time writing again.
