I've certainly seen a lot of downloads over the last couple of days. I don't know how or even if it will affect my sales.Petrea Burchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043950465171821852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-22066036018396920022014-07-12T18:40:06.710-07:002014-07-12T18:40:06.710-07:00Well, library books are free, so this seems like a...Well, library books are free, so this seems like a reasonable idea.Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-87610285401125864962014-07-12T08:58:40.975-07:002014-07-12T08:58:40.975-07:00Oops.

C&V is now #3 on the Amazon bestsellers list for ebooks, Historical/Women's fiction. (Except I can't find the list!) This has also brought the paperback up to #39. So I give away some ebooks, which don't cost me a thing, and the paperback sales go up, which is great. It's like using the ebook as a handout to increase sales.Petrea Burchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043950465171821852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-76347434101009728622014-07-11T23:30:54.855-07:002014-07-11T23:30:54.855-07:00Not sure whether to be happy about this or not.

I picked up a book mark...(I've already bought several copies of C&V)...when I got to the desk the cashier commented about C&V and asked if I was interested. I told her not only had I already read it, but that I had bought several copies as well...(oh...yeah...I did let it slip that I knew Petrea!!!) I asked her if she had read it...she declined but said that she had been thinking about it. Of course I extolled its virtues...and pointed out that it is a delightful read and that she really should read it...She agreed!!!<br />TheChieftesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153059825142977202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-17053408236119487142014-07-11T09:00:46.588-07:002014-07-11T09:00:46.588-07:00Thanks for pointing it out...
