Title: Published a Book
Post by: pandorarose3 on April 30, 2018, 09:36:03 PM
Ok, this has taken me a month to get the courage to post this here, as I don't know how many people will even see this post.  But as of 4/1/2018, I am officially a published author.  I self-published a book called Deadly Conflicts By Amy N. Showers.  It is on sale on Amazon.com, and at Barnes & Noble(if you want to pick it up in the store call first as the last time I checked it is not in the stores yet but online but the store will order it for you.

I also created a Patreon account to help as publishing this book has taken more than what I thought it would and any help would be appreciated.  Many of the level's you do get rewards after 3 months of being a Patron.  You can also support other authors, artists, and creators of other content on that site as well.  Even though my book is published I still have to pay for my marketing and the job I was working that covered that bill slowed down work wise so I had to stop paying.  Even the smallest amount will help.

Listed below are the links to the book, as well as to my Patreon account.  Just because the book is published doesn't mean I am getting the money yet.  I don't even know what my first month of sales is yet.  I hope that being a long time member of this great community that people will help if they can if you can't do anything more than buy a book that is just wonderful as well.

Thank you.

Thanks again, guys.  The book isn't doing as well as I had hoped, but that is due to the fact that I am the only one marketing it.  Has anyone of you picked it up??  I am going to be revving up a marketing campaign that hopefully will help and work.  I will also be changing probably from regular blogging on my website to vlogging as long as I can keep someone quiet during recording sessions which I will be posting those to YouTube which I hope will help my chances of selling the book and reaching my audience more.

Also, there is now a book trailer for my book you can view it on YouTube at the following link:
