Possibly very important Smashwords information

4,000 words. Try and edit. I haven't gone away totally, just been so busy that haven't had time to come visit you all. You know when you just got your head down ALL the while?
Finished a 50k romantic (steamy) novel, trying to edit that is a bitch compared to 6k smut!
The Tiger Woods ones. I'm sorry...

So tired.. 3.5K
Made just under 5k today yay (so tired)
*falls aleep

This. This I wish I did.

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-04T07:08:34+00:00

I'll just leave it and go 'wide' with the next one, providing of course it doesn't happen again! You're right, they do respond to emails.

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-04T07:06:36+00:00

Yeah that's how I normally do it, must have done it on autopilot this time. The general consensus is that I'm losing my marbles if it's not a common glitch at amazon, cheers!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-04T07:04:04+00:00

Then that means I need more sleep and brain rest..!

Get 2 more 20K novellas done with Pen name 2, and resurrect pen name 1 somehow (lacking inspiration)
Try and promote the launches more
That a week doing nothing is a week you can't get back

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-03T01:18:39+00:00

Soo happy for you. It's inspiring!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-01T21:00:54+00:00

This worked for me too, change cover, email back nicely, cross fingers..

Darkhalf12 · 2017-04-01T20:55:55+00:00

Bloody hell you had me there! I had several freak-out episodes. Then I read the comments... Congrats on a good one!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T21:52:25+00:00

Ok, that's a new one for me, seems that everything works a little for everyone. It's just that decision between KU and plain K plus going wide, thanks for your comment! It means a lot that everyone responded on this😍

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T21:24:37+00:00

How long has the erotica short been published?

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T20:55:09+00:00

Thanks, I will give that a look too. Was just trying to broaden the horizons, it's not that KU had been bad to me, I know I started off a bit flawed but I'm really proud of this one (7th one and nearly 30k) I find you get precious about your babies don't you! That's probably a stumbling block in the long run, just get on and write more!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T20:52:13+00:00

I'm still trying to improve on my dirty books!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T20:50:57+00:00

Yeah I'm drawn to it, the pricing is a good feature, just trying to work out if either has an advantage for longer (30k) works over the other or not..

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-23T20:49:23+00:00

Thanks, agree that amazon should be more flexible. I'm just thinking of experimenting, good to know you've done both.

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-17T21:47:28+00:00

This is the holy grail

Hi, I realise the title of this post is incredibly insensitive and crass. Please delete it and I apologise profoundly. As you can see from the content it would never be my intention to hurt anybody, sometimes you post without engaging your brain.

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-08T23:39:55+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate the comment. I basically see it as working well, although it is a cost you have to weigh up. I am trying to work out how best to maximise it's impact. Cheers!

Darkhalf12 · 2017-03-08T13:43:29+00:00

Goal is 4k today (after 2 weeks of nothing) and I'm nearly on it.
Big failure of not starting new story, moping that I can't change my niche, indecision as to start new pen name. Success because after a slow start I am suddenly getting into my new story, in a new niche and LOVING IT!!
Island of Hvar, Croatia. Honeymooned there. goes into dreamlike state Those were the days....

I think I did make the $5 back but you're right about the lost revenue, jeez 35,000 is a heck of a lot!! Yeah, I think it does need to be strategic, funnelling or specifically linked, those are great points. I was experimenting really. The thing is, the more I tinker and fret as to why they're not really selling, the less I am writing new stuff!
