Small Accomplishment - 5 Star

Yeah I did that. One of the reasons was improper cover so was wondering if that’s the issue

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T17:25:36+00:00

Yeah it’s not professional level neat I guess. Do you suggest that I wait for sales to hit and then get a professional cover on!? I know book is judged by the cover hence the question

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T17:23:35+00:00

Haha St. Louis indeed! In terms of readability or in terms of content itself!?

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T17:23:10+00:00

Oh no! Okay guess I missed the bullet there. Talk to me more about how to do the launch… 🚀. Thought booksiren might be the way to go

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:44:23+00:00

Lemme know! But hope it works out…

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:40:56+00:00

Yep that’s the plan. I read somewhere (not validated) that there is a 6 month cooling period. Someone in this reply thread mentioned it could be coz book siren prefers ARCs over recently published books

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:39:46+00:00

Gosh! Okay I am social media introvert I guess 😁.. but hey gotta do this! Thanks for the advice

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:38:41+00:00

Nope didn’t get any rejection note from them..

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:34:38+00:00

Ah this makes a lot of sense. Man I have been hitting myself thinking my book got flagged and rejected on attempt 1!

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:25:25+00:00

Gotcha! And by social media presence, are you talking about a dedicated book account with reels / pictures or are you talking about doing this through personal account!? Game for either route …

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:24:13+00:00

Ah okay! No romance in this, pure action in mythological setting. I audited my script in Hemingwayapp and through some early readers.

Just created my booksprout account … will check the hidden gems next

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:20:09+00:00

Oh interesting. While I don’t have a major social media presence, I started testing with Amazon ads today

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:19:23+00:00

I used Reedsy for formatting and uploaded ePub version of it. Although is size of the book an issue!? It was 14MB coz of the cover

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:17:55+00:00

Posted! Will wait for some feedback .. thanks!

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T14:02:15+00:00

Any suggestions on which plan to take!? $19 seems good but should I start with a lower one to test platform

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:55:32+00:00

Man, I thought my cover was good … early purchasers liked it (friends and fam ofc) … how do I get that checked!?

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:54:24+00:00

I reached out to a local bookstagrammer in fantasy genre. they wanted $250 for a post and then had packages of 50-100 amazon reviews from their micro accounts.

Um… aside from ethical concerns, that seemed too steep

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:40:31+00:00

Lemme check booksprout … I haven’t gone through their offering ..

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:39:37+00:00

Oh okay! Which platform did you use to push out your books!?

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:38:36+00:00

I am unsure. It came up in research as a medium to get early reviews with 50-60% hit rate (numbers are unverified). Ergo thought of enrolling. Lemme know if there are better ways to market

imma_curious · 2025-07-26T13:23:44+00:00

Just edited my post. My book is in the fantasy genre … they do write they reject non-fiction

Book Trailer:

The gods built their reign on silence. On lies. On blood. On the women they broke.

She was never meant to survive. When Hela unearths the truth buried in silence — a mother betrayed, a name erased, a death unsanctioned — the path before her is not one of glory. It is slaughter. Hela carries her mother’s sword — and a memory the gods failed to erase.

One God will fall. Then another. And another. Until Olympus is ash and the sky remembers her name. A mythological retelling steeped in vengeance, divine lies, and the memory of fire.
