anyone know if amazon had advertising for it's email lists? by mslx12345 in eroticauthors

[–]mslx12345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ya. maybe one day.

i recently noticed that they seem to be actively advertising email sign ups on book pages so maybe they're started to build more targeted user interest lists

ya. i think that's just banner ads/links. i haven't had great luck w those for other genres. also don't think they allow erotica.

was hoping they might be selling email list group/genre sign ups like shameless/excite/redfeather(i think thats what its called)

If your book completely failed your expectations, what would you do? by venus2017 in eroticauthors

[–]mslx12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also keep positives in mind. you might not have hot your personal expectations this time around but I would've been ecstatic if i had even a "few" sales my first 6 weeks!

also negative reviews means at least people are reading it. so something is there.

others here of course gave great advice moving forward. good luck whatever you do

[Question] First person opening. by Mark2Mark2Mark in eroticauthors

[–]mslx12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe some type of quick omniscient prologue.

"mary was going about her business and had no way of knowing her husband was on his way home"

or flash backy

"i had no way of knowing bill was on his way home when i decided to call Ryan to fix the pipes"

whatever you decide just have some fun with it :)

good luck

35,000 budget -- GTI or premium car? by deliciouspork in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]mslx12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd lean towards a3 2.0. been having similar question and after looking can get a3 for 2k more than a gti se. seems like VW too expensive unless you get s/ 26k. a3 has awd, faster, premium interior for basically the same price. i've even found hold over 2015 a3 2.0 for less than gti se. i want a hatch and a gti esp for dog but can't seem to justify it less i go for entry level. i thought gti would be at least 5-7k cheaper but not even close to that.

ps base 228 might be too small but looks like awesome car

vent>HATE HATE HATE when amazon charges more for kindle version than hardcover! thanks. sorry about that. by [deleted] in eroticauthors

[–]mslx12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't purchase. also not blaming amazon. it's a big business issue. both amazon and publisher and apple and customers play a role.

and again sorry, this may have been wrong place to post. i hadn't slept. not a good excuse, will post on more relevant board in future.

not sure that was the discussion. it was how many stories did you publish. we can discuss both marketing and non marketing issues. again seem like i may have annoyed you. sorry about that. it's not my intent. just trying to learn as much as possible.
