The View from Middle Spunk Creek
More Than You Could Hope to Ask For
“Do you want to run a campaign to try and become an Amazon best seller?” she asked.
“Sure. Why not?” I replied.
I had no idea what I was getting into.
Guided by my publicist, Tiffany Harelik, and with Alexcis Lopez working behind the scenes, the “campaign” was set for May 7. They would orchestrate a ninety-nine cent ebook sale of The Reaper on Amazon that day to see if we could sell enough books to achieve best seller status.
Here’s the result:
I’m still having a hard time believing it. To my wife, Kathy, my daughter, Ashley, and son-in-law Wes who worked diligently to promote the sale; to Barb Zielinski and Scott Schwantes for spreading the word to their groups on Facebook; to the two ladies previously mentioned who made it happen, and to the hundreds of people who bought a book on Tuesday and sent well-wishes: THANK YOU.
So what’s next?
We can always dream!
