Last weekend saw my two final events of the year and they ended the season on a high. The weekend didn’t break any records but I was very pleased with the results.

I now have loads of ideas for changed I want to make for next year, including new and improved author business cards, which I have already designed, plus SHATTERED DESTINY will be ready for sale, and I’ll have more dyslexia friendly books, so space will be a real premium on the table.

In the downtime I will need to order more stock and prepare the short story bundles again as I’m almost out.

Here’s a look at my latest design for the business cards which are aimed to drive after event sales.

WORK IN PROGRESS

I received the completed edit for SHATTERED DESTINY and there was no terrible feedback lurking so I’ve already turned around the comments and printed it out so I can plough through my final read. I’m hoping to have it ready for proof reading before the end of the first week in January and so I guess that means it will be out before the end of Jan.

Other than what I might do today on my day off, all other work is now on hold until I get the read through done, then it will be back to the sci-fi time travelling story.

MARKETING & PROMOTION

I’m actually in profit with Amazon advertising! I know, I can’t believe it either. Whatever I’m doing seems to be working. I need to keep doing the same. I’m selling at least a book a day and my page reads are up and so now I need to keep collecting data and then double down so I can improve it. I have to do loads more work on the other titles, but at least I have a nub of something to work with on the zombie books.

That’s about it for this week, just a short one. I expect I’ll catch up next week, but if there’s nothing much to report I might save it for the week after. If I don’t post before, I hope you all have a great Christmas!
