Marketing Your E-Book


www.amazon.com/dp/B00FE81V3S  E-Book

Writing is easy.  Marketing is hard. Marketing is time consuming.

I am writing and publishing a short story every month.  Some months I publish two a month.  If I am not writing I am marketing.  I am on face book.  I am on twitter.  I blog. 

That may sound simple, but it zaps my writing time.

If you have a spouse or friend that could help you with the social media, you will be ahead of the game.  I do not have that.  I am totally on my own. 

I have a full time job.  I get up early to write or promote my books.  I do what I can do.

There is no secret formula on how to market your book.  If there was, then we all would be doing the same thing.

Be willing to take risks, but watch your money.  Don't go into debt by advertising.  Like publishing your book, it doesn't have to cost you anything.  Like marketing, don't pay anyone to help you, unless you are sure and can afford it.  There is always someone out there to take your money.

The best advice is to get the next book or short story out.  If you are writing a novel, can you write and publish a short story to keep your name out there???

I am selling books every month.  I am recieving royality checks from amazon.  If I can do this so can you.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Get that Book Published

USA UK Denmark Asia FREE On Kindle Unlimited Write no matter what anyone says.  We all have a story to tell.  If you are a writer, your friends and family might get why you write.  I know that my family does not get me at all.  They just roll their eyes and ignore the fact that I am now a self-published writer.  They don't care.  So I don't talk about my writing to them.  Why waste my time. Instead, I write.  I might not write 2,000 words everyday.  What I do everyday is, I write.  I write and it might only be 100 words, but I wrote something. I blog and I consider that writing.  I have people come to my blog everyday.  People are reading what I write, like you are reading what I have written, therefore I am a writer.   I know that it is lonely sometimes and you wonder why bother.  I write to live.  I can not write. You can be a self-published writer in less than a mont...
