The Time Capsule

——————————————————————————- Pay Once—Read Forever. Check out  All My Fiction  for more details!

A lot has happened recently on my eBook publishing front. Maybe I should say not a lot has happened. I planned to release the sixth and final story in Book 1 of Miscorrection  on July 3rd. After I sent it off to Jeff Ambrose , an indie author who agreed to help me proofread and edit the last three stories, he suggested I hold off on the release. He felt the story needed more polish and a change in perspective. Of course, this was only his opinion, but before I sent it to him, I thought the same thing about it. While I really  liked the story, I was afraid it might be somewhat bland and even confusing. Right now, I'm not sure when the next one will release, but I know this change will be for the better. Good news though, as I plan to release another 7,000 word short story this week called Josie Dorri And The Coffee Ban . I had a lot of fun writing it. You can look for an excerpt to go live within 48 hours of this post. I also have planned to write two other short stories during the

I have a really bad habit. Every day, I have to check my eBook sales numbers. In fact, sometimes I get downright compulsive about it. A lot of Indie Authors have this issue, because even when the number jumps by one sale, we get excited. Frankly, checking the sales number is a waste of time. At least at the frequency that I check them. So, I've decided to only check my numbers the first of each month, starting now. The only exception to this will be when I check my sales on Barnes & Noble because I extended Taco Week for the release of Awry  and B&N got it up four days late. Once I check my sales numbers, I will post them around the beginning of each month. Don't expect huge numbers though. Currently, my sell through is very low. But I hope that changes as time passes.

Just wanted to drop a quick note that a guest post I write for soveryclever.com is up on their blog. Here's the direct link:  http://lidestrigriffin.com/2011/06/guest-post-by-bc-young-encouraging-words-for-writers/ Enjoy!        

Good news on the Taco Challenge. Awry sales have jumped from 1 to 4. Things are starting to get very interesting. I'll tell you this, 4 tacos is still not much of a challenge. Also, Barnes & Noble finally has Awry available for purchase. Since the availability on the store is late to Taco Week, I'm extending the challenge for the B&N store. Purchases made by June 13, 2001 at 11:59 P.M. qualify for the Taco Challenge. Keep the tacos coming everyone!

The numbers are in for the first Taco Update. After the first official day of release, Awry has sold 1 copy. That's good news, because broadcasting the Taco Challenge live would be very boring if there I had no tacos to eat! On the down side of all of this, Barnes & Noble still doesn't have Awry available. Since this is the case, I'm going to extend Taco Week for Barnes & Noble purchases. The week will begin as soon as they have the ebook available. Look for another Taco Update tomorrow. Who knows, maybe your purchase will push the taco count up to 2. Awry (Miscorrection) is available for 1 Taco for your favorite e-reader at any of the links below!
