How you doing?

Slowly but surely copies get sold. How you doing on marketing? What's your target audience?  Mine is basically men. That held very true when I was called to be the speaker atca men's retreat.  The books sold well there.  Didn't do so hot in a ladies books and geegaws store.

Target target target is the message.

Now go write for your target audience.

Anybody interested in an on line writer's group????

Author

It is official. I am now an author. Amazon says so.  Http://www.amazon.com/author/dougball is on the air.

All three if my current books are listed in kindle format and one in print.  The other two will be listed in print as soon as tomorrow.

It is a great thrill to see your name in lights. Now the idea is to sell a few and get some reviews.  Obviously I would love for you to buy my books and give me great five star reviews,  but I would rather you read them and gave me honest reviews so I can grow in my writing. 

Stay tuned as I share the tips I learn for marketing.  I live in a very rural area and do not have the normal avenues available to me with out hundreds of miles of travel. So, from scratch we go. 

The first tip is www.createspace.com.  That was my starting point.
