It's really harder to tell the truth in a he said-she said situation than to just allow the mind to float on invention and free idea. The natural excitement should soon overcome the reticence though and I wish you all the luck in the world at ploughing in successfully.Once started it should get easier.<br />I asked similar questions about spikes in sales followed by slumps. My slump seems to have moved full time to the doldrums permanently which could reflect on genre, writing skills (surely not. LOL)or even personality coming through in promotions. The main answer I was given....Seasonal.pre and post Christmas ( October to March) are the heaviest times for selling, after which most sales go to known Authors for birthday gifts. Newer authors are picked up on freebies. This may or may not be true but if true it would account for your drops from March and you should be close to seeing things move with a new sales push and promotion.<br />Lets hope it's true. Best of luck Virginia.David Prosserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04421038270689370362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11761373.post-45967722828272964962012-07-26T19:25:35.119-05:002012-07-26T19:25:35.119-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Jonathan Wilhoithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17330197977238770900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11761373.post-85733999392654426402012-07-26T15:48:47.269-05:002012-07-26T15:48:47.269-05:00I think you'd be fascinated by Elizabeth Craig...I think you'd be fascinated by Elizabeth Craig's post yesterday about her sales, and non-sales.
