Hi guys,
As most of you know, a while ago I did a survey called The Reader Behavior Survey. You can find the results of that survey here on KP.
Well, I got inspired to do another one. The idea with this survey is to let readers tell us what they want to see in the novels they read. I have 13 questions so far, but I’d like to come up with some…[Read more]

@warrioroftherealm Two or three. The second title does sound darker than the third. It depends what angle you are going for.

@daeus love the ‘When fate seeks to destroy you, where can you turn?’ hook. Much better than the others. 😉

@emma-flournoy Here’s another option.
When your fate overwhelms you, where can you turn?

Daeus replied to the topic Possible Book Title in the forum Fantasy 7 years, 3 months ago
@warrioroftherealm I think it sounds fine, though it is a tiny bit rough. Fyi, I think the first two sound like high-action novels with warrior monks and lots of gut punching. The third one sounds more like a high fantasy to me. Something a little quieter, but that has really good world building. Like I said before though, the cover will affect…[Read more]

@warrioroftherealm One or three. I probably like three better, but I think it largely depends on what cover design you go with.

@emma-flournoy @kate-flournoy @his-instrument What about this?

@emma-flournoy Sold? Not very many. When it was free though, I got something like 2,000 downloads. I haven’t been promoting it really. That’s why I’m trying to revive this ad thing. I actually have time for it almost. 😉

@kate-flournoy @emma-flournoy Got it. I’ll try to come up with something better tomorrow.

@his-instrument I think attracting classical lovers is worth losing non classical lovers.

Daeus replied to the topic A New Synopsis For Edwin Brook in the forum Publishing & Platform 7 years, 3 months ago
@his-instrument Thank. Those are great suggestions.
I do, though, need to have that one liner right at the beginning. The idea is that people have a three-second attention span. They won’t read the whole synopsis unless their attention is instantly piqued. Let me see if I can make the wording work.
A story of action, adventure, and justice,…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy Yes, that’s certainly possible. When I read the new first line along with my old synopsis however, it didn’t seem to flow well. Perhaps that’s just me though. The reason I redid the general synopsis was because I wanted the first line of that paragraph to fit with the first line above it. Things kept changing from there.

Hi KeePers,
Many of you have read my novel Edwin Brook. Well, long story short, I was experimenting with running Amazon ads on the book and they were not converting. After a consultation call, I determined that I needed to change my synopsis a bit to make it clearer right from the start who the book was for. I came up with something I think will…[Read more]
