Free: No Fishing In Here

Hi all,
I mentioned in my last post that I was hoping to make my book "Bossy Boots" permanently free on Amazon. I was under the impression that to do this I simply made the book free on Barnes and Noble, Amazon would oblige by price matching it if somebody e-mailed them to say that they'd seen a lower price. Well, I did all that and even got other people to report the lower price but nothing happened, so it was all a complete failure.

However, it did push me into reviewing who and where I was distributing my books with. I use Amazon for everything and have a selection of other books with Smashwords, D2D or both. Anyway, the upshot is that I have pulled some of my books, including Bossy Boots, out of Smashwords and D2D and have enrolled them in Amazon's "select" program, which will allow me to offer them for free for 5 days in every three month period.

To get the ball rolling, my collection of short stories will be available for a free down load for three days this week-end.


Some of the stories are sad while others are funny but they all involve emotions, including anger, denial and betrayal. So if you would like a copy, stick the dates in your diary and download a free copy sometime from the 17th to the 19th of April. I hope you enjoy its.
