I am a survivor. I’ve finally survived an attempt at Amazon’s Giveaway program. I attempted three adventures into the supposedly simple technological forest of instructions.
Yes, third time’s a charm and all that rot. If it wasn’t for my very talented critter-friend’s advice and guidance, the 3rd time maxim would be null and certainly void.
The first venture fortunately ended with no dents in my Amazon credit card or very small money bag. I’m not sure what went wrong. I must have clicked a “No” button for “Do you want to act intelligent?”
The second time I did manage to give away five copies to five entries, but not one of them is a new Twitter Tweeter: the objective of a savvy author.
Finally, on the third expedition I did manage to give away five books to every one hundred people IF they agreed to follow me down that green bricked author road on Twitter. I gained 481 tweeters! Now, If each one would buy a book…
Enough!
