A New Strategy and doughnuts or not

Right now I have some homemade doughnuts rising in a warm oven. At least I hope they rise! If not, I'll still baked them and hope they at least taste decent. Just starting snowing. I'm lowering the price on two of my older novels to .99 cents. This is a permanent reduction pending the amount of sales. I still have the third of the series to complete. I"m also making them available in more stores. I'm working on finding new ways to market and do promotions for Grue Tales.

Hey, you better share some of the donuts with me but only if there are glazed.... By the way, why did you lower your book to such a low price? And is it an e-book or paperback?

Glazed. They are ebooks. Trying to drum up sales on them. The paperbacks are remaining the same price.

@lovebuglena Yeah, but that's what I'm making on them right now-nothing. The last book, Grue Tales is staying at its original price.

@irishidid Great! I want some please. Seems like with that price you make next to nothing per book...

Mostly horror but I do write a bit of fantasy and others. Not your damsel in distress type fantasy with dragons.

@irishidid I don't read much horror but I'm sure they are intriguing.

Oh a book for only 99 cents? That's pretty much giving it away. I hope the doughnuts turn out great! It's supposed to snow tonight anywhere from 4-12 inches so they just cancelled the public school for tomorrow.

They are older books that I'm not making anything off of. I hope to garner some new interest in them as I work on the last book of the series. The doughnuts were "meh". Yeast donuts baked don't work that well but they are edible.

Good luck with donuts and sales. It sounds nice and cozy inside out of the snow.

Good luck with your novels and hope they sell too. As for the doughnuts wishing that they come out just how you want them to be. You are putting them in the shops too your books I mean that would be great idea I think. More reachable in the shops for people to be able to see them.
