Thoughts on Book Promotion

Self-publishing is an incredible learning curve. It is amazing to hear how many new books are going up onto Amazon.com daily. One figure we read was 5000 new titles daily. That is an incredible number. So is it possible to make sales online?

Why not? It takes learning, hard work, adjusting what one does, improving, networking and more.

As part of improving our strategies, we have just updated the description on the CreateSpace store which will soon be updated onto Amazon.

Reading Matters - BBC series part 4

Do you ever consider the benefits of reading? Some consider the act of reading to be a creative one. Scientists have found that reading stories can assist us to increase our feeling of empathy for others through identifying with the characters in a novel or story.

It seems that reading is more than just a task to improve literacy, there is much more than we can gain through reading.



Have you followed any of the BBC series posted on this blog about reading and how it matters? Have you enjoyed the information shared in the video's?

We'd love to hear your thoughts, please do post your comments in the comment section below.

Have a blessed day

An example of this is explained in the next part of the BBC series on Reading Matters.
