    I find your clarity of explaining things absolutely astounding. You get right to the point with exactly what I need to know to promote my book(s). I love your humor too. You make it fun! Thank you for putting this course together.

      Thank you for your kind words, Michael! I’m blushing! πŸ™‚
      It was you guys who made it so easy to put together – for the last year I’ve been asking fellow authors what they’re biggest struggles were and this course is one big answer to all these questions.
      I’m so happy you’re enjoying it πŸ™‚
      I’m looking forward to reading more of your thoughts in the comments, Michael!

        Thank you, Alinka. I’ll add more comments as I work through the lessons. I’m at lesson 2 now. I have 3 jobs plus my writing so it takes me a while.

    Let me add… my first novel — a legend in a 6 book series — was published in Feb. Now I’m working on a short fairy tale for the PermaFree book, and I have a sequence of 26 fables that will be offered via blog, and two free along with 2 free chapters as the Reader magnet. I really need the autopilot approach and you are helping me do it.

    Love the course and the way you explain things. I have been doing some of this for a few years, but you’ve given me some new insights and ideas! Thank you.

    One question: how do you set your book for free, and what distributors will allow you to? Looks like Amazon will not, though they say they will β€œprice match” β€” yet that is not always true for a free book. Do you use other distributors? Or an aggregator?

    Thanks!

      Thank you so much, Mark!

      You need to first make your book free on iBook and B&N and then send those links to Amazon via KDP support and ask them to kindly price match πŸ™‚
