The last time I put up free Book Promotions something odd happened. Bugtown was downloaded over forty times, I think. Usually, I'm expecting each of the eleven books on Kindle to be downloaded a couple of times. So why so many? Maybe for a class of eleven year olds, I hope. I have a lot of confidence in Bugtown. After a year of trying to find an agent for it, I think I got one agent to read three chapters. But kids loved it. The Land of the Demon Masters was written just to see, but I tried to write a kidsbook with Bugtown.
Last week I sold two copies of The Buddha and the Big Bad Wolf. Most surprised. It's rare to sell anything these days (well, I don't want to read them either), but that's 70p to me. Who said there was no money in books.
I worked in the allotment today from about half two till have five. Normally, I do an hour at most, but I'm late this year. I'm starting to feel really positive these days. This is the same as feeling really negative, but with different chemicals. Better, of course.
