That sure puts a kink of getting it publicized!
But, they told me they will be going up on Indigo Kobo. So, I checked out the Kobo website [no reference to Indigo that I could find} and was impressed with their selection of titles. The problem, of course, is that it doesn't have to same name-recognition of Kindle or Amazon.
So, how does one publicize a book with hands behind one's back?
I've looked at Google's AdWord and that just might be a solution.
Ah well. I thought writing and being a published author wouldn't be all that hard. Now I'm learning that it takes a whole lot more to be successful.
One good thing I learned is that Sonora Symphony is in digital format and can be downloaded to any e-reader, laptop or desktop.
Humm, that seems kinda weird. They would have known before signing you, that they would not be on Amazon and seems a little underhanded not to tell you upfront.
ReplyDeleteAlso Canada can sell through Amazon so I don't know what your publisher is thinking.

It's like saying we're going to sell tabloid magazines, but not at grocery store checkout stands.
Well now, here;s something I got from my publisher - she said THEY ARE on Amazon.com!!!
ReplyDeleteSo I sent her back a message asking why Sonora Symphony is there!
We'll see what she answers to that.
