I've punched through the 40,000-word mark on the third Wheel of Fire book. I'm still only on page 5 of the outline, though. I'm starting to wonder just how long this book's going to be. Oh, well... I doubt the readers will complain about getting a little more for their money. I intend to price it at $3.99, just like the others.
I ran a couple of promotions this weekend on Kobo. One was to put Clouds of Venus on their "free" page. The other was a 40% off deal for VIP members for Mind Games. I gained one free download of CoV and one sale of MG. So Kobo remains a sort of dead zone for me. :( I really wish I knew how to get traction there. Maybe some day I'll figure it out.
Today was a warm day, and the flower buds on the dogwoods have already cracked open. Spring will be here soon. That makes me happy. :D Perhaps my feet can finally thaw out after being frozen all winter.
I've got taxes to deal with soon, so I'll be a little distracted, but I'm hoping to finish the first draft of this book before April 15. That's my new sort-of-a-deadline. Wish me luck.
UPDATE: Okay, the promo I ran on Kobo for Clouds of Venus actually resulted in 123 free downloads. Apparently those stats only update once a week or so. The stats for paid sales, on the other hand, update daily, or maybe even in something approaching real time.
