My debut book or how i resisted kindle for so long.
Vanity publishing has never been my thing. I've always been of the opinion that its the relationship equivalent of hiring a hooker instead of finding someone who loves you.
I.E - I won't pay for it. I want to be wanted.
For years i lumped kindle in with vanity publishing but my agent persuaded me otherwise.
He got me to see that in recent years electronic publishing (Amazon kindle)has become a respectable and viable way of promoting a book.
My novel FOREVER TORN has had great feedback from publishers but i've never been able to place it due to its niche status, so when my agent suggested we launch on kindle and he call his contacts to get them to keep an eye on the rankings, i had the examples of Amanda Hocking and E L James in mind.
So my agent called his publishing contacts and they said if i charted high enough, a print deal could well be in the offing.
So far i'm off to a good start and have eight 5 star reviews across Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and 100% positive and great feedback.
