I suspect the people who wanted it have mostly gotten it. But, so far it's 115 in the US, so it's better than nothing.<br /><br />Are there children's sites you can advertise this on, Marilyn?Kaye Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596677617002735674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999752843311959295.post-69290787391031239042012-03-10T13:45:27.707-06:002012-03-10T13:45:27.707-06:00I've put RUFUS AND MAGIC RUN AMOK, one my upda...I've put RUFUS AND MAGIC RUN AMOK, one my updated back-in-print kids books I'd put up on Kindle in the Select program. My goal is to get that book out to young readers, and I've sold a few hundred copies via the Program and many less via regular sales. However, today is the 5th free day (I've done it over a period of 3 weeks) and see only 19 sales so far today.Marilyn Levinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424778692932139865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999752843311959295.post-11124282092776906492012-03-08T09:12:45.682-06:002012-03-08T09:12:45.682-06:00Thanks for your comments, E.B.

The price is controlled by whoever puts the book on Kindle. <br /><br />You could contact the author so she could beg the publisher to lower the price, but some publishers just don't understand ebook pricing!<br /><br />If this is a self-published author, or one whose publisher didn't do the ebook, maybe the author could lower her prices.<br /><br />Thanks for the good wishes, and you're welcome for the info sharing.Kaye Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596677617002735674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5999752843311959295.post-30306797686422161282012-03-08T05:34:00.945-06:002012-03-08T05:34:00.945-06:00Wise choice putting the anthologies on the program...Wise choice putting the anthologies on the program. That way it will entice readers to buy Choke. The nomination for the Agatha is an interaction effect that will complicate your experiment, but all to the good I suspect. :)<br /><br />I'm a new Kindle user and I've found that when I haven't read an author, the price point of $2.99 somehow makes my decision to try their book easier. <br /><br />If I try and like the first book, I'll buy others at $4.99, but when an author prices their books beyond that point (for the Kindle version) it makes me a little mad. Perhaps because I still place value on being able to hold the book in my hand.<br /><br />One of my favorite authors prices her kindles at $7.99. I wait for hers to hit the library shelves. I wonder if she knows that because when the book is on my screen and priced right, it's so easy to hit that download button. <br /><br />Good luck, Kaye. I appreciate that you are sharing your data with us.E. B.
