The invisible Plane

I have been on holiday in Malaysia for the last week. I believe in doing work which you enjoy and I enjoy writing e-books. This week alone I published two e- books and got a review as well as been added by another author. It is not that I am bragging about it Instead what I am saying from this experience are three things
1. Use your time effiecentlymake it productively. What do I mean any minute you have use it to proof read and inspire. I got inspiration to write this part of my blog from the airport when my flight was delayed. The title above in the blog should be enough to inspire a book. The title is there. All I need to do is write and tidy up about my experience today at the airport. The idea behind it as I type and look out the window is the plane is delayed and there is no plane. However in thr figment of the mind the plane is there as we prepare to board only to cancel.
Point two on my list is don't give up despite how you feel. You may fel that things are not piecing together for you. But as you keep going small things can help to keep you going in your writing. Such as a simple review, it was only one review, but I was thrilled. It reminded me when I sold my first e book I thought it would never happen, but I did and you need to have continuing self belief.
Number 3 use your surroundings to give your inspiration let the books you read inspire you to develop and to write. I just started another children story nad I don't know where it will take me. The reason it got started was I was having coffee and the surroundings gave me inspiration and the past books I read as a child helped.

Audiobooks

Dear Reader I am in the process of trying audibook to try to promote my books . There are free sites which allow to upload your audio book. I am going to try to upload one of my books and see what happen. I have read the script of my Abu the Desert Fox and Fudge: A Dogs life.  It is a simple recording with no sound effects and only uses a Dictaphone. There are two websites which I am planning to use. One was recommended by Smashwords.com, which is free to use and the other is CDbaby, but you have to pay to use that one.
I plan to use the free Audiobook site, I have already started the profile and will link it to my E-book profile.

On another subject, I got my first review and a fellow author liked my Abu e-book. I  am planning to add other writers and try to get more reviews for my books.

Stepping up the PR of your book

Promoting your book is the most important aspect of selling it. I have have used a simple website to publish my e-books and I follow their formatting procedure. What makes this website good are the  distribution channels which allows your book to be sold on Apple, Barnes and Noble, Sony and their own website. Since I started over a year ago I had 300 click on my books and sold books.

 Meaning that if you create a book then it can be sold. I am now at a stage to try to promotoe my books. I have one book in particular I want to promote and now I am going to try to take promotion to a higher level. I will let you know how it goes and what I am doing. Follow this post.

Back to writing

Its been a while since I blogged. I had been busy getting back into teaching and settling in. In addition I had been following the rollercoaster markets.
I am not going to write today about the markets or about gold. I am writing to let you know that I am back to writing my e books. Its been. A few months since I last wrote and the same could happen to you.
Today inspiration came to me in the most unusual place the classroom. As I was supervising my year 11. I saw a notepad and I felt the urge to write. I wrote three small stories in space of an hour and now I started a more serious book.
Inspiration can happen anywhere and at anytime. What I discovered today that I need to carry a small notepad around in case the muses shone down on me like today. My advise to you is to be patient about an e book and carry a notepad around so are ready for a visit by the muses at anytime. I will more this week as my e book takes shape. Remember inspiration can come in many shapes and disguises, just be prepared for it. It will only visit for a short while.
