Hi Everyone,

After spending many hours putting an old book together, I discovered that when I was about to submit it to Amazon that I had already published it in May 2014. OOOOPS!

Then I received a promo from IBPA which is a site for publishers and they had a $25 off promo for a year's membership and I have been wanting to get back on there, but first I wanted to make sure one of the main incentives was still available.

Before you could get a monthly promo from Lightning Source, Inc to have 2 titles published for free rather than paying around $100 to have the title setup.

Now they offer 5 free titles a month so I jumped right on it.

I then decided to reprint the title I just completed on Lightning Source (LS) and I can then compare the sales between Amazon and LS on this title. Will be interesting to track and my time wasn't wasted putting the book together so that will be book title #1,214.

A rainy day here again, but we won't be going out. I'm going to try and get more work done and I have to prepare for Melissa Jeane's Homeschooling which I will start this week yet.

I hope you are having a productive week!

Happy Hump Day!

To Our Success!
