What forms of advertising have others found effective for books?

My profit per book (Kindle and paperback) is about £1, so I don't want any click-based advertising where clicks cost more than 10p.

I'd be interested to read other people's opinions on this.]]>

Its near to impossible to use kindle web-browser to use google reader.
Calibre sent old items again and again. A lot of web-services do not allow to use
auto-deliver for free.

So, I've decided to make own web-service to sync my google reader with kindle.
I'm trying to make really usable RSS to kindle auto-delivery app.

Now I can get all your fresh RSS feeds from google reader account and sent it to your kindle. It can be sent at defined time on when there are more than 50 feeds collected.

So, I need a few testers to make the service better before opening.
Try to use it at http://motloh.kriachko.com, feef free to write to me at motloh.rss@gmail.com.

P.S. I'm open to discuss - you can influence to list of features.

My name's Tim Stevens. I've just published my debut novel, an espionage thriller titled Ratcatcher, for the Kindle. Set in the Baltic city of Tallinn, it concerns the hunt for a renegade British agent on the eve of a crucial summit meeting between the Russian and Estonian presidents.



One four-star review so far - looking forward to more (or even better ones...)

I've read books nightly ever since getting my first Kindle I've every single day pretty much, but the last week or so I haven't been able to keep my concentration on anything I'm reading. This isn't Kindle-centric - I used to have the same problem with tree books. Kind of like reading fatigue. If I take a break and don't read at night for a week or so, it will probably go away.]]>

http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Gift-Snow-eb...729&sr=1-1

The blurb is:

When Andi moves into her new house, she knows from the outset that it's different. One autumn night, she discovers how different it is when she wakes to find that her past, and the woman she left behind so long ago, aren't quite so far away after all. Will she succumb to her own fear of the unknown or will an old love be strong enough to protect her?


As it's a literary story, there's no erotic content. Happy reading!

Finding the route through Agents and Publishers frustrating to say the least I decided to published a first book of a series on Kindle for ages 7-14.
I endeavour to write in such a way that allows the young reader to relate to the characters. Of course the big test is moving one's work up the Kindle ladder!
Maybe it is beneficial to publish more than just one book?
What is your experience Forum guys?

Here's the blurb:
Thirteen-year-old Alice Parker knows something isn't right; mysterious aches and pains, a craving for sugar that’s out of control. Suddenly she is top of the class in every subject.
Baffled by what is happening to her and feeling at odds with the world, Alice can't take much more. Only when she collapses and experiences a life-changing transformation does she discover why she is different.
But this new, incredible identity brings its own challenges and Alice isn't convinced she can rise to them. She just wants to be normal!
The fact is, she's anything but...

Enjoy!]]>
