I don't know that it will help my sales but, frankly, I don't care.  Great way for me to support Kindleboards, which has become like a second home.  Done and done!

Oooo having your day on Halloween would be epic! But you're probably better off because there'll be fewer people partying that night!

Many thanks Harvey for providing yet another feature that's so useful.

Just signed up The Jade Owl. Gee, with 16 books out, I could go broke.  Grin  But it's a generous offer and a bargain to boot. I watch for my email.

I can see soon that we might need to either interleave books or have multiple on the banner just so we don't end up with 2 year waiting lists? Smiley

I know!! When first considering how we would offer this promotion, I had thought momentarily about rotating in multiple books, but in the end decided it was better value if the Book of the Day is always there, all the time, all day.

So far we're only into mid-November with the orders. Smiley

Oh, I'm sure as it becomes better known you'll get that waiting list extended out further, until a certain point where people decide it's too long (an interesting experiment to see how far that'll be).

Wonder if people would be willing to opt in for a 1/2 or 1/3 banner option with other authors on the same day?  Beyond 3 wouldn't work too well I'd imagine.

Still, another great idea - well done.

Paul.

I sent mine in earlier. If I had read the rest of the boards, I would have seen I could've requested a date... oh well  Cheesy The date doesn't actually matter to me, as long as its near enough in the future that I'll remember I actually signed up! ha ha

Actually received an e-mail while writing this... October 24th and 25th my novel will be featured. Awesome! Harvey, I do have a thread for The Usurper on the Book Bazaar, so that would be cool if it were stickied.  Thanks for the opportunity too!

Thanks, Cliff - got your Book Bazaar thread noted so we'll ensure it's stickied on the days when your book is featured.

Okay, I didn't see a place to link to my Book Bazaar thread.  Did I miss something?  'Cause that would be like me to miss what everyone else sees.


EDIT: a few minutes later the e-mail arrives asking about it.  Figures.
