Kindle Books And TipsTo all of my author friends out there, Kindle Books and Tips is a great place to advertise your free or discounted eBook promotions on Amazon. I guarantee you’ll end up selling hundreds of eBooks (if not thousands) during your event. Give it a try; it only costs $25 for a standard sponsorship. The website is run by a guy named Michael Gallagher, who’s dedicated to helping out indie authors like ourselves. Click here to get started, and tell him Sebastian Cole sent you!

Word of mouth is the key, and people are starting to take notice…

The Gift We Give to Others

Posted on October 07, 2013

“I wasn’t perfect, and I made mistakes, but I learned from them and became a better person for it. I always followed my heart. And most of all, I loved — with every ounce of my being. I guess you could say the greatest love story ever written isn’t confined to the pages of a book. It’s in our lives; and we’re the ones who write it. So that’s what life’s all about, isn’t it? Why we’re here. It has nothing to do with dollars. In fact, it’s totally free. Life’s greatest gift. And the best part is, the best part, this gift we give to others… we get it back. It’s what makes the journey so worthwhile… it’s LOVE.”

Having released my debut novel, Sand Dollar: A Story of Undying Love, it’s cool to see that I now have an Amazon Author Rank: #73 in Books / Romance / Fantasy. Apparently, Amazon combines all of your books and ranks you as an author. I seem to be the only one on the page with just one book…
