Just Another Day at the Office - II UPDATE!

Ever since I've published part one, the pressure has really been on to bring out part two within a reasonable timeframe. I'm not a hardened, pro writer who can churn out stories on a schedule, yet!

Actually, the idea of publishing this story in multiple parts seemed like a really brilliant one because I had quite a bit of the story already prepared. And I thought part one and two were practically ready, with part three needing a lot of additions to bring the story to a close. Since then, I've been thinking, and planning, and thinking some more. And lately I've been rewriting part two a bit to make it more fun.

I truly believe in the philosophy to write what I enjoy personally, so I know at least if I have a doppelganger out there somewhere, they'll like it too. Well, after receiving positive feedback and urging messages to hurry up and let people have part two already, I felt a hint of guilt. Like something is lacking in the story of part two. And I'm doing my best currently to do something about it.

So to all my readers who have read part one already and simply NEED to know how the story continues, I beg for patience. I wouldn't want to rush things now and then publish something which I know in my heart needs improvements. That being said, I'm positive I can manage to publish by Valentine's day! And I truly hope you'll agree that it was worth the wait.

Oh and in order to speed things up, I've already got the cover ready for the whole series anyway, in the same style as part one. Enjoy!

Just Another Day at the Office, published!

After what feels like forever, the wait for Amazon KDP to finish whatever it does before the book goes live is finally over! Get started with this first part, more are to come. I am hoping to publish part II in time for Valentine's day 2013.

Jumping in Head First

Alright, I think I've done it!

I managed to finish a story, even if it's a short one (34 pages according to Amazon) and published it for sale.

Please take a look: 
Ladies' Day by Hedonist Six 
Ladies' Day

It's now available on 

Ladies' Day is a short erotic story about two strangers from vastly different backgrounds meeting in unusual circumstances. Don't ask me why I decided to work on a story set in Mid June now, while Autumn has washed over us like a wet blanket. It seemed like a good idea when I started!

Lately I've been reading a lot of blogs on self publishing and promotional techniques, so I guess I will have to put some of the things I've learnt into practice.

So far what I've done is:
  • Written the story obviously (and edited and edited and edited some more)
  • Formatted for Kindle
  • Made a cover & wrote a short description
  • Published it on Amazon and enrolled in KDP Select. Let's see how that goes!
  • Been reasonably prolific on Facebook and joined a bunch of groups where I could promote my book
  • Set up an Author Central profile;both on .com and .co.uk (apparently this makes a difference!)
  • And not told anyone about it really. Not sure why. I think deep down I fear that the first review I get will be zero stars or something. 
Still left to do:
  • Amend the book to include my Author Central link 
  • Spam the hell out of FB, Twitter and whatever else I can find.
  • Start a 2 day free promotion and spam the hell out of everyone again.
  • Pray that I get some reviews and likes
  • Sit back and watch as the sales roll in (Hopefully. At least one.)
