Slogging toward the launch

I have book 5 back from the editor, and some feedback that it’s a solid addition to the Kethem series (always important; as a author, it’s hard to subjectively or objectively compare your books side by side). But, given that, it was time to rebrand the series as, well, a series.

Based on feedback from a few people, I’ve renamed “The Fair Elaine” to “Truthseeker,” and changed the cover to match the color schemes from the other four books. Plus added a new domain name/author web site (http://www.dwdickie.com/).

And now it’s time to start trying to sell the series. It’s still a bit bewildering how exactly you build a name brand, despite a large amount of material in book and blog form on how to do it. Most certainly, for books published through Amazon’s self-publishing service, Kindle Direct Publishing, the most important thing are getting reviews. So if you’ve read the books, but haven’t posted a review, please take the time to leave even a one line review of the books.
