YA Bound tour for Private Internship, plus special request: ebook to paperback help

This week is the YA Bound tour for Private Internship. One more big promo push for my beloved, troubled artists, Sienna and Caz in their sugar warehouse. And a personal request to all of you who are curious about, or already enjoy new adult lit. I'm not often this direct, but... Inkspell, my publisher can only release Private Internship in paperback if it sells over a certain amount for the first three months. I'll be attending YAtopia June 2015 in Nashville and the RT Booklovers con May 2015 in Dallas. For that I'll need paperbacks. Plus, I'd love to meet you-authors, readers. So, please consider buying an ebook!
Amazon, B&N, All Romance Ebooks, Kobo

  6. You asked what promo others do - I did a big blog hop and multi-author giveaway when my book came out. It did okay, but not in the long run. But everyone I know who spends on advertising doesn't do well either. I'm pretty sure it's just luck - so make sure you love what you do 'coz success is like winning the lotto.

    Thanks for the fabulous giveaway. What great prizes!

    I don't think I have ever attended a Facebook Party of a twitter chat- but they are two things I am curious about.
