Author Collaborations to get more eyes on books

My fellow author, Sanjiva, had a bit of a chuckle and said that we five, were the “Famous Five“, the five authors who responded to my invite to collaborate in a shared promotion on St James Day, 25th July.

This post is a sort of behind the scenes of an author life, how do we promote our books and how and why. It’s a mystery why out of a membership of 800+ Camino authors, only a few responded at all. And only five joined in on the promotion to share our books for free or at a discount. Those great camino authors are in the previous post — go check them out here.

We had a wide selection, despite the small number, from travelogues, inspirational. transformational and historical fiction, there was something for everyone, or almost everyone. I could only download one book, because I had already bought the others.

So why only Five

Some authors could not join as they were traditionally published, and not allowed to by the publishers — a valid reason for you to check out why you need to join the disruptive publishing revolution
