Hymn Of The Ancients Release Celebration!! LAUNCH SALE $0.99!

/ evantpickering / 1 Comment

The day has finally come. My beloved new fantasy novel Hymn of the Ancients is officially live on Amazon Kindle Unlimited!

I cant wait to get this baby into the hands of readers. It’s finally done and it’s time to celebrate for a few days before I get back to the grind.

All I can say is that I am incredibly proud of this work–and for those of you who are used to me writing post-apoc, don’t fret, I will write more of the wastelands. But if you have any interest in fantasy or if you enjoy my writing–I’d be honored if you gave it a shot.

And on top of that, it’s on sale for $0.99 for launch! Part of my tactical launch strategy to make the most of the Amazon Algorithm.

Anyway, to all of my readers who have supported me along the way, I am so grateful to y’all, and I really hope you enjoy this one. I know I have.

Love and gratitude,

-Evan

0.99$ BookBub Featured Deal for DEATH IN THE WASTELANDS!

/ evantpickering / 1 Comment

So I haven’t formally announced this yet on here, but I’m proud to tell you all that I’ve booked my 5th BookBub Featured deal for both US & International promotion for Death in the Wastelands. It’s the best late Christmas present I could think of!

Man, am I proud of this one.

In celebration of that, I am putting the book on sale for 0.99$ 5 days early, starting today! So if you want to pick up a copy for less than a buck, this is your chance.

What is a Bookbub Featured deal? Basically, it’s the best book-marketing platform money can buy. On Dec. 30th, my book will be promoted on sale to around 3 Million readers via Bookbub’s email service. It’s a way for readers to get cheap books and writers to get their books out there. It’s really hard to book a deal though, they have around a 5% acceptance rate.

So needless to say I’m pretty fucking psyched!

Also, for those wondering what my next project is… I’ve been working in secret on my next book. I’ll post an update soon to reveal my next upcoming work (I’m having so much fun writing it.)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, all!

BookBub Deal #2: American Rebirth Trilogy Boxset!

/ evantpickering / Leave a comment

The time has come!

Starting today, my second BookBub deal for my brand new AMERICAN REBIRTH TRILOGY BOXSET goes live!!

And I’m super fucking excited about it! Because I’m gonna sell a shitload of books. That’s just how badass BookBub is as a promotional tool.

They’re so hard to book, I’ve applied probably 20 times and I’ve only gotten two deals. I’ve heard from people who have applied hundreds of times and never gotten any. This shit is exclusive.

Hence, the excitement. Part of me wants to throw up, selling all three books of my series for 2.99$. But that’s the price of business, baby. Gotta give somethin’ to get somethin’.

IN OTHER NEWS: It’s too early to tell for sure, but I might be doing a book signing on long island sometime soon at a place called Huntington Book Revue.  I’ve never done a brick-and-mortar signing before, so it’d probably be pretty fun. Anyway, I’ll let y’all know if it happens.

Stay safe wastelanders, and happy holidays!

-Evan

VERY GOOD NEWS!! And a Moment of my Gratitude.

/ evantpickering / Leave a comment

First off, to those readers who took a second to write a review for my new American Rebirth Trilogy Box Set, thank you from the bottom of my heart. It is because of you, that this awesome news has happened:

I GOT A NEW BOOKBUB DEAL!!!!

I submitted the very Box Set Trilogy in question for a bookbub featured deal, figured it was worth a shot. I got my first bookbub deal last year for HOOD and it was incredible. I sold thousands of books in a day.

That’s how badass a Bookbub deal is.

AND I GOT ANOTHER ONE!

Thanks to those people who wrote the reviews. If I didn’t have reviews, I don’t get no deal. So thank you kindly.

The featured deal for the boxset will be on Nov. 29th-Dec 2nd. It’ll be on sale during that time.

It’s pretty baller. I’m psyched to get the box set rolling, it’s something I’m really proud of. Looking at all three books together just kinda made something click and I felt pretty happy while I was formatting it for release.

I’m trying not to flip out, but it’s pretty freaking awesome.

See you soon, wastelanders.

BookBub — Day 1 Results!

/ evantpickering / 2 Comments

So the glorious day has come.

Yesterday was my Bookbub, May 11th. A week before my birthday (woo). HOOD is on sale for $0.99.

Granted, I’m not exactly sure how it measures up vs. other people’s Bookbub promos, but…

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!

FEELS GOOD MAN.

Behold:BOOKBUB 1

Ranked #56 overall in Kindle at the highest, # 1 in Post-Apoc and #1 in Metaphys/Visionary.

BESTSELLER.png

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta.

So, for sales numbers: 2,438 books.

So what now? Basically, I try to keep promoting and spreading the word about the book for the rest of the week. Then I switch it back to 2.99 and try to make more moneys. Ideally this sort of visibility will catapult the book up to the top of the charts for an extended period of time and sales keep rolling in. At risk of sounding prideful, I think it’s a pretty damn good book (so humble) so hopefully word spreads like it did when I launched last year.

Once the week is over I’m going to post another thread to measure how the tail fares, and see if maybe I hit a USAToday Bestseller list (which would just be pure gravy IMO.)

Hope you enjoyed this clinic on over-sharing. I’m damn proud of this series. Book 2 had a bunch of sales too from this. ❤

HOOD is on sale for $0.99!

/ evantpickering / Leave a comment

So the Ebooks have grown ripe on the vine, thus I have harvested them and decided to sell them for 0.99$ on Amazon.

That, or yknow, it’s promo time. For 7 days HOOD will be 0.99$ so get em while they’re hot! If you know anyone into post-apoc or just loves a good story, they can pick one up for a buck. 879 words per penny. Don’t make me think about it in any other terms than that or my head might explode.

If you enjoyed HOOD, let people know about it! Now’s the time for people to pick up a copy if they want to give it a shot.

It really means the world to me if you share this book with people. I’m incredibly proud of the success it’s had so far. But I want more people to enjoy the story, so I’ll love you forever if you let someone know about it 🙂

And don’t worry, I’m hard at work on BOOK 3, American Rebirth. It’s gonna take some time given how much my life has exploded lately, but the story is moving along. I’m pretty excited to see it finished.

Have a good weekend you savages,

-Evan
