But There's Still the Gift Card
Catherine Ryan Hyde
When I last blogged about the ebook edition of my novel WHEN I FOUND YOU, it was just about to go on a 5-day free promotion on Amazon.
I'm pleased to say that promotion went well. Amazingly well. I mean...you could have knocked me over with a feather. That well.
It hit #1 in Kindle Free, with over 81,000 copies downloaded. When the promotion ended, it climbed up to #12 in Kindle Paid. The combination of the free downloads and actual sales numbers created a “popularity” rating of #3 in the Kindle store as a whole, #5 on all of Amazon books. I was hovering between two Hunger Games books on the Kindle main page. It was a heady experience.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 people have downloaded the WHEN I FOUND YOU ebook.
Was I a total dork to take a screenshot? Undoubtedly! But it shows how excited I really was.
And anyone who wants to write a review of it on Amazon is still eligible for the drawing for a $25 Amazon gift card. The details are in the previous giveaway post. So do read up. But I want to stress again that I am not trying to reward the most positive review. Write an honest review, and I'll choose at random. All opinions of the book stand the same chance.
So, sorry to say you can no longer hop out and grab a free copy. But if you're one of the 81,000 people who did, or one of the 15,000 or so who have bought the book since, jump in on the giveaway.
If you already reviewed it on Amazon, just leave a comment telling me so. On this or the previous giveaway post. That way I can contact you if you win.
Winner drawn on April 15th. Good luck!
AND THE WINNER IS...Lisa C! Thanks so much to those who took the time to get involced. And Lisa...you've got mail.
