Amazon Best Seller Campaigns

I'm wondering if anyone out there has attempted such a campaign and, if so, what were the results. I'm also wondering, since numerous Net sites sell info on how to do this, if anyone now trying it on a given day would be up against a number of similar campaigners.

Good writing,

Jim

UPDATE: AMAZON REINSTATES AUTHOR'S REVIEWS--WITH AUTHOR'S BOOK TITLE!

Today I received an email from a senior member of the Amazon Communities team. He apologized and stated that my reviews had been reinstated.

I began… Continue

Amazon is deleting reviews written by authors who include their book title

Since breaking the news yesterday about my battle with Amazon over reviews (ones I wrote on books I'd read) that they deleted (85 reviews) because I included author of Whale Song in my signature line, I've received emails and phone calls from concerned authors, many who tracked me down via the Internet after reading about me on Twitter, The Write Type or John Kremer's Marketing Tips email. Some authors have already discovered missing reviews; some have gone through the same hassle I… Continue

...a tale of pursuing your dreams...

I wrote a story once about a young man who was yet to find his place within the creative world. I have come to believe that all people--whether you believe it or not--have a talent and gift unique to ONLY them... and I further believe that if you choose to ignore the inner voice of your creativity, you are hindering your soul's ability to find complacency and peace within the harmony of your life. To draw a contrast between those who are still "seeking answers" and those who have chosen to… Continue
