Under Witch Curse Book 3 Urban Fantasy

Under Witch Curse is book 3 in the Moon Shadow Series (urban fantasy) and is now for sale. Under Witch Moon and Under Witch Aura are books one and two respectively.

The book can be purchased at all Amazon stores.

WILL SOON BE MOVING EXCLUSIVELY TO AMAZON for 90 days for visibility purposes.


I do not plan to upload to Smashwords because they no longer sell publisher ISBNs. They do give away Smashwords ISBNs, but that records them as the publisher. So the only current way to purchase without DRM and in multiple formats is via my blog store: You get a zip file with mobi and epub in one zip for one price. If you want a different format, let me know.

Quote:
When is a blessing a curse? What if you curse a blessing? Adriel needs the answers, and quickly, because one spell will keep vampires at bay and the other will set something far worse free. Vamps aren’t her only problem, either. Zandy, the wily coyote, is back in town, and he’s out for blood. Someone had better find him fast because the body count is rising.

With White Feather to help, Adriel expects life to get easier, but the relationship comes with new responsibilities and unpleasant surprises that put a price on friendship. This time, Adriel might just need more than solid ground beneath her feet and the wind at her back in order to survive.
As always--thanks so much for all your support.

I think pretty much everyone knows and admits that when it comes to book sales, Amazon is the leader. They know it and so does everyone else. I've avoided playing the exclusive game of selling only on Amazon for the last two years. I have loyal B&N, Sony and other epub readers. The problem is, I don't have enough of them. By not going exclusive on Amazon my books miss out on rankings and visibility--and this means it costs me new readers.

I tried to avoid being exclusive because I think it hurts overall market penetration in the long run, but a girl has to eat. So I'll be moving my latest book, Under Witch Curse, to the Amazon exclusive bucket on Wednesday. Readers will no longer be able to buy it from my blog or any other retailers for at least 90 days.

Once Under Witch Curse is exclusive to Amazon, it will be available for Prime members to borrow through the monthly "one borrow a month" program. It will be for sale for $4.99 the entire 90 day exclusive period.

If going exclusive is the only way I can continue writing...well, I'll try to balance things out as much as possible. I don't like exclusivity because I like free markets. But I hope to be able to get back to writing again someday. Without more sales, that simply isn't possible.
