His Robot Girlfriend - 7500 Downloads
My novel "His Robot Girlfriend" has been available as a fee ebook download for just over three months now, and between Smashwords, Manybooks, and Feedbooks, it has been downloaded over 7500 times-- more than 5500 just at Feedbooks.

I have gotten many great emails full of both wonderful comments and helpful criticism. Thanks to all of you who took the time from your busy life to read it.

Well done, Wes! I enjoyed His Robot Girlfriend when it first came out and just recently raced through Princess Of Amathar. It had an Edgar Rice Burroughs vibe that I really liked. Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words Moe. You might have noticed that Princess of Amathar was dedicated to Edgar Rice Burroughs (and my wife). His books got me through my junior high and high school years and this really was an homage to him.

Hmmm, I just read "At the Earth's Core" and enjoyed it a lot also have Pellucidar on my reader....looks like Princess of Amathar may be next.

CONGRATULATIONS!

“How to Write the First 3 Paragraphs of YOUR Indie Novel” - by Max Waxwelp
1) Always write 3 sentences of exposition; 2) now create some dialogue, preferably no more than 2 sentences; and 3) make certain the dialogue is either inane or humorous. Example:
“Bob, I did not know you wore yellow suspenders,” Sally remarked.
“Gee, Sally, those are not suspenders. I am wearing yellow underwear today,” Bob revealed.
The dialogue above will help produce at least 100 more pages of dialogue.

Just finished reading "His Robot Girlfriend" and was very impressed. Didn't end at all the way I thought it would.

Thanks for the free intro to your work. I'll be checking out some of your other books, now. You have a fan.

That's awesome, Wes. I really think the 'getting out there' for free strategy and then raising the price to a still bargain level is a great way to go. Congratulations on your success.
