The artwork is excellent, so a portion of those who read my book for FREE will buy a hard copy of my work. Giving away my work has been free advertising and I believe I have sold more copies because I give my work away for free. I am by no means wealthy, but that is how you get your name out there.

Sometimes these ideas are counter intuitive, but there are ways to use them to come out on top.
Why not Smashwords?
