This is my primary marketing strategy. My four short stories are free all the time. They all have the first chapter of the full length book as a sample, along with a link to smashwords, or instructions to buy it from the store they bought them from. This week, I also put the book at half off to take advantage of the crowds.

My secondary strategy is to write lots more.
