I got my Kindle the first week of December 2009. I immediately went to the Amazon Kindle site in search of books. Because I was new to this I was pleasantly surprised to see books for free. That was my first reaction. My second reactions was "Can't be that good if they are free." But being the frugal fannie that I am, I clicked and bought all of them. Let me just tell you, not all were good BUT two of those 8 were fantastic and I have since Purchased additional books by those authors. Sure, there might be spelling or grammar mistakes but nothing that bothers me so much I put the book down. I have purchased full price books that were formatted horribly. As with anything else, there will always be mistakes.

I am now a big fan of and purchaser of Indie authors' works. I have read some fantastic pieces. And I am not alone. If you go to Amazon you will find the threads concerning indie authors. It is one of, if not the most popular thread over there. Many, many readers are now devoted to reading Indie authors.

With everything I have said, I personally would offer one of your books for free. If you have a series, offer the first book. If it's good, they will buy the others.

Good luck!

Cathy
