Dean Chills: Jack’s Anniversary

 

Jacks Anniversary 200x300Stay tuned at the end of the show and I’ll fill you in on a way to get my audiobooks for FREE!

Topic One: Description

How important is the role of description in erotica?

Is it good to be very descriptive or more vague about characters and locations?

Are the answers above different with other (non-erotic) genres?

Does it tie in with cover art?

Erotica-specific: How do you talk about sex for forty books and stay original?

  

Topic Two: Bundling

Do bundles sell better than individual books?

Do you leave the original books available while selling the bundles or do you take them down?

Pricing vs. Free.

 

And as I mentioned at the beginning of the show, I have an offer for you to get a couple of my audiobooks for free. I have promo codes to get “Scuba Lessons #1: Pool Time” for free through Audible.com. I only have a handful of them, so I can’t give them out to just everyone, so here’s the deal. E-mail me and ask for one, I’ll send you the free code, but you have to promise to leave a review on Audible and/or Amazon for the book. Send me another email, pointing me to your review, and I’ll send you ANOTHER code for the second book in the series, “The Quarry.” If you review THAT one and contact me, I’ll send you a review code for the third book when it gets released. Three free books just for doing a couple of quick reviews. Not, these are gay-themed stories, so if that doesn’t interest you, please don’t ask for a code!

We really want to hear from you.
