I've purchased countless books on marketing on Amazon and I noticed so many geared towards non-fiction that I thought perhaps the art of story telling was dead. Some of the advice was obvious. Some was over my head (html - I still have a headache thinking about it and wish someone would offer the service to put it together for me). But the section on keywords was what I was really looking for. The answer was so obvious that I overlooked it and I won't tell you what it is and cost some sales.The only issue I had, and it might not be an issue, is the part about being sent to share on facebook and twitter at the end of books. But I am using a smartphone with a Kindle app and maybe that applies to real kindles so I will not deduct a star.I wish there was a section on how to deal with those pesky 1 star reviews. I wrote a religious work and I got 1-star reviews because I quoted the Bible too much. I am being judged not on quality but because peoples ideologies don't match what I am saying. There has to be a way to combat this in a positive way.But if you write fiction and have trouble finding your way on Amazon, this is the book. I've applied the concepts to only one of my seven books and saw an increase in sales (think of it as a controlled experiment). I will say this, though, don't expect this book to rocket you to number one if you don't produce decent work (I've seen complaints from people who spelled words wrong in their titles).But thanks for writing this book. Can't wait for more.
