Hello again, readers! It’s been a while since I last posted, but I wanted to let you what’s been going on. Basically, I ran into some back luck in the new year. My site (yes, my little author site that only like 5 people read) was hacked.
Yes, hacked.
Ugggghhh :/.
I can’t tell you how disheartening/upsetting/alarming that was–but thankfully, I found help in the form of a WordPress tech wizard named Wesley. He and his company came in and worked their magic. They got rid of all the bad stuff. I’m so thankful for his help, expertise and professionalism. It eased my mind to know that he was on the case. And seriously, he helped me get my site back up and running, so yayyyyy, hip-hip-hooray for Wesley the tech wizard!!! 🙂
In bookish news, this week I’m trying something new! BookBub is a site that helps readers find new books and that allows authors to promote their work. Like I said in my Goals post, I want to do better at promoting, so this seemed like a great opportunity. Nerves got to me; the BookBub process was said to be very selective. I’d read several blog posts about this and was worried that my book wouldn’t be selected. However, I decided to go for it anyway because what did I have to lose?
And guess what? They selected ADORKABLE for a Featured Deal!!! Huzzah!
I was elated. Part of me had trouble believing it, and I gotta say I’m so excited about this promotion!
ADORKABLE will be available for just $0.99 from January 29 until February 2, 2018. That’s Monday through Friday, you guys! If you’d help me spread the word, I’d be ever so grateful <3.
I’m also working on a giveaway! Not sure yet if it will be a Goodreads, Rafflecopter or Facebook giveaway, but I’m looking forward to it. Hint, hint: There will be signed copies of NINJA GIRL and ADORKABLE involved :).
Happy reading,
Cookie O’Gorman
P.S. I sent my next book to the formatter today, eep! And I’ve been working with my designer on a cover that makes me go starry-eyed sigh *__*. I hope you all have a great week!
Hello! I found your book through BookBub and read it last night. I loved it! It was so cute. I cannot wait to read your next book! Just wanted to let you know that your advertising was working 🙂
Ahhh, I’m so glad to hear that you liked ADORKABLE! It’s so good to know how you found it, too, because I usually I have no clue how people find my books lol :). Yay, BookBub!!! Thank you so much, K-Dee, and I hope you have a great day!
