'Rage' free promo results!

The free 'Rage' promo has now finished :-(... I didn't have much of a chance to promote it in the last 1/2 day of the two, but it did quite well, and I also had a few sales, which put up my 'ranks' on Amazon's author central :-)
Almost 80% of the free downloads of 'rage' were on Amazon.com, but the UK, Germany, France(!), Italy, India and Canada did their bit, too. Thank you to everyone who downloaded :-) I hope you read it and also perhaps...review it? :-)
Here are the rank results from the 'Rage' free 2 day promo...(the best ranks)
Amazon.com - #1,985 (#91 Fantasy>Paranormal & Urban)
Amazon.co.uk - #1,771 (#31 Fantasy>Contemporary)
Amazon.de - #1,787 (#47 Fantasy & SciFi>Fantasy)

With the surprise sales...
Manna-X on Amazon.com - #198,592
Beth Fiasco on Amazon.com - #198,634 

And overall...
Author rank - #112,624
Books - #78,963
Kindle - #44,498
Kindle/Lit+Fic - #15,893
Science Fiction - #5,159
Science Fiction/Fantasy -  #2,179

So, I think a good few days...could be better with some advertising but who's got that money? One day...

'Dani's Shorts' is still free...:-) Spread the word!

The real gold at the end of the rainbow?

A bit of a quite time for me, finished making amendments to 'Macbeth' Dani J Caile / ESL learners style, and the students can't wait to try it out. I got more students than I needed so I had to add parts...now it's great...about 5-10 minutes when performed, hopefully.
Today I found out that the reason someone didn't say 'Hi' yesterday was because they were reading 'Dani's Shorts' on their phone...
...And another friend was very angry / upset this morning, and while travelling to work on public transport, they read a bit of 'Manna-X' (the Moses-Reg bit) and it made them feel much better :-)
The BIGGEST reasons I write is to 1. make people think and 2. give them some entertainment. It looks like I succeeded :-) I'm happy :-)
Tomorrow starts a 2 day FREE promo for 'Rage'...it has three out of three 5 star reviews...SPREAD the WORD, wherever you are, wherever you work, spread it, I'd like to reach a milestone, perhaps even break into the #1000 free ebooks on Amazon.com...who knows?

Another ESL play in the bag

Last year I had a go at 'Midsummer Night's Dream' with my 6th form ESL class. It was long and difficult, but they finally pulled it off. There's a 30 minute video somewhere...the script and stuff are here...

This year, it's not compulsory, but I'm getting the children who want to try again together, this time do a version of 'Macbeth'. After days of thinking, I put pen to paper, so to speak, and I have a 'role-change' Macbeth play called 'Beth'. It's probably 5-10 minutes long.
Still working on those novelettes...
Thursday and Friday! 'Rage' is FREE! :-)

'Rage' free on Thursday and Friday +

Yes, just a reminder to say 'Rage' will be free on Thursday and Friday.
I'm getting some strange hits from countries which have never come to the blog before, for example, Qatar. All well and good :-)
Busy ATM, working on 2 novelettes, 1 ESL play (Macbeth) and the Challenge stories. Woke up this morning with a great little idea/conspiracy story...Just a few 100 words per day, if I'm lucky.
Looking forward to the 'Rage' promo...are you?
