A writer posted in a group,
boasting about
how many pre-orders of her first book
she had received.
She claimed she did absolutely nothing
to gain those pre-orders.
Other writers got excited,
wanted to know more
about her niche,
talked about having books
they could also launch in it.
These other writers
believe this niche is easy money.
I know, for a fact,
this ‘surprised’ writer
worked her a$$ off
to promote this book.
I saw her posting
in all of the Facebook groups.
She befriended
the best selling writers
in her niche.
She commented on
their social media posts.
She worked every free way
of promoting a book
there is.
Unpaid promotion
is still promotion.
It can be even more successful
than paid promotion.
Be proud
of your hard work
and the success it brings.
