Why Does My Book Not Sell? 20 Simple Fixes Indie Publishing Success Sell More Books Writer Craft 9 edition by Rayne Hall Reference eBooks

Rayne always has great writing knowledge to share. As she mentioned in the beginning of this book it is not really for the newbie, though there are a few things to be learned.

She goes from how to create an enticing cover to a catchy blurb that will get your readers wanting to buy the book. Where the book overwhelms the new writer but helps those who have one or more books out is explaining how to get reviews that are honest, marketing that seem reasonable that really aren't, and how to promote to readers instead of the billion of writers communities you probably are a part of.

For the new writer, her advice about how to chance up your first scene and make it more memorable, words to avoid that make you look like a newbie, and again how to write a great blurb and set up your book cover to get the best buying reaction are invaluable. (But I'm going to tell you what was going on in my head when I was reading it....finish your dang book first THEN you can read her helpful hints.)

As always I love that she shares what's she's done in the past that hasn't worked for her. It makes her books more accessible and gives a feeling of "we're in this together" and gives her a very likable quality. The pictures only add to the book to lighten up the mood if you find you've been doing things that aren't making you sales.

Very worth the read. Thanks Rayne.

Why Does My Book Not Sell? 20 Simple Fixes Indie Publishing Success Sell More Books Writer Craft 9 edition by Rayne Hall Reference eBooks Reviews

Like many other people have pointed out this book is best suited for people that are already published - indie writers to be exact. I do think that any writer can learn something from this book... I don't think that newbies won't learn anything from this book, I mean we can all learn from everyone's mistakes, right? But the book is meant for already published writers.

Rayne writers the Writer's Craft series and this is a piece of it. In this book she really looks at things like how to make an awesome cover and blurb that will bring readers to you. Through the 20 different chapters, Rayne looks at different things that might hinder you in getting those much desired sales and reviews. She does a good job at looking at promotions too. I love how she even looks at Twitter and what your tweets might do or not do.

If you're looking for a book that presents answers to a lot of common questions many writers face or haven't even thought about, this is the book for you. It does an excellent job at breaking things down and answering questions you didn't even know you had, but you totally did! I'd love to get a print copy of the book because I feel like it's something I'd happily go back and reference to recheck things! Check it out, at the time of this review it's only $0.99! That's $0.99 that could help you potentally make a ton more!
I bought this book thinking it would be same-old, same-old, like hundreds of other books out there telling you the same stuff that doesn't work. I had vowed never to buy one of thse how to sell books on ever again. They are all rehashed tips that are outdated, badly written, and making their authors money every time a desperate indie author buys a copy. But...I had seen Rayn Hall advertising her books on Twitter and I was attracted enough to look for it on and buy a copy. I'm pleased that I did. Well-written, easy to read with useful info, debunking marketing myths that others sell. I loved this book and am now keen to read some of her other Writer's Craft books. This lady knows what she is talking about!
Since the revolution, the independent publishing business can be reduced to three simple rules writing a book is hard, publishing a book is easy, selling a book makes writing look like a cakewalk. Aspiring young authors who spent hundreds, if not thousands of dollars at writer’s conferences may wish they had simply downloaded (or bought) Rayne Hall’s Why Does My Book Not Sell? 20 Simple Fixes.

Why Does My Book Not Sell? contains more useful information than I remember gleaning from a decade of seminars, and corrects a great deal of misinformation passed out to boot. For years publishers and agents buzzed about platforming, much of it an excuse to avoid marketing their own writers. Hall’s information was more concise and, in my opinion, far more correct. And she never used the word “platforming.”

Hall covers three basic strategies Tweak your book, tweak your marketing campaign, and, most important, improve your writing.

It may seem counterintuitive to discuss writing skills when your book is already on the market, but Hall believes writers sell books by look forward to their next book. She also recognizes that many authors now use print on demand and eBook delivery, which allows them to revisit their books and revise them (which may require a new ISBN should the revisions be substantial).

Her tweaking strategies, such as a cover redesign, are right on target. Hall and my first publisher, the late Susan Bright of Plain View Press, are in total agreement. Covers sell or kill books. I’ve been unhappy with the cover of one of my books from the beginning and just a glance at some of her examples allowed me to rethink the problem entirely.

Independent authors new to the publishing game may find Hall’s marketing strategies formidable, but well worth exploring. From trimming and focusing your social media presence to positioning your book for special category sales, she offers a number of precise tools to position you to boost sales.

As with her popular Twitter for Writers, Hall’s prose is clean, enjoyable and easy to follow. Even if your books are selling, you would be wise to see if she has a few tricks you haven’t stumbled across.
