Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I have written ‘Glimmers of Reality: The Hope of a Goddess’ available at smashwords as an eBook for free with the paperback version available at amazon and lulu. Still, I haven’t had many downloads. I was thinking of buying 100 copies of the paperback and getting a book shop in town to give them away, one per customer with any purchase, or something like that.

I’m a teen and I want to publish a book. I know it will be hard to find an agent because I’m only 14. I don’t want to meet my agent because I kind of want to keep my age a secret because it might affect the process. If you guys know any good agents or advice please respond. Thanks!

I liked :
Megan means guide to the mcgown boys
the boy next door
heart on a chain
cross my heart
the boyfriend thief
pushing the limits
and alot others . But those should give u an idea what kind of stories that i like to read .
P.s. Im not native English . So heavy material is not for me , like pride and prejudice … I failed epicely .

I need a good book to read (something for teenagers) and would prefer something that isn’t tragically sad. (please do not recommend the twilight series. i read those in fifth grade and would prefer not to experience anything like that again).

Hi,
So I’m writing a book at the moment that focuses mostly on the main characters growth and change, when a sudden plague takes over the city she lives in. Like a zombie movie but without zombies lol, so that kind of setting. I wanted to show her life before the sickness takes the city and how each stage of the sickness, then its spreading and the changes in people as they begin to panic and horde food and so on and how it affacts her and how she has to change to keep the people she loves safe.
So the first few chapters would be before the sickness even hits, how can I set up the novel so people get a hint of whats to come and open in an interesting way so people don’t get bored, because it would basically be her doing things in her everyday life, nothing special.
Any tips or ideas for me.

I’m trying to write a novel and am slowly making progress I’ve written several chapters to several different stories, but i’m looking for a niche, that hasn’t been used to it’s full yet, to write about… Wizards went with Harry Potter, Vampires with Twilight… Can anyone think of a decent niche or angle for a good novel?
