In the digital world of publishing, being an author is not about simply writing the book. We also have to be savvy business people too. We have to understand pricing, positioning, promotion, and branding.
Lucky for me, I love this part of my career. I love trialing covers and blurbs and interacting with my readers. AND the great thing is I can change covers and blurbs when I see something is not working.
So, I’ve recovered my Coopers Creek series to better reflect the series positioning. I think the old covers were confusing and didn’t reflect the sexy, flirty read the stories are. It’s a hero centric series and they are millionaires, but the stories are largely set in Coopers Creek, a small town near Denver.
