For the record, you had one buyer who is off Amazon for books - so please encourage BBS participants to do these things:

-Post to Barnes & Noble or any other distributer who makes books available in ePub or similar.

-Offer a Kobo or other ePub-reader friendly donation to their KOFEE or TipJar or what have you on their author site in return for an e-copy at the BBS price.

-Offer a discounted paper-copy on Amazon.

I'm trying to get completely off Amazon entirely. We've found local suppliers for nearly everything.

"We have the numbers."

That's the way to start off a post!

Thanks! Many of the book promotions I encounter are less than forthcoming about their true marketing muscle. I like to be up front about what the sale can do for authors, so participants can set their expectations accordingly.
