SOOP Dollars – Use ’em or Lose ’em!
When we began awarding SOOP Dollars, only the top three authors were eligible (now it’s the top five). The first SOOP Dollars are due to expire October 2015, a year from when they were earned. Our first SOOP Dollar winners were:
- Vivek Kumar $50SD
- Nicole Collet $25SD
- Colton Zacharias $10SD
Turning Votes into Fans
Every successful author needs fans — people dedicated to her and her book, who are more than willing to spread the word about both. In the latter portion of our publishing process, the focus is on acquiring fans, who are much more valuable than a simple vote. A vote gives a book idea writer an email address to which she can send a message telling about the publication of her book eventually. A fan gives an author an evangelist who will spread the word and, perhaps more importantly, the excitement. Read more here.
