So the big A has fubared something on their end and not sent me most of my royalty payments this month (this is actually a first–whatever issues I have with Amazon, they are much more consistent about paying me on time than I ever experienced in publishing). Which I was kind of counting on*, as one does when this is how one makes one’s living and one has just spent a month’s worth of rent/bill money at the vet. *cough*
While I wait for some help from them, I’ve temporarily set up a coupon code for my online ebook store–25% by entering the code catfood at checkout. Buying direct from me means I get paid more money and right away, and YOU get DRM ebooks in all formats, so it’s win-win. Also, my cats get to eat something other than my corpse, so it’s win-win-WIN.
And if you’re a writer and might need a cover, my pre-mades can be bought for $10 off (even the ones on sale) with the same coupon code at checkout, catfood. There’s a catch with that one, though, in that the coupon can only be used once per person and only by five people. Once five have used it, it’s done. (If you want a cover but don’t have a title yet, you can buy it now and ask me to customize it later–that’s fine too.)
The coupon code does not apply to the lone print book in my shop or to other services offered at my design site (I am booked solid for the next little while–pre-made covers are finished and therefore not new work, hence the sale).
I’ll edit the post to add when the ebook code is no longer valid (it’ll probably be a week-long thing). Thanks!
*It is not dire. Do not randomly send me money, I am not asking for a handout. I have some pennies coming through PayPal shortly and work to finish up this week that I’ll be paid for too. But it’s gotten a little uncomfortably tight while I’m juggling paying for medication and having to actually budget for groceries now that I can eat plus catching up for work as I’m figuring out my spoon allotment now, and I’d really like to get some cat food for the week since I don’t know how long it’ll take A to fix this. Also litter. Litter is good. Hence sales on stuff that doesn’t increase my work/stress load.
If you don’t need a book or a cover, passing it along to someone who would is a great help. Thank you.
