Free Promotion Days

I just finished a three day, free promotion period for "Walk Forward" on Amazon Kindle.
Several hundred copies of the book were downloaded worldwide during the free promotion period.

It is interesting to note that sales of a book seem to increase as soon as one advertises free days, but the sales do not seem to necessarily continue after the promotion ends.

Although the UK is active in downloading the ebook, very few downloads have taken place in Germany. Germany does not yet appear to be a fan of ebooks, but will most probably catch up sometime in the near future. When Germans are ready to read ebooks in mass, hopefully, they will download Walk Forward. 

In the first six months, many more ebooks have been downloaded that paperback copies sold. 

The link to Walk Forward on Amazon.com in the U.S. is http://www.amazon.com/Walk-Forward-ebook/dp/B009H6Y7AC.
