What should a person who cannot stop imagining and telling stories do? Easy answer: she should become a writer, prove that she can follow and fulfil her dreams, establish a successful writing career path, and, since all new writers face the same obstacles to get their books promoted, she should also be caring enough to help other independent writers to become successful.
And that’s exactly my case and what I’ve been doing. It was only on March 27th 2016 that I published and released my first book on Amazon: ‘Calling the Past’. Only four days later, on May 31st, I published and released, again on Amazon, ‘Effective Strategy to Promote Your eBook’. And, ever since I’ve moved ahead with these two projects, I never looked back.
I can happily say that ‘Calling the Past’ is being quite successful. Inspired in Adele’s Hello song, it’s a story that depicts love as it really is: a deep but flawed sentiment that has a beautiful side which is often clouded by mistakes and bad decisions. ‘Calling the Past’ is the story of Carlos and Emily, who fall madly in love only to soon bump into a crude reality: the initial thrilling idea of being together forever can suddenly lose some of its glow… especially when one of the lovers, Emily, impetuously brings changes into the couple’s plans. While these changes are abrupt and seem great at first, the truth is that they cannot outweigh the feelings that made Emily fall in love in the first place, nor the nostalgia of a sweet love that was as nurtured by meaningful gestures, as it was pressured by wrong calls.
In short, ‘Calling the Past’ is a realistic love story that I’m sure that many readers can promptly relate to – and see as a helpful reflection of their own experiences, with the precious clarifying perspective that this brings.
I am currently finishing ‘Calling the Past II’ and beginning the draft of ‘Calling the Past III’, where readers are invited to follow Carlos and Emily’s story, while also witnessing so many common problems of life as it really is. Problems that the story’s characters face, and which shed a light on important issues such as domestic violence, deceitful experiences, loss of loved ones, and, ultimately, the things that are most important in one’s life.
On the other hand, and as I keep on building my writing career, I can also say that I am very proud of how my other book, ‘Effective Strategy to Promote Your eBook’, is doing. It is essentially an account of a real independent new writer who had to find ways of making independent book promotion work. In this book, I offer a strong collection of precious insights and practical advice for other new writers to follow – if they want to enjoy an easy, honest and straightforward way of going self-published and being successful at it.
As a compulsive writer, and as I keep on learning new methods and strategies – that I actually test, try and validate through my experiences – to become a successful independent writer, I am currently preparing two other books with even better and fresher strategies that writers can use to make it in the vast universe of emerging independent writers.
This is why I am now seeking to raise €14,000 – so that I can launch and promote ‘Calling the Past II’ firstly, followed by the launch and promotion of ‘Calling the Past III’. I also want to have the ‘Calling the Past’ three-book series translated to English (currently only available in Spanish), and have those translated versions equally promoted. As part of my plan, I also want to have my website translated into English (now it is only available in Spanish). Finally, I also intend to use these funds to have ‘Effective Strategy to Promote Your eBook’ translated into English, and also to launch and promote the other books that I am preparing to help new writers to successfully promote their works.
- That’s why I am now kindly inviting you to secure a special access to the books that I am preparing to launch, this way also supporting my editorial projects – by choosing one of the great rewards that I have on offer.
- I also invite you to share this campaign with your friends and family members who may also want to enjoy reading the ‘Calling the Past’ love story series, and/or who may wish to benefit from the tried, tested and proven strategies for new writers that I outline on my other works.
Thank you so much, and I hope to be soon sending your books – as a supporter of my work, you’ll get to read the ones that are yet to be launched before anyone else does!
