July 2026

My books finished unpublishing from all the other retail sites, so I added them to KDP Select this morning, which means that they’re available to read for free for those with Kindle Unlimited accounts, and can still be purchased normally as well.  Not sure if this was the right move, but I figured it was worth a shot.

I can’t remember the last time I sold a book on any site other than Amazon, so I’ve decided to remove my books from publication on all the other retail sites so I can enroll my books in KDP select. This is good news for KDP users, as they’ll now be included in the KDP library where you can read them as part of your account, and I’ll get paid a bit for the number of page reads, plus I’ll still be able to sell actual copies. I may or may not leave the books in Select depending on how it does, but I’ll probably leave them in there for at least a half a year or more just to give them a chance.  I gotta do something to get more eyes on them. My wife is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer, so I could use some extra income to help out.

Aside from that, I’m still trying to come up with a new story idea, but as you can imagine, my focus has been elsewhere for a while now. Plus, my fingers are only operating at about 80% all this time after my carpal tunnel surgeries, so typing can be a rather frustrating experience, even on the best of days.
