Big Sale (Payhip), Baby Sale (Smashwords)

So I did a thing. 

But, firstly, a bigger thing, i.e., the big sale over at my Payhip site. When you purchase a copy of Doppelgänger, you can add another book from the Grotesqueries collection for free. This BOGO sale will be on through the end of March, and it's there to help promote my new release. 

So head on over there if you'd like to support me directly.  

Secondly, a baby sale -- this time I decided to hold a 50% off sale through the month of March over at Smashwords for two books specifically: Hell-Knights and The Flowers of St. Aloysius. 

I only plan to offer future BOGO sales of my books over at Payhip, by the way, because I'd like to draw more reader traffic toward that site. It's my personal store, and I have a lot more freedom when it comes to offering sales and other promos. 

As for Smashwords, I decided to try out their site-specific deals via Draft2Digital since D2D now owns Smashwords, and I can play with their coupon manager feature since I can't participate in their tri-annual site-wide blitz sales (the rules aren't flexible enough for me, I'm afraid). For this month, I'm offering the two novels listed above for my first round of sales. Depending on how well this ends up, I might be doing this on a monthly basis, but by and large, my Payhip store will be where the bigger deals are. 

And I'm going to make it a thing now that each new book released -- all of which will be for the Grotesqueries collection -- will mark a month-long BOGO sale linked to that book and the rest of the other long novellas under that heading. That will be the only time I'll be offering any of my 99 cent books at some kind of discount. The rest of the year will be a mix of 60 - 80% off or maybe a limited BOGO for the rest of my backlist.  

I already have two sales set up for April and May (one per month), and I just need to put one together for June before the next big sale for Grotesqueries, i.e., when The Shadow Groom releases on July 1.
