(This post uses affiliate links. Read the last paragraph for more information.) The week after Christmas is the best time for authors because that’s when most people buy their books. You may wonder why this time of year generates so many sales for authors. It’s because people get Amazon gift cards for Christmas and want to spend on things they might not otherwise buy throughout the year. Books have become one of life’s guilty pleasures. They make the perfect gift for yourself and others.
Buy Books
Obviously, you should get my books with your Amazon gift card. I’ve written 16 books, including my latest in the style of Choose Your Own ending books. Creativity skills for better problem solving, fictional answers to questions I had in Russia, and autobiographical tales about My Life in the Projects and My Life in the Peace Corps. For the younger set, I have Polly Penguin Wants to Fly. Whether you’re looking for entertainment or information, I have a book for you. My favorite is The Pirate Union for its sense of 90s’ humor.
Need More Books
But Shad, I have all your books. Then I recommend picking up books by Darren Lamb, Drue M. Scott, and T. M. Brenner. They’re stories are unique and not something you’d get from mainstream book publishers. If you want more creativity in your story-telling, these three authors have it in spades. Which reminds me, I’ve got to get back to editing Lamb’s and Scott’s books. That’s on me.
I Don’t Read
If you’ve gotten this far in this article, clearly, you do read. You just don’t think of yourself as a reader. That’s okay. Amazon has lots of other products available for your purchase. I would stick in the movies area, but music is also nice. I love Legos, even if I can’t afford them. Whatever you need, Amazon has it, and if you use one of my affiliate links, I’ll get a commission and your product won’t cost you anything more.
