Hello, friends. I want to start this post by acknowledging how hard this year has been for so many people, myself included. Material things feel stupid right now, but they can also be essential, so I’m doing something that’s difficult for independent writers and artists to do just because I want to do it: I’m having a small Black Friday sale, starting now, on a Wednesday, because what are days of the week in 2020 anyway?
First things first: most people want to support local people, and a lot of people are broke right now. So let’s talk about the free ways you can show your fandom for your favorite creators.
Reviews are essential. Online reviews — for example, if you have a blog, or on sites like Amazon — are amazing because of the reach they can have. But word-of-mouth can be even more powerful, and I know, because some of my biggest supporters have come from someone who told them, “You have to check this out.”
Even without a full review, you can put those fingers, toes, and other appendages to use with a few simple clicks: Likes, Shares, Comments, Saves, Tags, and Photos can go a long way in giving your love.
Now, for my sale: I’m offering discounted prices and a never-before-available bundle for the first few weeks of the holiday season! Need to catch up or complete your collection? Now’s the time. Want to get your friend into something but don’t want to potentially lose your own copy? Grab a gift!
Feel free to message me with any questions or requests.
I put a lot of love into my work, and I know some people could use a little love and hope right now. Discounting my own work is stupid, but if it means even one more person can dig in, then it is more than worth it.
Happy Holidays to you all. All my love.
