Teen Book Series of the 80s and 90s – a peek into my past

I don’t often talk about this, but 2 weeks out of college, armed with my brand new English degree, I began writing for 3 different Young Adult series. This was back in the late 80s, early 90s. When all was said and done I had a dozen print books under my belt for publishers such as Sports Illustrated for Kids (Warner), Tor, and Western Publishing (owners of Golden Books).

Still, here is what I think might possibly be true… Preorder sales for a book are very (VERY) important. It’s the sales accumulated during preorder that can drive a book to the best seller lists, we think, possibly, because even though I’m trying to convince a friend a mine to work for Amazon and spy for me she hasn’t consented to do so yet so we’re all just guessing here. Here is another thing we’re guessing about…it was rumored that books with more Reader Ratings and Reviews, good or bad, get special treatment at Amazon as far as promotion. Things such as inclusion in emails, or the ‘recommended for you’ titles shown when you visit the site. I’ve heard […]
