I was reading The Secrets to Ebook Publishing Success from Smashwords today since the words weren't flowing when I had a chance to write, and it looks like my pricing might be wrong. In it, it discusses sales at various price ranges. $.01-$.99 had a sales ratio of 5.9x, $1-$1.99 was 3.2x, $2-$2.99 was 6.22x, $6-$6.99 was 2.2x, and $10+ was 1x. For some reason, in two different years of doing the analysis, having a sale price between a dollar and $1.99 was kind of a black hole for sales. With that in mind, I plan to now price it at $0.99. That should get it out to quite a bit more readers.
On another writing note, I did write more for the muse story the other night, though I think the second section that I wrote belongs at the beginning. It's also shaping up to be a frightening story for artist types. We'll see if my muse strikes some more later this week.
That's all I have for this entry, thanks for reading!
