The Pricing is the Thing…

Posted on 2022-03-012022-03-03 by Chris Tullbane

A subject that pops up from time to time in self-publishing circles is pricing.  How much is too much? Is there even such a thing as too cheap? Do readers treat free books differently than they would books they have to buy? And is there even such a thing as a consensus opinion these days?

The truth is that there are a lot of factors that go into a pricing decision and many of those factors are external in nature. With the release of The Italian Screwjob somehow only two weeks away, I thought I’d take you all on a quick trip through the modern day theme park ride that is my strategy for pricing.

One Tin Soldier: Chapter 4

Posted on 2021-11-022021-11-02 by Chris Tullbane

One Tin Soldier: Chapter 3

Posted on 2021-10-282021-11-02 by Chris Tullbane

We had a week to get things together before Mammoth and the Mission left town. I spent most of it with Tessa, of course, each of us coming to grips with the reality that the next time we saw each other would be damn near Christmas.

One Tin Soldier: Chapter 2

Posted on 2021-10-262021-11-02 by Chris Tullbane

I loathe being the center of attention. Maybe things were different back when my mom was still breathing, but if so, growing up in an orphanage had beaten the attention-seeker right out of me. Do what you have to, fight for what matters, and don’t back down from anyone, sure enough… but public speaking? Stepping out from the crowd, drawing every eye and sudden hushed whisper?

Not my idea of a party.

The Subtitles Behind Blood is Thicker Than Lots of Stuff

Posted on 2021-04-222021-04-21 by Chris Tullbane

This was originally going to be a post with some (mostly ridiculous) stats about Blood is Thicker Than Lots of Stuff, leading up to next week’s release. But I did just that for the last three books, and it’s starting to feel a little bit played out. So instead, I want to revisit a subject…
