My sequel to Amazon best-selling, 10-time award winning, "Baby Dragon's Big Sneeze" finally got some recognition of its own. "Baby Dragon Finds His Family" recently made the short list for their 2024 Grand Prize. More than 2,500 authors in a variety of genres competed for this honor and this book was among 130 books under serious contention to win the entire competition and a nice, $5,000 grand prize. Although I did not win the grand prize, having my second book I ever wrote come that close was a true honor.

Do any of my author friends know of book contests to enter that offer prize money? My first book got 10 national/international awards including 4 first place wins but no prize money from any of them. So, for my second book, I want to focus on entering contests that offer prize money. Any suggestions?

Hi ,

I just finished my live interview on the podcast Carolyn's Corner! It was really a fun, vibrant discussion with listeners commenting along the way. Feel free to give it a listen.

We talked about the advantages of self-publishing versus traditional publishing and how helpful April Cox of Self-Publishing Made Simple was in mentoring me on my publishing journey. Of course, we discussed the plots of both of my award-winning, best-selling rhyming children's picture books, "Baby Dragon's Big Sneeze and the sequel, "Baby Dragon Finds His Family." We also talked about how my books are available on Amazon, the Target website, the Wal-Mart Website and the Barnes & Noble website, but that they are cheaper and you can also get 10 free coloring pages if you order my books on my website, http://www.be-kindpublishing.com.

Please someone tell me how to change my MONTHLY ad spend in KDP. I know where and how to change my daily spends. I once found an area where I can create and manipulate how much I spend per MONTH on Amazon ads in KDP. I have never been able to find this area again.

I have published two rhyming children's picture books and want to start doing school visits. Of course I plan to read and discuss my books with the kids and give them free coloring pages and branded bookmarks. Any other tips for successful school visits? Ideas for activities to do with the kids? Ideas to increase book sales for these visits? How much do you all charge per visit? How long are you working with a particular age group? E.g. 1 hour for kindergarteners?

Hi friends,

Great news! My sequel to the six award-winning "Baby Dragon's Big Sneeze" just published today on Amazon. The book makes a great stocking stuffer for the holidays!

Right now, the eBook/Kindle version is free. I am doing this intentionally for a couple of weeks to get as many verified "purchase" reviews as possible, as soon as possible. So, since the eBook is free, I would like to ask that you all click on it and "purchase" it for $0.00. Then, approximately 20-30 minutes later, please please review the book--not only with (hopefully five) stars but with actual words in a typed review.

Here is the link to "purchase" the free eBook or to buy the paperback. It will take a few weeks for the hard cover to become available. https://www.amazon.com/Baby-Dragon-Finds-His-Family-ebook/dp/B0CLQPNHY7/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3HL0JF0USHTQ0&keywords=Baby+Dragon+Finds+His+Family&qid=1698268625&sprefix=baby+dragon+finds+his+family%2Caps%2C447&sr=8-1
