I’ve officially sent in my first author interview, which I’m going to link to as soon as it goes live.  I’d like to say that it gets my personality across, but that includes my nervous jitteryness (I stand by this fake word).  Eh, it seems to work for some people and it’s my first attempt.

This brings me to Catalysts and The Pen Name.  I’m not sure what to do with these novellas.  They’re experiments that are still in the cover art stage, which is a stage that I might as well build a summer home in.  I’ve seen a lot of people put things like this up for KDP Select and mark them for free.  They’re ‘throwaways’ for lack of a better term, so their best use is probably to bring attention to me.  Maybe an eventual rise to .99 cents, but no higher than that.  It’s been suggested that I use the novellas to cushion long periods of time between books, so I have time because the first big gap will probably be between books 4 and 5.

Has anybody ever put a novella or short story up for free under KDP Select?  How did it do and did it help your other books?
