The Big Isssue

 Amazon or Draft2Digital?

A new Profile
As I progress with my WIP projects this month, I face a dilemma. I aim to change my Draft2Digital page, I made a mess of the old one. The question is should I add more of the projects to my Amazon page.

The pros
Amazon is a more visible site than Draft2Digital.
Draft2Digital is more of a bookstore than Amazon.

The cons
Amazon being a larger store it is harder to sell on, unless you have a name people recognise, that is the "rub," the only way to get known is by selling.
Draft2Digital partake in the lending library system. This system allows readers to download books for a fee from a library, the library pays D2D for the service. But, unless the book sells many copies, the writer sees no royalties for the sales. I know this from personal experience as I was asked if I was going to write a sequel to two of my short story selection, which according to my sales record had NOT sold.
Either way, it doesn't matter as I need to make a smoother profile page.
