A Fun Series

Ghost of a Chance Series…

I am just finishing up a book called The Deep Sunset: A Ghost of a Chance Novel.

The original titles on these things and complete lack of branding made these almost impossible to sell. So I renamed all the books and Allyson did a nifty series branding on these, sort of a take-off on the new Poker Boy covers, but not really.

I will go back at some point and redo the covers on Smith’s Monthly with these novels in them.

I love this new branding and it really gave me a boost to finish the novel I’ve been puttering along on and tonight I got within a few thousand words.

So thought I would show you this series. It is great fun. Ghosts helping people and working with Poker Boy at times to save the world. When Poker Boy is in one of the books, we put a little bug beside the series title saying “With Poker Boy.”

These are in series order but they can all be read as stand-alone novels. All are out, but some still have the older paper covers. And I think the Starter Bundle is just going live now. Click each cover to get to Amazon. We don’t have our new covers and universal links up on these yet. That’s coming soon.

In life, they both worked to help people. It seems that in the afterlife, their job continues.

The strangest crime-fighting ghost duo ever.

    Just a comment:

    Look at this list for the Lincoln Child books.

    Jeremy Logan Book Series (5 Books)
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/bookseries/B01N31E3XE/

    It is listed as for “Jeremy Logan” books, yet the first two books are stand alone and do not have Jeremy Logan in them. They basically have related them as similar in flavor to the Jeremy Logan books.

    So you don’t have to create a specific “series” to build your list. You can list books together to show similar styles or flavor that people might like. And since you are in control of those lists you can change them over time, because some people love to click on those lists to see what is related.

    When I look at the product page of a book, and see something like:

    – Book 1 of 5 in the Jeremy Logan Series

    I am compelled to click on that link and see what is there. HA!
