Rebranding Kim Smith, Author

The hunt for something new has begun! I know you are here hoping to find a story that’s ripped from the headlines, but today isn’t going to be that. Instead, I am going to talk about me, my books, and this site. Because we may all be gone soon. Gone in our present form anyway. And no, I am not dying yet.

Ebook series: A good landing page

Do you have an effective sales page for your ebook? You can have the perfect item on the Internet, but if you are ignorant about peddling it, you’re going to be disheartened at the outcome.
