My first Stuff Your Kindle event was a huge success. The House Between Two Lies had 1,500+ downloads, reached #89 Free in the Kindle Store, #1 in Domestic Thrillers, #3 in Horror Suspense, and #4 in Psychological Thrillers. As a new indie author, the exposure was incredible. I’d absolutely participate again.
