You have to send an email to admin@iasfa.org with the changes and the admin team (Craig or Julia) will update your listing. No, this isn’t the most efficient, but where the listings reside on the site requires admin access to dig into the listings and admin for one is admin for all. Someone will ill intent…Read more

You’ve talked yourself around in a hard circle and we still don’t have a BookFunnel link from you. I don’t know what else to tell you.

Please keep in mind that you cannot collect email addresses as part of the BookFunnel download page when participating in an IASFA promotion.

We’ll restore the books, but manually remove the tags for the promotion. That will restore you in the Author Index.

We did check out your two titles, but neither of them were free, so we shifted them both to draft status so they did not show in the promotion when we sent the newsletter. If readers come across books that aren’t free when they are responding to a free promotion, then they leave and never come…Read more

We’re not sure what’s causing it. After about ten seconds of spinning wheel of doom, go to this link and see if your book is uploaded – https://iasfa.org/author-index/. You’ll find that it has uploaded. As for what your book is uploaded for, in the author index, when you see the book you want to…Read more

I have three different series in the works for the German market. The first is my action-adventure, a light thriller that has done really well. Having four books translated has worked. My science fiction are a little slower out of the blocks, but those were less expensive to…Read more

And for what it’s worth, I’m going to cancel this paid bundle. We’re not getting what I wanted out of the applications and I suspect sales will be obscenely low and waste everyone’s time.

To be a member of this group, you are supposed to have already published something in the SFF genre. If not, you can stay but get to it. Get that book written and show us that you belong here.

The challenge is if your book takes off. Pay $3k now and then earn out over time, but if your book sells $100k worth, then you just paid your narrator $50k. That being said, it’s more likely that the book…Read more
