This story comes in at almost 11K words. Most of my other stories are around 5K words, and it's easy to take an hour or two and knock out an editing pass on them before publishing them. Since this story is twice as long as my others, it took a lot more work and it will be the first one I will be selling for more than .99¢ I will be selling this story for a whopping $1.99. Doing this made me rethink how much I might sell my 80K word novel for when it comes out.
eBook Pricing
This brings up a topic that's been on my mind a lot lately. It's a hot topic: eBook pricing. I was going to sell my 80K word upcoming novel for $2.99, but now I'm thinking I might sell it for $3.99. Here's my new breakdown:
- FREE - Around 2K words or less (loss leader for other stories) Flash Fiction/Short Story
- $0.99 - 7.5K words or less Short Story
- $1.99 - 7.5K to 20K words Novelette
- $2.99 - 25K - 50K words Novella
- $3.99 - 50K + words Novel
What do you think? Too much, not enough? Thanks for stopping by, I'd love to hear from you!
