My next novel, Panhandlers, will be released October 15th and as I did with my first release, went to Goodreads to set up a giveaway. Goodreads now charges authors to give their book away for free. And they charge a lot. $199 is the cheapest. Don’t understand how that is beneficial. Instead I’ll run my own giveaway. To enter: go to my Facebook page and like it if you haven’t. Pinned to the top of the timeline, you’ll see a contest post. Follow the instructions and hopefully you’ll win! If not, you can always purchase it on Amazon.
Good luck
Perhaps Goodreads is trying to tell people that they don’t want them giving away their books………

Yeah or they would like to make money off authors who are desperate to have people read their work. It’s a bummer. It was a good program to help unknown authors get their name out to potential readers. I know I’m not going to spend $100 for me to give away one book. That’s an odd business proposal.
