Today is the day! MISFORTUNE COOKIE is published globally, so let's make an April Fool of Amazon :-)
The idea is to spread the word far and wide to help get MISFORTUNE COOKIE into the Kindle bestseller list on Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.
If you’d like to help, please send this email to all your friends today, and ask them to do the same. The idea is to concentrate sales around the 1st.
Even a few sales in a short period of time on Amazon helps push the book up the rankings, making it more visible to other readers. So let’s see how powerful we are when we work together!

And did you know that one of the most important things that gets a book noticed on Amazon is the tagging? You can also help tremendously by going to the book on Amazon, and near the bottom of the page there’s a section called “Tags Customers Associate with This Product”. Clicking all of these tags pushes the book higher on the search pages when people look for any of those terms. This is probably one of the most important ways for readers to help get a book noticed, and is extremely helpful for writers!

If you don’t have a Kindle, you can download a free app at Amazon for Mac, iPhone/iPad, PC, Android, etc. Clever, eh?

About MISFORTUNE COOKIE:
“Following your heart will pay off in the near future”
The fortune cookie had spoken, affirming Hannah’s decision to move to Hong Kong to be with her boyfriend. She’s no stranger to rash decisions – after all she moved from the US to London on a dare, and that worked out, didn’t it? Ever the optimist, she’s determined to make a success of her move, no matter what anybody says.
Unfortunately, anybody seems to be everybody and her life isn’t going exactly to plan. Sure, she’s found a career in fashion that she loves, her best friend Stacy moved to be with her, and they’re exploring the weird and wonderful in Hong Kong. It’s her love life that’s not quite living up to expectations. It isn’t easy having a relationship with a boyfriend who’s been posted to a job in another country. Particularly one who seems a bit too cosy with his new boss.
When things also start going wrong at work, Hannah begins to think her friends and family were right. Has she made the worst mistake of her life?
