Have any of you folk promoted your ebooks on Kindle Select? What was your experience of it? Worthwhile?
I'm not sure that I like the idea of withdrawing a book from all other outlets but I'm wondering whether I should sell my soul and try it with Bunderlin

Personally I feel you have to look at your individual circumstances.
What sort of sales are you getting from each outlet?
Do you have more than one book available to buy?
If you only have one then you want get any knock-on effect of people trying your book and then deciding to buy your other books.
Only you can decide the pros and cons for your particular situation.

Very interesting, Patsy, that your publisher has withdrawn from Select.

However, I'm still not pulling out of KDP Select just yet anyway because of the other benefit - lending. So far this month I've lent 8 books. The average I get for a lend is $2.00, so I'm getting extra income from those. I haven't managed to sell anything through Smashwords and its other outlets (on my non-Select books) for 6 months, so Select is still the go for me.
