Hey guys. I've been on this site quite a few times. I've read the guidelines about promoting work, and that's not why I'm writing this. I'm in a jam. Ever since December of 2007, I've been working on a trilogy entitled "Dwellers of the Night"; it's a horror trilogy that is a cross between I Am Legend and Dawn of the Dead, but it has a lot of philosophical themes, and it tends to be Naturalistic and Nihilistic in nature.
Here's my problem. I published "Dwellers of the Night: Book One" through a publishing company. It's available on Amazon.com. It's been there for about two months, and I've only sold a few copies--two, to be exact. Needless to say, it's quite discouraging, especially when I am halfway done with Book Two and seeing no reason to finish it.
Does anyone have any advice on how to get the word about my trilogy out there? Would anyone be willing to look at the manuscript--I will send it for free as PDF or Word document, if you want--and give me some advice on what needs to be changed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
