We are planning our biggest sale yet, and we're looking for more fantasy authors to join in!
The Summer Solstice Sale will be from June 19th to 23rd, and we are looking for indie fantasy authors to list their ebooks for sale during the event. We recommend setting a sale price of 50% to 70% off.
Why a sale instead of just giving away the ebooks for free?
Because readers who get a free ebook often don't actually read the ebook in question. They might get 50 free ebooks during an event like "Stuff Your Kindle", but how many of those books will they actually read? The answer? Most likely zero.
Why?
It comes down to psychology. If a product is free, then it probably isn't very good. But if you have to pay money for it, then it is more valuable and people are more likely to read a book that they spent money on.
This is why we recommend that fantasy authors taking part in this event set a sale price that is 50% to 70% off. It is a large enough sale price to attract attention, the author is still making a reasonable amount off each sale, and it isn't so cheap that readers will think that the book must be bad.
Want to join the Summer Solstice Sale?
Email peasantmagazine@gmail.com with the following information:
- Author name.
- The name of your book(s) that will be on sale (or free) during June 19th to 23rd.
- The sale price for each book taking part in the sale.
- A promotional blurb about your book.

We will add your book(s) to ArcaneTomes.Org and include your book in our promos for the Summer Solstice Sale.
Note - We are only looking for indie authors. Traditionally published authors need not apply.
How can you help?
Tell your author friends about the Summer Solstice Sale. Tell your readers. Tell people on social media. Mention the sale on your blog, author website, etc.
What about Future Events?
If this event is successful we are hoping to create more events for the Autumn and Spring Equinoxes and the Winter Solstice.
Update
So far we have 14 books that will be included in the Summer Solstice Sale, but we are expecting many more as we get the word out.
