'It's easy," they said, those nice people over at Indies Unlimited. (Yes, I'm talking to you Kat Brooks!) You can just post monetised links to anyone's books on your own blog and earn money when there are sales. Yeah, right.
OK, I've had a stiff coffee, my head is as clear as it's gonna be - let's DO this!
First step is to upload the cover of Vicky's book. That's easy enough.
Then I embed the code that I copied from her book via my Amazon Associates page so if anyone follows the link to her book from here and buys it, I'll get a tiny percentage of the sale. I think I've done that right but I won't know till I publish this post.
Stand by caller...

All right - cover me, I'm going to publish this page and see if it works!
Sometimes being an indie author is a lot harder than it looks.
PS. Ok, I think I made it work! Turns out I didn't need to post the cover photo at all - the code I copied held all that info and clicking on that image took me to the right place.
So if all you lovely readers out there would click on Vicky's book and GO BUY A COPY that'd be great! I get a few cents, Vicky gets a few more, and you get a few hours of thoroughly enjoyable reading. Win-win!
