[stylist] Question for Smashwords Authors

[April Brown]

I am not sure I completely understand your question.

Are you wanting to make the book permanently free?

Or temporarily? 


If you are using the coupon option - you must first create the coupon for the book by clicking generate coupon.  

At the bottom - after pricing and percentages, is a microscopic box to click to make the coupon public.  That only means it is only on the Smashwords store itself.  And, a coupon can only be used for up to five years before it must be renewed.  Working with those date fields can be a challenge.

I still use my couple of degrees of vision for publishing. I can only use VoiceOver with a braille display.  Sorry I can't help you find it that way.
