And here i go again showing off how much of a noob i am.

I am trying to use one of my 5 'free' promo days in the kdp select program. When I select my book and click the 'Actions' then 'manage promotions' then 'NEW' a box comes up that asks for NAME and the DATE.

Okay, I read through the KDP faq and i know i am probably really sounding dumb here, but what am i supposed to put in the *NAME* box? my name or the book title? Sorry im just a little confused by it and i cant seem to find the answer in their faq.

You can put anything in there. It makes no difference. It's more of a tracker for you. You might call it promo 1 or first freebie. You can put your book name there if you want.

I had the same question when I first put my book up for free! Everything else about uploading a book to Kindle is very well explained, except this which is confusing for us newbies.

Anyway, there are no dumb questions. We're all in the same boat here!
