I admit it, my books are not selling.
Well not many anyway. On my latest novel ‘Bleak – The story of a shape shifter’ I’ve spent some money on promotion but it is not even coming close to paying for itself. I know this is common for self-published authors and I’ve ready many times that it can take five, seven or ten books before you finally start to see a return.
Am I disheartened?
Yes, well a little anyway. I’m not expecting to have that best seller, but it would be nice to sell a few more to cover those costs and maybe show some profit. And it’s not all about the money. I enjoy my writing and as an author I want people to read and appreciate my work. Those that have read my books tell me they have enjoyed them, even that they couldn’t put them down. I have had some positive reviews. All that’s great and tells me that I have something even if I’m not the finished article (If you ever are?).
