how many books I sell per year as a full time self-published author // 2023

[@storiesbydesirae]

Don't forget to applaud yourself for being able to keep up the book sales for 2023 like how it skyrocketed in 2022. Yes, it would've been nice to see it grow more, but it's amazing you were able to keep it that high. Yay for your learning years and now you feel you know the genres you want to write! I'm glad you're making writing fun for you again and not setting any deadlines! :)

I love these types of videos! I start daydreaming about the possibilities when I finally finish my first book project. 2024 is going to be the year of consistency for me.

Happy New Year! 🎉 Glad to see your books are majority of your income now! Best wishes in the New year to achieve all your goals. What I'm curious about, do you read other books that sell in same space as your own, self published in the same genres you write in? I remeber you did a video featuring books from your editing clients, any chance of doing it again? I also mentioned this in some comment last year, but have you considered joining some competitions? Particularly, SPFBO (Self-published fantasy blog-off run by Mark Lawrence) where I saw more fantasy romance and cozy fantasy partaking in the last two years, it starts around May every year, so if you are interested you can give it a look. In my opinion it is a good way to potentially get more exposure on the books. I've been following that competition for a few years and get self pub recs from there all the time. I got Marionettes on Kindle so I hope to read it soon myself 🎊🎉

Happy New Year!! I just realized who the author of "The Marionettes" !!! 😃 Wow, amazing journey, and what a transition. I'm so happy for you! ❤ and good luck with future writings.

Remember your stress about how TARY wasn’t selling and then it exploded?? Not that you will definitely get that again with BPL, but I know how much you like that book. It’ll find an audience, or maybe you’ll find the just RIGHT marketing angle to get it there ❤

[@emmaberger3748]

I would market your poetry books for free 😭😭 I love them ❤
