Lol thanks @bros1234 I will definitely do the 2.99 for upcoming books. Optimize... Oh ok. Will have to figure that out. Along with what categories to choose from because I didn't see too many relevant options.

I'm happy with the last title.. It got up to 8,000 BSR the past week. Thank goodness all those novel reading is starting to pay off... Maybe in big bucks soon... Yippeee \o/

Also bro could you remove the link from your quotes reply. Because I'm taking out links as much as possible after a few hours. Thanks

UPDATE:

This is my 3rd month in publishing in Amazon Kindle. Here is my updates so far.

Total books: 20
Niche: My Personal Passion

Month 1 (Aug) - $110
Month 2 (Sep) - $359
Month 3 (Oct) - $478

OCTOBER BREAKDOWN

CreateSpace (US Marketplace) - $70.30
CreateSpace (UK Marketplace) - #8.33

KDP -US - $348.75
KDP - UK - #52.34

I ignored adding up the other ones and also counted the pounds as dollars, so that I don't exaggerate anything. So add the createspace earning and KDP earning, you'll get my calculation for Oct.



LESSONS

I have now proved that this works. It's now time to scale up into other niches. I have also improved my writing speed and skills so much that I can now write 5-6000 words per day.

If you are still sitting on the fence, come on and give this business a chance. My major reason for considering this business model is that you can keep earning from these books for life. No more work on your part. Isnt that great?

I hope I have motivated someone. I don't know if I will share further earning proof. I may or may not.

Finally, I got one of my books ready in hard copy through createspace. Let's see how it goes. I'm thinking of putting all 14 books into hard copies too. Just leaning.
pls can you explain the format used in delivering the books.

@bros1234

Those figures look inspiring. With 20 books out it's good to see that readers are interested enough to buy copies daily. That Createspace... Will jump on it soon.

My strengths lie with KENP reads which will average 25,000 pages read in October. I'm picturing what it will look like if I had 20 or even 10 books on sale... Whew. Got to get to work work work work.

WOW!

You are doing absolutely well out there. I am following you bumper to bumper. I get your book alerts, when you make edits and releases. Your BSR shows you wont earn anything less than $500 per month. You're really in charge in that romance fiction. Wish I could write fiction like you do.

Keep it going sis.

I was just testing the waters in this business by just writing on things I know very well and do. Now it's time to venture into other niches and really get started...

I really love fiction and have a lot I've already written and just need to polish to suit the standards of the market. Thanks for the feedback and motivation. I didn't know you could get notified like that and I appreciate it really.

@miissy its a yearly challenge where you have to write a fifty thousand word novel in thirty days. Takes place every November. Although there are prizes to be won, the focus is more on creativity. Whether you can push your self to do that in such a time. Helps build your writing skill. The idea is that if you write 1670 words daily, you will have a 50000 word book by 30th November.

Amazon does not penalize for linking to your books. How else would people promote their books? What Amazon penalizes for is including excerpts of your books in other websites and this condition is only for books enrolled in Kindle Unlimited.

Whew thanks for that. Wanted to include an excerpt of my book on Wattpad. That was close

Do you need a ghost writer for your books? Or do you mean you are interested in ghost writing? If you need me to handle some ghost writing for you come January then no probs.

I mean that I am interested in Ghostwriting. How did you get ur first client and where? Fiverr?

At least I can now do other things and work on Amazon gradually since it will bring in small change monthly on autopilot henceforth. At least 5 sales drop in every day. So I have to do other stuff. Waiting.
