Thanks so much for reading and commenting. I decided to self-publish a collection of short stories recently. Sales have been really slow though. I read that paid marketing doesn’t really work very well until you have 5–10 self-published books out there. I have enough material for 3–4 short story collections and I have a novel that needs a pro edit, but I can have that out by June. I’ll make one of the short story collections permafree and add a cta. Hopefully, that will start generating more sales by next year. It seems like it is an uphill climb whether you self or traditionally publish these days.
