Milestone: 2 Million Books Sold & A Few Tips
Here is her post when she hit 1 million a couple of months ago.
Milestone: A Million + Books Sold and Counting
Read what she has to say... some of her current bestsellers B-O-M-B-E-D when they were first published... This is why fiction and a strong front list of books is key... Also, she is meeting her readers' expectations.
She had a slow start in 2011, then hit 100k books sold by Jan 2013, 1 million by May/June 2013 and 2 million by July/August 2013.
QUOTE -
My first month of publishing March 2011, I sold 20+ books
My second month 200+
In Jan 2013 I passed 100,000 books sold total
Total number of published works: 37 (about 1/2 novellas, 1/2 novels)
Main marketing tool: Facebook
END QUOTE
She is writing in a new H-O-T sub-genre, but there are plenty of indie *mid-listers* writing more in less hot sub-niches and passing the 1 million in royalties...
