2nd Quarter Book Sales

I find it hard to believe we are halfway through the year 2018, and that the second quarter has ended. My title remaining till retirement now stands at 5 months and 29 days. The closer it gets the more I’m looking forward to it.

But with the end of the second quarter it’s time to report book sales. They were definitely better than in the first quarter. Here’s the table.

Not the greatest quarter, but an improvement over the last.

After a first quarter of only 6 sales, the second quarter has 18. Ten of these were of my latest book, The Gutter Chronicles, Volume 2, which I published this quarter. Four more sales were of The Gutter Chronicles, Volume 1. So the second in the series dragged the first along, at least a little.

I created and made the cover for this one; so, if it doesn’t work, I’ll gladly take the blame.

During this quarter, I did almost no promotion. A couple of Facebook posts was it, along with an in-house e-mail to the company that told all that the second volume was available for pre-order. I did a little looking at Amazon ads, but wasn’t able to spend the time studying to know if it was right for me.

So, into a new quarter, still plugging along, though slower these days. Multi-tasking isn’t working very well for me. In a future post, maybe on Friday, I’ll talk about my current writing.
