2024 Year End Report: Total Books Sold
TRANSPARENCYMILESTONEPLANNING

So, as anyone who has spent any time here knows, I like to be open and transparent on the numbers. I like to think that me doing so might help someone out, and I also hope that other folks will follow suit. The more information we have, the better our decision making will be and all that. Since the year is done, here is the next tally of how many books I have sold. When it comes to in person sales this number is as close to accurate as I can get it. I totaled up how many I have ordered, then subtracted what I have in inventory. I have given some away, so I would subtract that from the total number of in person books I have sold.
FAQ:
I don't want to read all this, so what is the Total number you have sold? 4,267 books sold (online and in person) with 369,328 in KU page reads (which equals roughly 1,275 books). I've given away 5,268 free digital copies.
Why do you sell so few of books 2-6 in person? Because I basically stopped taking them to events once I had my omnibus editions. I now only sell those online, or in a bundle of all 7 books I have out for 100 bucks.
Why do you sell so few of Southern Saudade? I joke that it's my unmarketable book (despite being my best book imo), so I am still figuring out how to market it.
