Monthly Recap: February 2024

TRANSPARENCYMONTHLY RECAP

3/1/20241 min read

Alrighty, February is behind us, so it's time for my monthly recap post! As always, I'm gonna be diving into the numbers behind my sales and socials!

On the sales front, all was well. The bulk came from Atlanta Comic Con, to the tune of exactly 700 bucks. But my online book sales were also pretty good. Especially when you consider I did no big marketing item, or book launch. The rest of my streams were about average: some up, some down, but overall I am pretty pleased there. This is gonna be the year I make some real moves on the game front, which should boost that I hope, in the long term. But nothing firm to announce just yet.

When it comes to social media, I had a nice bump in my Email List (30), from me inputting signups from conventions. I also added my 11th paid patron on patreon! If you aren't on there, you really are missing out. Tons of essays from the mind of Howard Marsh, all my old short stories that have been published, a bunch of flash fiction, and I am currently in the midst of uploading an entire (draft) novel. All for just 2 bucks. Outside of that, I really didn't do much in the way of promotion. I did attend an author event at a local library and made some good connections. I also did a speaking engagement with a college in GA virtually. But mostly I just stuck close to home as the LadyWife recovers from a planned surgery.
