Monthly Recap: January 2024
TRANSPARENCYMONTHLY RECAP
January is in the books, and despite the usual 'post holiday sales slump' it was a decent month! So let's dive in.
On the sales front, the heavy lifting was done by my sales at Chattacon. Outside of that, I got a nice bump on Amazon Merch from Nick Saban retiring, and folks buying a lot of my Hail Saban pentagram shirts. Otherwise it was a pretty down month compared to December, but that's to be expected: holidays are when folks drop skrilla. I did add a new Patron on Patreon though! I am currently uploading a chapter a week of a horror novel, so it's a good time to jump on there if you have been considering it. Only 2 bucks a month!
On the social media front, I did better about being active on Discord, though still not great. Honestly, there are a few folks that I really only talk to on there, or I might consider just getting rid of it. I may anyway, I have other ways to talk with said folks, that is just the easiest. I'm avoiding making that call right now, as I am experiencing a period of low mood, and I am trying to do better about not making big choices during those periods. Things generally just grew a little, or stayed about the same, because I didn't really do anything all that different. So that's to be expected. I have some things I want to start doing, like some podcast/youtube content, but I need to be in a better headspace before I tackle that I think.
So yeah, nothing too dramatic, just another day in paradise.
