So book 4 is out now! And as always I am going to break down the numbers for you, to let you know how much it cost me to put out this book, especially in comparison to the others in the series.

Cover: 0.00

I made this cover! With the help of my LadyFriends more artistic eye for input, I was able to whip this up. As I already owned the font, that was not a needed expense this go round either.

Editing: 360.00

This is the same editor I have used for the last two books, and as always she did a fantastic job. She has gone up on her rates a little, but that was largely negated by me hiring her not on Fiverr this time. So I was able to cut down on some of those fees and such.

Ads: 0.00

Yeah, still not brave enough to waste my money on this yet. I keep meaning to take a class on this, but...it hasn't happened yet.

Total: 360.00

Math so simple even I can do it. So lets see how it compares!

Total cost to bring to market:

  • Book Four Total: 360.00

  • Book Three Total: 363.15

  • Book One: 470.20

  • Book Two: 450.73

  • Three Book Total: 1,644.08


I'm not gonna add the total sales and such just yet, because I need all the sales from the launch to roll in. But I am 99% sure I have now officially more than broken even for all books. I'm in the black!
