About Me: My name is Sarra Cannon, and I've been indie publishing since 2010. In that time, I have published 22 books and sold well over half a million copies.

I've made some mistakes along the way, but I've also learned some valuable lessons that I think will help you reach your goals. I can't wait to help you learn to make money writing what you love.

I just looked up some stats about self-publishing. The average yearly income is $1000-$5000. And most authors sell 2.3 books. So. This is a relevant video.

I've had a story I have been writing and neglecting for 3 years but with Nanowrimo in progress, I have decided to finish it this month and also to finish the second book in the series. Your videos have been very helpful as I plan to self publish.

Great tips. I would eventually like to write in more than one genre. Womens fiction, Rom-Com and Cozy Mystery. I have been working on a revision of a novel idea from a manuscript I wrote this past summer. I was planning a series but I'm changing it into three shorter stories and offering it as a free box set. I also have an idea for three holiday themed short stories that will complete my 2023 writing goals. Building a back list is very much my overall goal for 2024.

I started off writing in three different genres, and wish I had used a different pen name for each. Starting a new series next year with a completely different name - learned the hard way! I do have readers who read everything I write, which is wonderful, but I know I'm missing out.

I appreciate all of your honesty and insight. Thank you so much.

Finally sitting down and creating a strategy helped see an overview of what really needed to be done. It also helped when I started really watching other strategies and pulling bits and pieces from that to build my own.

Thank you Sarra! I enjoy your videos, and yes... focus on the main thing. It's something I need to remind myself over and over again. Great job.

Diving into your playlist ☺️. Thank you for all the amazing content! I’m sure I missed it, but do you sale your books in print or just ebooks?

[TheBookTowers]

Great advice! I’m not a book writer but I am starting a blog and have been so confused as to where to start and your right, it’s so easy to follow every bit of advice you read. Try one thing at a time and see how it goes 💕💕💕

I enjoyed these tips. I finished my manuscript not too long ago...and pending a review (and searching for a critic) i want to self publish.
