We’re now six months into my social media experiment where I’m posting every day to see if it helps increase my book sales. This month I had the most success with my Instagram reels than ever before. I had three go viral, so today I’m going to talk about how this impacted sales. Let’s go over all my social media and book sales stats from the past thirty days together!

Only one more stretch goal to unlock after this!!!! And it’s character art, which is always everyone’s favorite! Share this post, or any of my posts, so we can get the final and BEST stretch goal unlocked! There’s only 24 hours left, so the COUNT IS ON!
Revenge in Rome is a fake-dating closed door romance set in Italy! It has all the banter and swoon without the spice, but plenty of petty revenge. It’s live NOW on Kickstarter for limited time!

Think of Kickstarter as a fun way of doing book pre-orders! Indie authors are often limited in the type of books they can print. If we want to do special editions, we have to invest a lot of money to do so, so Kickstarter allows us to crowdfund to create amazing editions of books!

Earlier this week, I did a book signing event with 60+ authors. Because this event was so big, it had a lot of potential, but with an event with this many authors…sometimes the market gets a little competitive. If you’re going to have 60+ authors, then you need a LOT of foot traffic at the event to sell books. So I was doubtful. But watch the book signing vlog to see how it went!

I asked on Instagram if you guys wanted to see a behind-the-scenes look at designing the special edition books for Kickstarter, and you all said YES! I couldn’t show the entire process because, well, it takes a long time to design, and I can’t sit in front of a camera all day. So instead, I settled on filming a super fun and busy day-in-the-life video to show you how I fit work into my schedule with two kids. And of course, I’ll give you a look at how I designed my books!
