Tentative Progress in the Success Department

$16.59 coming in September / October, from createspace.

about $5 coming in at kdp. Meeting goal of $20 in September or October (unexpectedly).

number of international sales in one month may be branching recently. Good sign for long-term progress.

sales might actually be going up! yay!

At least, they were in July and August.

If this seems loserly, compare it to my YouTube situation, where I have finally achieved '1 Like' besides me on my Successful Over-Unity experiment.

Earning $20 a month is major for a sometimes self-declared POET! (and male with big ears, hairy legs, and wide hips).

Author Status

Up to a sale every 1.73 days now that I've added my 7 Authorhouse sales this year.

But  reminder to my fans / readers: About the Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit: the Authorhouse edition is out-dated. If you are considering buying the Authorhouse edition, I recommend buying the CreateSpace Edition instead. It's listed in the book details on Amazon. The Authorhouse edition has one advantage: that it's slightly more durable. But it is missing many of the new features, including the new introduction and a lot of additional content and clarification.

200 Books Sold on Amazon Now

Counting e-books, I have now sold 200 books, including about 20 - 40 different titles.

This is after my last mark of 100 books sold sometime last year.

Also, I sold 10 e-books today, which is a record for me by far!

Progress as an author!

My many interesting titles can be found on my Amazon Author Profile.

At a group I'm a member of...

called Self-Published and Indie Authors Networking Group there was a recent post titled "Make this your year to shine"...

I guess I'm living the dream already, sort of...

I just have to get over my last bad review. I wrote a new introduction to compensate that title.

Book Sales

4 sales through expanded distribution (book stores), via my CreateSpace account.

According to this data, bookstores have sold:

2 Copies of How to Write Aphorisms,
1 Copy of Nathan Coppedge's Perpetual Motion Machine Designs & Theory, and
1 Copy of 1-Page-Classics.

Overall, including online sales and e-books, the following books are the most popular:

1. The Dimensional Philosopher's Toolkit (22 copies sold)
2. Nathan Coppedge's Perpetual Motion Machine Designs & Theory (20 copies sold).
3. How to Write Aphorisms (9 copies sold)

Even if these sales look disappointing, I'm doing at least 550% better than last year, so that's a good sign. At this rate, it might count as a career in four years ($87,500 / yr. at that point), assuming a 5X exponential curve.

However, for now, it's only about $140 / year reliably, thanks to my excellent publisher it's not even less.

You have to take into account that I've published 32 books, most of them this year, so:

A. There's a big popularity cushion, assuming people don't think I'm just braining myself.
B. I'm at the very minimum of potential exposure right now.

So, I don't want to call the four years to that much money conservative, but it does seem achievable in ideal conditions, by my estimates.

Meanwhile I may have proven over-unity! But that's another issue. 'Another issue' seems so cruel this way!

For those looking for my Amazon Profile, it can be found there. My e-books are now listed as $0 - $2.99 instead of the previous $4.99 ridiculousness. I have also updated several of my books (actually many of them) with new content.
