I started writing a blog post about everything I've learned selling 100,000 self-published books. I'm nearly 25,000 words in, so I guess I'm writing a book instead!

  • Part 1: Taming randomness, Assessing the market of a book idea, and Writing titles that sell (~5,700 words)
  • Part 2: Book covers; Testing titles, subtitles, and covers; Interior design; Sales blurbs (~4,500 words)
  • Part 3: Samples that sell, Reader reviews, Reader blurbs, Editorial reviews, Avoiding scams, Forewords (~4,500 words)

  • Part 6: Advertising (~6,900 words)

Each Part will be delivered to your email address when it becomes available, and include a link to a Google Doc on which you can ask questions about the text, and provide feedback.

You'll also receive the First Edition ebook. This likely won't be available to the public until late August or early September, so this is your chance to get early access to this information, and ask questions that will shape the book.

Thanks for helping me sell 100,000 self-published books, and for being a part of this new book!
