If you’re looking for a book that’s going to take you several days or more to get through, How I Make a Decent Living Writing Fiction isn’t the book for you. If you’re looking for tips from someone who actually does make a decent income from writing fiction, maybe my experience can help you.
While I have yet to reach my target level of success, I'm still paying the bills with my writing income. All of my bills. And it's providing some of the luxuries in life, too.
If that sounds like something you could live with, check it out. Maybe some of the things I do will work for you, too.
My review:
This is one writer's story of how she makes enough money from writing romance novels to pay all of her bills. If you are new to the self-publishing world, this book contains a lot of great advice. If you are familiar with the indie world and been around "book people," you may already know many of these tips, but this book is still a good read because it gives you a sense of hope and shows you that it can be done. Kristy K. James has written a great little piece that gives it to you straight. I highly recommend reading How I Make a Decent Income Writing Fiction to any new writers or even already published indie authors.
I picked this up during a free promotion on Amazon. I was not required to write a review.
About the author:
Kristy K. James' first goal in life was to work in law enforcement,
until the night she called the police to check out a scary noise in her
yard. Realizing that she might someday have to investigate scary noises
in yards just as dark as hers if she continued on that path, she turned
to her other favorite love...writing. Since then her days have been
filled with being a mom and reluctant zookeeper (7 pets), creating
stories, and looking for trouble in her kitchen.
