So, today I got my First Royalty Statement!
Yay!!!
The way my publisher does this is that the royalty periods run from January-June, and then July-December. So the royalty statement I got today shows how many books I’ve sold from January to June.
And it did pretty well! Thank you for buying copies!!!! :)
It’s broken down into USA, Canada, and “Foreign” sales—there were two foreign sales, not sure who those were, but THANK YOU! :) I can also see ebook sales—there were 44 of those.
You might not know this, but authors don’t get paid royalties until they’ve paid back their advance. I am almost halfway to that goal, so yay. THANK YOU! :) Once I pay back my advance, then I actually start getting royalty checks. (As in: MONEY.)
And that brings me to…..buying copies for Christmas gifts! :)
Lent starts February 17, 2021, so you could even buy a copy of the book as a Valentine’s Day present! (Come on, it’s a good idea!) But, buying for Christmas is also a good idea, because then you’re ready for Lent with Lenten reading! :)
So you can buy a copy, or you can email me for a signed copy. Those are $20 and include a prayer card, a book mark, and shipping!
I should get my next royalty statement in March, and hopefully I’ll have made even more progress toward the repayment of the advance! :)
So, thank you for buying my book and supporting my writing! I appreciate every book sold.
