Thanks!
i HATE zutara
A lot of people do 😂 I never even gave them a thought until someone pointed out that my waterbender and firebender inspired by Hades and Persephone gave Zutara vibes, and I was like... maybe it's not so bad. But that's just me. To each their own.
“His breasts grew ragged.” 😂 This is why we double check the editor instead of clicking every change through. 😅 At least you caught it!
Always double check 🤣
They read at work. Lol. Some ppl have that downtime at work. I did when I worked nights.
Lol that's a good assumption!
OMG I loved watching this! I could watch designers create book covers all day 😍
Thank you!
is the 'morally grey' abuse or is it actually good 😢
No SA involved, he just lies to people close to him and injures people who disrespect his queen
#Morallygrey but a golden retriever #bookboyfriend 🫶🏻 #bookrecs
#fantasybooks for #readers who like #morallygrey with a heart of gold
It's good, trust me. I didn't think of him as morally grey, just misunderstood
@@TamarNajarian You don't have to trust me, that's okay. I'm not offended if you don't want to read it because of some marketing buzz words.
I thought it did already I keep hearing it being talked about
That's probably Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J Maas 😅 The woes of having very on-genre titles 🙃 My series is interconnected, though, so the titles all bleed into each other. Kingdom of Ash & Shadow, then Kingdom of Shadow & Ice, so on.
Me need
Linked in the video description 🫶 Happy reading!
Where's your book sold? This already has me intrigued, also absolutely love the cover art.
Thank you! It's on Amazon and KU (also linked in the video description) 😊
I've been watching your videos for a bit and love them! They've been really inspiring as I try to figure out my RUclips style and niche. I too have a "trash pile" of videos that I should release.
Thank you!! I know it's SO hard to niche down 😅
the Almighty Algorithm keeps feeding me these Girlie-Romance Novels, but Im not a girl. Try Science Fiction Algorithm! (I could stand a little Romance if there was some Hard Science in thete...)
I hope you get to the right side of the algorithm!! If it helps, it’s not ALL romance, but not really science, just magic 😅
Excuse me!?!!?😳
Happy reading 😁
LOVE THIS 😍
Thank you 😊
that quality looks amazing not gonna lie
Thank you 😊
@@itslindseeey no problem
Appreciate your openness in sharing this. Hope the read through from your free offer is successful!
Thank you so much 🫶
I've heard a few indies set their books for free and saw a spike in their backlist sales! ❤ Hopefully, your read-through rate in August is everything you dreamed it would be! 🫶🏾
It definitely helps! Thank you 🫶
Congratulations on moving all of this forward, managing all aspects of writing and publishing is not easy and you’re smashing it - truly an inspiration! 👊
Thank you so much, that's so sweet 🫶
OMG I've been waiting for this video from you! I love hearing about your monthly income because while I love the big authortubers, I really can't relate lol I write poetry so my sales are always slow going, but I hope this slump is due to readers waiting for that third book and not because you slowed down on marketing. That's one of my biggest fears, and then I burn myself out marketing and not writing haha. Best of luck for August sales!!
OMG thank you! It's so hard to know exactly what's affecting sales, but I guess we'll see if August is any better. Any kind of burnout sucks, but I especially hate it when you get so burnt out on marketing that you don't even want to write 😅
I can't stress how perfect the timing of this is! 😅 I was on a 3hr call with another writer just tossing critiques back and forth and gushing over our books 🙌🏾 It didn't click that we've been each other's beta readers until now, omg 😂 I'm gonna call him out on it next time we talk!
Oh my gosh I absolutely love that!!
Ooooh this is good. I’ve been meaning to ask a few friends to read the first bit of my wip but I don’t want to just toss 15,000 words at them and say “have fun! let me know what you think!” Super applicable, thanks Lindsey!
I'm glad it came at a good time!
Avatar the last air bender vibes
Totally!
Congratulations!!! I love seeing this for RUclipsrs who are willing to take the chances you did and put the work in that you did. All that hardwork is paying off. Wishing you absolute success from this point. Next step is monetization for you. Sounds like that is not too far for you
Thank you so much!!
@@itslindseeey you’re very welcome ☺️
I’ve been following since your first income video! You have such a fun and natural personality on camera. It’s like FaceTiming with a friend 😊 I’m on the cusp of 500 subscribers! I agree with @codythewriter (hi Cody!) that it has helped me reach so many new writer friends, which was my whole goal all along. I have no idea if this’ll work, BUT maybe you could do an “all about my books” video to try and sell people on it???
Oh my gosh, thank you! I just subscribed, I'm totally gonna watch your videos! 🫶 Girl, you read my mind, I was thinking about doing a video exactly like that and reading some parts and talking about the plots and inspiration and stuff. I think Shorts has helped sell a few so I wanna keep doing some fun little videos too.
I’m right at the edge of 500 subscribers and have been toying with the idea of making the video. We’ll see! I definitely do appreciate the community aspect of RUclips. I’ve been doing the thing off and on for about 4-5 years now and it’s fun to see whose still here, whose off and on like me, etc. I don’t think there are any massive ways that RUclips has changed anything for me- minus the community aspect. Which in itself is a pretty big thing.
Right!? It doesn't feel very massive, but maybe we'll look back one day and say it was actually sort of pivotal, I don't know 😂
Seeing you get emotional was oddly wholesome 🥺 Your income & marketing videos have been super helpful, so I wouldn't be surprised if you doubled your subscriber count by end of year! 🩷 The _need_ to make internet friends is sooooo real 😅 I'm in the middle of scripting my first authortube video, so I'd love to connect before it goes live next week! 😅 I've only posted some IG Reels on my channel (because I _hated_ showing my face online until pretty recently), but I think it gives an idea of what my channel is geared towards 🫶🏾
Thank you 🫶 I just subscribed, I'd love to connect! I think having some Reels up is a great start, and I'm excited to see you post your first video!
@@itslindseeey ahh, thank you! 🥹
Hi! I am a small writing channel, and I just passed 500 subs this week! (AHHHH!!!) The whole reason I started was to make writing friends and I have absolutely been able to do that. I agree that a majority of the people on here are so kind and supportive, and I love getting to interact with people that watch my content. As far as the live streaming stuff, I go live pretty often on my channel, and I just use my webcam. I don't use my "fancy" camera for those. Most of the time if someone is watching a live, they are just looking to interact with you in real time and aren't worried as much about the video quality! Congrats on the rapid growth your channel is seeing! :) P.S. I love your money videos! As someone who wants to self-publish, your realistic look into what those earnings are like has been SUPER helpful!
OMG congrats!! I just subbed so now you'll have another one 🫶 Thanks for the advice on lives, and I'm so glad my content has been helpful!
So much good and relatable commentary in this video! ❤ I will definitely be looking forward to seeing what comes out of your “trash pile” lol 😂
Awww thank you friend 💖
I hope to publish my first book this month Aug 2024
That's so exciting!! I wish you the best of luck!
Looking good! 😌🩷
Thank you! 😊
Comments! Beautiful cover, love it. We've been semi-ironically listening to Creed at work for the past two weeks, so people are going to get a laugh out of this version. You look WAY proud of the fact that you're a graphic designer. This is charming but hilarious. Have a fantastic week.
Thanks! I un-ironically love this version of the song 😂
Are your books spicy because they sound good but I’ve been trying to get away from the spice
They are a bit, sorry 🙃
I do like them very much!
@@itslindseeey that’s okay
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I had to do multiple searches to find your book on the uk amazon store. I'm not sure if this is something you have control over but it could be affecting your sales outside of the US.
I don't know if I have much control over that, but it's something I'll be looking into. Thanks for letting me know!
The books sound interesting! Also, your approach that you are transparent regarding your sales is very refreshing and I think that you are on a very good way. I have just sold 3 books this month (published one book) and it's an inspiration and motivation to see that it is possible as an indie author to sell more. xoxo
Thank you! I had no idea how much to expect to make, so I love sharing the whole journey from the start. Congrats on publishing your book and on making sales!
It's super exciting!!! I have one ordered from Netherlands and another from Germany, and I'm super excited!
That's so exciting!
that's great! among the millions of books... to be noticed is truly a blessing.
It seriously is, I'm so grateful that anyone would ever pick up my books 🫶🏼
Can I ask how you figured out the pricing for your book? Great video❤
I publish through Amazon's KDP, and they give a minimum listing price based on printing costs, and then I add on a couple dollars so I make about $2-$4 per printed book, depending on page count and whatnot. For ebooks, I just want to keep it for sure under $5, but try to get roughly the same profit.
Yay, I'm so happy for you! 🥹 Each month seems to be closer to a livable-ish income 🫶🏾
If only I could make that in a week, then it would be mostly livable 😂 I think one day I'll get there. But I soooo appreciate the love and encouragement!! 🫶🏼
❤❤❤

So I agree with a lot of what you’re saying in this video. I do have a question, I enjoy the short form videos on social media but the growth on my social media accounts have not grown in years. A lot of my posts are not receiving engagement. The analytics show that my posts are not reaching less than 10 people on each social platforms (IG and Twitter specifically). It can feel like my work is getting thrown out the algorithm. I’m under the belief that I may be shadowbanned. What are your thoughts when you are faced with these challenges as an indie creator?
I find Instagram growth extremely difficult unless you’re using reels. I was on Instagram for years and was posting photos and carousels with barely any growth or engagement. But they’ve really been pushing reels for the last couple of years, trying to compete with TikTok. I don’t really use twitter but I have an indie author friend who’s found some success by engaging with other author accounts who will share posts and making sure the links you’re using are affiliate links if you’re published through Amazon. When it comes to marketing, it’s all about pivoting until you find something that works. Algorithms are always changing, but we have to remember that we’re trying to reach and connect with real people.
@@itslindseeey notes taken. thank you for sharing this!
The joys of being indie 😮❤ I love the sword detail!
I love being indie 😊 And thank you!
Damn it, now I need to read them just to see who won 😂
That's what the third book is for 😂
@@itslindseeey well then, that's my next few reads planned ☺️ I've already found the first one.
I hope you enjoy them 🫶🏻
Could you do a video on how to get reviews?
I'd love to make a video on this!
It sounds like you're killing it. I published my first book, mystery action, in Jan. this year. In my my total KDP payout will come to $23.49. Far below the ad spend.
Thanks, I appreciate it! Congrats on your debut!

Me trying to follow a 5 step tutorial on photoshop and failing:
Dude photoshop takes sooo much time to learn. I probably don't even know half of what I could
The freckle filter 💀
The red-haired one looks like Kallmekris.😂 they look wonderful by the way.❤
LOL I love that for her. Thank you! 😊
And then there's artist that can draw at this detail using less than 10 layers. I wish 💀
I mean I could merge the layers that are all shadows or all in the same area but where would the fun be in that? 😂
