Are you a best selling author, because you have a large social media following
As an author/writer, having a large social media, does not mean that you are a best selling author.
Does not mean your book is an excellent read.
As for myself, I do not have a large following.
I do not have celebrity status, in which my book would sell overnight and become a blockbuster movie. I am a author/writer that believe in my writing and the passion for telling a story.
All authors/writers believe that their own book is the best thing that have ever been published.
Great news!
You should believe that your book is #1 best seller; because you have something to share. Even if your book touches one person; your a best seller.

Stay Encourage
Do you ever feel like giving up?
Well I'm here to tell you a little secret that keeps me motivated.
I was once told, "No one is going to buy a black girl book". "You're going to be writer"? "Who told you that you can write"? "You're not a part of any major book club; you do not have a large following on social media and you want to become a author"? "You should change your book cover"? "Do you have a celebrity who can endorse your book"?
If I would have listen to the "nay sayers", I would have never stepped out on faith and completed my trilogy series first book titled, "Caustic".
I have went to book events, and only sold two books, and I have went to events and sold fifty books. I am encouraged by the readers and those who are willing to be engulfed in the characters that I have written about.
Stay encourage and follow your passion. You have the tenacity of courage; so encourage yourself.
