Ron Vitale is a fantasy and science fiction author. He has a Master’s degree in English Literature from Villanova University where he studied the works of Alice Walker and Margaret Atwood, interpreting their novels with a psychological Jungian approach by showing how the central female protagonists in their novels use storytelling as a means to heal themselves from trauma. He lives in a small town outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

In the fall of 2008, he published his fantasy novel Dorothea’s Song as an audiobook on Podiobooks and for sale in the Amazon.com Kindle store, and in 2011 he published Lost, the first book in the Cinderella’s Secret Witch Diaries series, in 2012 the second book in the series, Stolen, was published and in 2014

What I Learned about Indie Publishing in 2024 (Full Sales and Expenses Report)

I almost didn’t do a 2024 wrap up because of how poorly I did this year. But I changed my mind as I thought it would give me an opportunity to set my 2025 goals and also help others.

If you’re new to my year-end wrap ups, I invite you to go through all my past ones. It’s a lot of reading, but you’ll see all my ups and downs over the last 13 years.

Past Wrap Ups

Quotes by Ron Vitale  (?)

“I believe that my heart is true and that I have not yet lost my way, for I remember what I still want out of life.”
Ron Vitale, Lost

“I fell asleep then and never heard the ending to the story. In the morning, my mother was dead. The physician said she had passed in her sleep from the fever that we both had fought against the whole week.”
Ron Vitale, Lost

“I have traveled long and far, losing my way looking for acceptance in others, whereas I only need to accept and love myself. No one else could rescue me. Only I have such power.”
Ron Vitale, Lost
