February is going to be a lean month in terms of book sales. And when I say lean, I mean “3 packs of ramen per week” lean. So far this month, I’ve managed to sell whopping 4 books for a total of $2.34 in commissions. Ouch!

Now, lest anyone worry, my husband is working, so thankfully we don’t have to live off my “earnings.” Still, even without depending on my writing income, the February figure is shocking.

Of course, much of it is probably due to the fact that I haven’t published anything new...
