Indie Authors & Fans of Indie Books discussion

I have two contemporary romance books (a four part series) available for sale currently.

Book sizes are 5x8. Both are around 300 pages. The cost to print these books for amazon.com is $7.34.

I currently have them for sale at $7.99 leaving me to make only .39 per book.

I don't get a lot of paperback sales since I'm an indie author. Most of my sales are digital.

I've had four sales in the last day and I've made a whopping $1.70.

I've spend a lot of time & effort into making my covers, writing my books. etc... But, these books will be out there floating around forever.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
