Indie author breaks 3 million in sales… and gives some sound advice

Barbara Freethy writes contemporary romance – and other kinds of romance novels. Granted, that is the best selling area in all of publishing, but she managed to sell over 3 million books in a little over 2 years! In an article on her website she gives the short version of her story, including a bit about how she managed such a feast. She doesn’t go into details and oh how I would love to know what she learned from “observing other successful authors and watching a ton of tutorials”! In any case, I love her closing words to fellow authors:

“I’ve learned a lot, and the most important thing is to keep writing books. New material always drives sales, much more than any number of amazing tweets or FB posts. Social media/promotion are important but only as an adjunct to the most important thing which is writing more books!”

Mazel tov!
