STEAL THIS PROMPT TO CREATE YOUR IMAGE AND SHARE IT IN THE COMMENTS! Create a realistic, high-quality scene of [ATTACHED IMAGE] as a successful published author. They are sitting confidently behind a table at a book signing or author event, smiling proudly. On the table in front of them is their published book titled '[BOOK TITLE]' standing upright and clearly visible. Multiple copies of the book are neatly displayed around it. The author is holding a large Amazon royalty check in their hand showing '$[ROYALTY AMOUNT]' as the payout amount. The check should look professional and celebratory. Their facial expression shows pride, accomplishment, gratitude, and excitement after achieving success as an author. Include subtle details of success in the background such as conference attendees, bookshelves, author branding, people waiting in line, or banners celebrating the book launch. Cinematic lighting, realistic details, inspirational atmosphere, professional photography style. ----------------------------------------------------------- PS - If you noticed I changed my profile picture that is because I had our amazing community member @Cristal Vancarson give me some fresh headshots virtually. She only charges $50 for a session where you get on a zoom call and she guides you through posing for the headshots. You don't even need to leave your house or put make up on she does the work of enhancing your photos for you. If you are interested in updating your headshot checkout her work!

@Krista Brea My big reading rule is to read 10 pages a day. I share my 10 reading rules in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uh0MyAUXqiY&t=29s

Just one request so this stays valuable for everyone. šŸ‘‰ 1 RULE: If you share something, please also leave a thoughtful or helpful comment on someone else’s post.

The Most Addicting Part of Self-Publishing
Checking your royalties can be so addicting šŸ˜… Even though I haven’t published any new books in a while, I still check my royalties every single day. I have ads running and books still working in the background, so it’s always interesting to wake up and see money coming in while I sleep. One thing I’ve noticed is how much sales can fluctuate from day to day. You might see $25 one day and then suddenly $125 the next. Sometimes there’s an obvious reason, and sometimes Amazon just likes to keep us guessing. This is why I always remind people not to panic over a slow day. Trends matter more than individual days. For those of you who already have books published: What sales patterns or trends have you noticed? Are weekends better? Certain seasons? Ad changes? I’d love to hear your takeaways šŸ‘‡

I finally got my first email from Amazon about my first payout... which is exciting. It was a long 60 days. It gives me the momentum I need to work on my goal to finish the next journal and childrens book.
Progress Comes From Action šŸ“ššŸ”„
šŸ”„You get out what you put in. I wanted to take a few minutes to recognize some community members who are taking what they’ve learned and actually putting it into motion. Results don’t happen because you join a community, buy a course, or save a post. Results happen when you take action. šŸ“£ @Gemma Coles (my VIP client) launched her book in less than 8 weeks. She’s already seeing sales, working on gathering reviews, actively marketing her book, and she's already thinking about the next one. That's publisher thinking. @Pat Terrell followed the lessons inside Premium and used the step-by-step process to get her book published and live on Amazon. @Gale Bates started by moving her planner from only being sold on her own website over to Amazon KDP, making it easier for people around the world to buy it. Since then, she’s already moved into launching a children’s book and has plans for more. @Tara Adler joined the call last night where I was able to help with some keyword research (replay coming soon šŸ‘€). She’s actively working on multiple books at once... and no, not ideal Tara is just an overachiever šŸ˜‚ @Jim Flach has some great ideas in the works and decided to start with a children’s book in his niche so he could move through the process more quickly and learn by doing. šŸŽ‰ There are many people in this community making progress, and every small step matters. Whether you're writing, researching, designing, publishing, or marketing — movement creates momentum. The people taking action are moving closer to launch goals and sales goals. The people sitting on the sidelines? Those goals stay exactly where they are. "You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to become great." Drop a comment below and tell us: What is ONE thing you're working on right now? šŸ‘‡
