@Kevin james Waldroup Love that move, Kevin. I’ve been self-publishing too—and honestly, it helped me grow way faster than I expected. The control + speed is unmatched. Going hybrid hits different when you already have momentum behind you.

When the Work Starts Paying Off
There’s something different about holding a book that’s actually working. This one has been getting results, and moments like this remind me why I treat publishing as a long term game. Authors how does it feel the first time you hold your own book?

@Jordan H Thanks, I really appreciate that. And congratulations to you as well, selling a few copies every week is actually a great sign that your book is gaining traction. That’s how momentum starts for many authors. Also, getting selected to ghostwrite for a BBC celebrity is a huge achievement. That shows your writing skills are already being recognized at a high level. I’m sure the book launching on 15/04 will open even more doors for you, and for me, what really helped my books start performing better on Amazon was focusing not just on publishing, but also on consistent awareness and visibility so readers can actually discover the book. Once readers start noticing it, reviews and sales naturally begin to grow. If you’d like to see one of my books, here’s one of them on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Her-Deadly-End-Thriller-Thrillers/dp/1990234372 Wishing you massive success with your upcoming release, it sounds like an exciting project!

@Jordan H That sounds really interesting, a discoverability platform for new authors is definitely something the publishing space needs. I’d be happy to take a look when you’re ready to share it.
NEW: Classroom Video
Amazon Ads for Authors has been posted under the Classroom tab! 📚 This video will be helpful for authors who want to run more, and better, Amazon ads. @John Read explains finding the the right balance for our books and when to make changes. Watch it and let me know if this was helpful! Happy publishing 😃

@Jack Slater good and you?
Writers, let’s talk about revision for a moment.
When you reach the editing stage, what part tends to slow you down the most? Is it cutting words you worked hard to write? Strengthening dialogue so it sounds natural? Fixing pacing that feels slightly off? Cleaning up grammar and sentence flow? Or restructuring sections that just are not landing the way you hoped? Revision can be one of the most rewarding stages, but it can also be the most frustrating. I have noticed that many writers struggle most with clarity and flow during self edits, especially when they are too close to the work. What part of revision feels the most overwhelming to you right now? And when you get stuck, do you push through it alone, step away for a while, or seek outside feedback? I would genuinely love to hear how you approach this stage of the writing process.

@Indy M That flexibility can be a gift, honestly because some days you need a light touch, and other days you’re in deep focus mode, so do you notice a difference in quality between the 20 minute sessions and the 8 hour ones, or does it balance out?
