๐ MONDAY MOTIVATION (Author Story) ๐ Amanda Hocking
Amanda Hocking is one of the first self-published authors to earn millions through paranormal romance novels on Amazon.
Hocking started writing at a young age, & vy the time she was working in residential care in her mid-twenties, she had already written over a dozen books, many of which she pitched to agents without success.
๐ As the story goes, her turning point came in 2010 when she posted her books on Amazon to make $300 for a trip to see an exhibition about Muppet creator Jim Henson.
๐ Little did she know that this decision would change her life dramatically. Her stories quickly found a devoted fanbase and, within a year, she'd sold over a million copies!
You can do this too! It's a great time to be a writer. No more rejection letters from publishing agencies. Take matters into your own hands! There is an audience for everyone. Put your work out there so your audiences can find you.
