I took pre-orders on my book and have already sold over 60 copies at $16 each. I made people pay up front so that I could use the money to place the first order. I did not keep any profit, but used the extra $6 per book to order more. Since the first order is 50% off, I made out good and even put some extra in to get more copies at the discount.

This really works!!

Congrats on your first success! That is thinking smart. I didn't even know you could pre-order until after my book was available so you go girl! 60 is a big number. Keep up the great work and sell a million more! Show those naysayers PA authors are worth talking about!

Have fun!
Amber
