I started self-publishing on Amazon Kindle around six years ago. In that time I have had best-sellers, huge flops, and a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I've learned a lot from creating over forty books and I'm happy to share some tips with others interested in self-publishing.
Most of my work teaches imagintation and heart to children. I also like to engage with difficult topics, such as celiac disease in my novel Poop, something that has given me a reputation for having an edge so to speak. You can judge for yourself at my website www.ajcosmo.com and check out some of the covers in this post.
If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. I look forward to meeting and reading everyone on Steemit!
Woohoo!
Sent you a couple of bucks. ;)

Would you mind sharing some of your secrets on how you market your books? Do you focus on keywords, advertisement campaigns, or what? I am also a Kindle author but would like to hear your ideas on how to generate sales.

My first strategy was simply productivity. I put out on average a book every two weeks. Due to market saturation though this is no longer recommended. My advice now would be to know your market, design the book accordingly, and make everything as professional as possible. This includes optimizing keywords (fiverr is great for SEO work) and then using those keywords as starting points for Amazon ads- which are now unfortunately necessary to even rank anymore. Regardless of your strategy, you need to always experiment and engage- there is no set it and forget it approach.

Thank you for the encouragement, MyHealth. Another indie friend of mine recommended the site and it seems like a great place to post some stuff that wouldn't fit anywhere else. I look forward to growing this little seed as best I can. :)
