Advanced Ninja Writers Need - Do you write for love or money? With the advent of indie publishing, this question vexes writers like it never has before-for the first time, you can literally chase trends, feeding the fans of that lucrative genre that's flying off the shelves. But what if the stories you love to write aren't the kind that are selling like ice water in July? How do you create a career in writing that you both love and hits the financial success you need to justify the hours spent at the keyboard? This book won't tell you how to format, upload, or launch a book-or hold your hand during that first leap into indie publishing (for that, see my Indie Author Survival Guide). If you've already published and are ready to take your career up a level, For Love or Money is for you. We'll talk about writing for love (and how to sell that) as well as writing for money (and how to love it). For Love or Money contains serious strategies about making money with your books, living the freedom of indie publishing, and stretching yourself creatively in your career. This book is for authors willing to take a hard look at themselves and the market and then take the risks necessary to create their dream writing career. Susan Kaye Quinn is the author of the Singularity Series, the Mindjack Trilogy, and the Debt Collector serial (as well as other speculative fiction works) and has been indie publishing full-time since 2011. She's not an indie rockstar or a breakout success: she's one of thousands of solidly midlist indie authors making a living with their works. Her non-fiction books (Indie Author Survival Guide and For Love or Money) are designed to help her fellow authors take their own leaps into the wild (and wonderful) world of indie publishing... and not only survive, but thrive.
