Is self publishing worth it?

After I had a successful traditionally-published book, I decided to try self publishing. When you self publish, you make more money, right?

Here's what I earned:

  • Copies Sold: 11,000
  • Royalties: $19,000
  • Profit: $3,000

How did I sell that many books? What marketing tactics worked, and which were a waste of time? Most importantly, what happened to $16,000 of the royalties I earned?

Whether you're thinking of trying self publishing, or you're trying to gain traction, this detailed report gives you an under-the-hood look at what seems to be a self-publishing failureā€¦that may actually be a success.
