EPISODE 34: What to do when your book flops
Welcome to the Rage Against the Manuscript podcast. You've published your book and it isn't selling the way you hoped – what do you do? Is it time to give up self-publishing altogether? HELL NO. In this episode, I look at why some books flop, what you can learn from them, and how to make them valuable assets in your backlist.
Listen on Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
In this episode:
How to stop beating yourself up every time a book doesn't do as well as you hoped (easier said than done)
How you can learn from a flop to create a better future project.
Is your book cross-genre? Here's how you can use that to your advantage.
Ways to mitigate the damage caused by a flop.
How to keep a flop selling year after year.
Why it's okay to give up on a book.
If you've got a question you want to ask me about self-publishing or writing or building a career as an author, head over to the Rage Against the Manuscript FB group or email me steff@rageagainstthemanuscript.com and I’ll talk about it on a future episode. Happy writing!
