Fifteen to twenty years ago experts would have tried to dissuade you from self-publishing your fiction novel. But these days, with the advent of the Internet, print-on-demand printing and ebooks, self-publishing fiction makes a lot of sense. In fact, here at MindStir Media we see incredible fiction sales numbers. The vast majority of our bestsellers are fiction, and our fiction authors receive larger overall royalty checks than their non-fiction author counterparts.
One of our most successful fiction authors is Paula Wiseman. She’s self-published six Christian fiction books with MindStir and all six of them are Amazon bestsellers. Her books sell especially well in the ebook and paperback print-on-demand formats. She uses the Internet, mainly social media, to market her books. She doesn’t live in the center of New York and isn’t publishing with a New York publisher, but she’s enjoyed a level of success that only a small percentage of NY authors have experienced. The point is this: Self-publishing fiction online can be just as effective as traditional NY book publishing.
