This will help a lot with the workload as well as with the focus of our marketing efforts: instead of keeping up three websites, we’ll be able to concentrate on just one.Ĭome on over and have a look! The P&S Blog will offer you all sorts of goodies related to our array of books: On the advice of our new marketing guru, we’ve decided to consolidate Writers Plain & Simple and with the Plain & Simple Press blog, so we can share updates on new books as well as the writerly chit-chat we’ve indulged in here.

Writers don’t live in their garrets because they so love hustling wares, their own or anyone else’s. I personally don’t: if I were good at marketing, as we scribble I’d be making a decent living selling cars or refrigerators or radio ad space. If you enjoy sales and marketing, I’m sure it’s fun. It’s a huge time suck, and unless you like marketing, have nothing else to do, and love diddling away your time on social media, it’s an ongoing annoyance. Since time supposedly is money, you could say book marketing costs you money in spades. But otherwise, that will be about it in the marketing department. If I can get one or more of the local colleges to let me teach extension courses - the “lifelong learning” sort of thing - I may use the writing guide as a “suggested text” (we’re not allowed to require people to buy our own books). My own writing will revert to hobby status, to be posted on Amazon much as one displays one’s quilts or needlework or pecan pies at the County Fair.

And it will always go on the back burner whenever a paying customer shows up. But I’m not spending any more money on it. The plan now is to keep on writing, in idle hours, to publish the stuff on Amazon, to make it available in hard copy whenever there’s something to publish. If I land the indexing project presently under consideration, that fee will bring the bottom line back to where it was before I took to sailin’ the Amazon.

Nor was it ever much other than a hobby, given that it ran the S-corporation deep into the red. “My own stuff” is, de facto, no longer a business but a hobby. So…I’m always busy, but rarely busy on my own stuff. Every single time I sit down to format the boob book for print or finish off the guide to writing & publishing, someone shows up at the virtual door asking me to edit this magnum opus or to index that scholarly tome. That means, in effect, they’re always set aside. And no, speaking of Camptown Races: soft-core “erotica” does not sell better than ordinary nonfiction or genre novels.Ī couple new books of my ownare in the works - but they get put aside whenever paying work comes in from a client. That’s combined Plain & Simple Press and Camptown Races output. Revenues from Amazon have remained the same, whether I hustle as hard as I can or whether I just let the stuff sit there: about $15 to $19 a month.įifteen bucks a month… on over 40 titles. In consideration of that reality, some time ago I stopped actively trying to sell Plain & Simple books.

But most of the press’s revenues have come from helping others prepare their books for publication: that is to say, The Copyeditor’s Desk is the main driver of income for the entire incorporated enterprise.

P&S Press makes a little money ( very little) on its proprietor’s golden words.
