Returning to this after listening to it years ago. So clearly articulated and so honestly shared. So very helpful. Thanks,

Awesome informative video. Others should learn from you how to do this right. No gimmicks no superficial info, no hard selling. All that isn't necessary. Help people first and we will buy. See now I'm going to buy your business book and possibly more with just your one plug for it. Thanks so much!

wonderful! thankyou so much for such a detailed & well covered content on this topic. You are fab! Its 2020 and it would be awesome if you could make a part 2 of this same topic on your journey so far from 2015 till date...am extremely eager to know how things have changed for you & the writing market in these 5 years. Please please make a part 2 video of this Joanna!

Thank you for such an inspiring vlog!! I have a short romance story that I want to make a full novel...any advice? Do you think I should start from scratch?

Omg--are we all from accounting 😆 I left my job as an accounting professor to focus on creative writing--no more academic writing.

Fantastic video Joanna!

New follower, greatfull for your channel..

Hi, how can I turn my book into an audio book? Or what good services or websites are out there I can submit my book to?

Nice video.

I love your videos.. do you have any videos on what platforms can they sale their books?

this is awesome and a companion to your books Business for Authors, How to Make a Living With Your Writing and How to Market a Book! I have all three in audio form. Is there a download link for this video? I'm blind, so I'd be using this as a podcast episode. Maybe you could do videos on podcasting.

What is the expense for having an audiobook done?

Thank you for this information ... You took time out of your day just to help other people ... I say again THANK YOU ! Team multiple sources of income 😎😎😎

Great author, great persona, great smile! Inspiring. I look forward to being better :-)

Okay J.F., Thanks for the Video. But I must confess that this title was a bit tricky for me. At first I couldn't figure out where you were going with it, but now I see clearly how it turned out. But a quick one: I want to know if Draft to Digital has its own platform for selling eBooks apart from being an aggregator to other channels like kobo etc. In other words, can I upload my book on D2D and deselect all the other distribution options. Thanks.

Can i break a large self help book into smaller ones. Thank you so much for your videos!!!

Many years ago i used to have a pseudo name , it was easy to get jobs then and even open a bank account but if I was to write under a pen name how does that work in terms of being paid?

I am that writer that just wants to write and leave the marketing to someone else. How many people are doing that and can you point me the direction to hire someone for the job. Thanks

I'm discovering that self publishing is very expensive especially if you're on a low income as I am . How long would you say would it take to generate an income from scratch?

I think to whom you market your book to has a derogative impact. For instance the children sector is absolutely saturated and is far more competative. Cook book's are the same, so I'd like to add that focusing on your niche' is the most important factor to whom your audience are going to be. You've really got to get your thinking cap on would be my advice to people wanting to make a living from writing.

50:23 This is easier for those who want to write stories or self-help books. For those who want to write controversial and politically incorrect non-fiction, there is a problem...

Not to be critical, but it seems you've told us where things are going but not "how" to get there. Did I miss something?
