Romance and/or erotic ebooks are said to be a rapidly growing trend in
publishing. As a sometime author, I am interested in how many books a
top-selling author of romance/erotica actually sells. However, I am
unable to discover sales figures for any book or author. Typically, I
uncover information such as: "Sales vary according to many factors.
Some books earn $200, some $20,000." An answer so general is no help
at all. I am not interested in an "average" figure, which is
meaningless. Nor am I interested in how much a first-time or
beginning author might earn. (It's a given that beginning writers
earn little or nothing.) The only valid measurement of an author's
success is the number of books a particular title has sold. If you
have specific information, please respond. Please provide titles
and/or authors. Author pseudonyms are acceptable. |
