Maybe I could hire someone to market it for me so then it would have better chances at making sales?

But then you have to pay that person a percentage of your profits. If you can market your book yourself...you can keep all of the profits!!!!!! Just read some articles about marketing. There's this thing called "guerrilla marketing" where you think outside the box, like you and your friends wearing a T-shirt with the name of your book on it into the city where a lot of people are sure to see it!

@SW-User Exactly. I even made a game & same kind of results happen. I put out a job posting even though I say in the ad its non-pay volunteering and everytime I show them the notes, they ignore my ass. Or a few times they're like, is there pay? I'm very much into non-profit mode lately and yet the struggle continues.

@Tracos Do you simply mean ebook or is that a name of a self publishing platform?

maybe not, a blog seems a decent alternative

@SW-User blogs don't pay for the first year of postings. Plus.... I honestly don't know if people even read blogs?

@SW-User I see, I had something else in mind when I wrote that, blog works if your main aim was just to be read and share your writings. Yea they do, why not, if they find it interesting enough, what makes a book more readable than a blog if both are being read digitally, idk
