Would you do it differently?

No, not at all.

But I learned so much.

It's not going to take two and a half years to do the next one.

Well, I'm driving sales every which way I can.

You know, I haven't sold a million copies yet.

I've sold, I guess, the first month was 80-some, 88, and then went up to about 150 and 200, and now I'm at about 250, and I'm about three or four months into my sales.

And it's just, it's a learn-as-you-go type of thing.

Okay, got it.

And what is the listing price?

It was $17.99, and they're selling it for $16.19, and I make about $7 a book.

Oh, well, you know, somebody has to Amazon.

That's what Amazon takes.

You know, it's on Amazon.

Amazon takes her little piece for their marketing and there's a cost to print the book.

That's about $3 or something.

If Amazon sells it, they take a bigger chunk.

If I sell it at the back of one of my speeches or something, then I make about $14 or so on it.

if amazon i got my stories confused amazon when they sell a book i make seven dollars and when i sell it myself there's about a four dollar cost so i make the uh the difference on that cost okay i'm not following on the amazon model how you're making money so let's walk down 18 bucks is what it's listed for on amazon you said you make seven dollars on that so there's eleven dollars of cost in there how is that eleven dollars of cost split up

If I sell it myself?
