Erotic Lit kindle etc. Page Count

OU812 · 2013-09-02 11:15:28

One thing I've noticed recently, the page count on these are really low, yet they seem to sell like hotcakes.. 10-20 pages seems to be the norm for the price of £0.99-£4.99. Is 10-20 pages really a "book" ? Have you ever written one & what was your page count ?

10-20 pages are selling for money? Seriously? I'll have to get on that bandwagon.

Apparently so. I was talking to a girl who did an AMA on reddit recently. She has 80 books published & makes an average of $3,000 a month from it.

Summer months are horrible for sales for some reason, but during the winter she can be doing about $1,200 a week (before taxes).

She gave up her job to do it full time & is now doing one a week. Can't imagine the quality is too high, but she obviously knows what her customers like.

10 pages? Is there even a plot?

I could totally jump on that bandwagon
