Hi, and welcome to my KDP income reports.

I’m a “wide” self-published and traditionally-published author, and have been publicly reporting my revenue since January 2018. Follow along with my self-publishing journey, as I share detailed numbers from Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, wide publishing, Patreon, and other income sources.

February 2021 Income Report

March 25, 2021

An audio version of this income report is available to Patreon backers of certain levels »

February’s revenues were $5,255, up from January’s $4,772. Profits were $2,208, down from January’s $2,436. Profits are down for the third month in a row.

The profit for this December report is higher than usual for December. For example, in December 2019, my profit was $1,278, and in December 2018, I reported a loss of $773. Much of this is due to a change in how I’m accounting expenses I pay for on a yearly basis.

But first, how I came to make this change. Come along with me through a circuitous thought process. keep on reading »
