Thank you for this informative and factual article on the challenges of selling books.

I'm in the fortunate situation that I do not have to sell my books to earn an income.

My desire to be seen as an author and to see that someone is interested in my books is the primary thing. My goal for my writing is to write about things that are important in human life, and I want through my writing (novels, essays, articles, poems) to help readers understand life, other people and themselves.
