Your Stress Matters' Tip of the Week

(The Baum Group takes great pleasure in introducing Georgina Stath, the most inspiring short story coach we have met.   Please welcome Georgina and her article "Who Said You Can't Make a Profitable Income Selling Your Short Stories?")

Who said you can't make a profitable income selling your short stories?

The truth is, selling your short stories to publishers is not the way to make a comfortable living from something you enjoy doing.  The reason isn't hard to understand.  Publishers pay a once-off payment for your stories, if they are accepted.  And that once-off payment, in most cases, isn't anything to get excited about.

But most writers settle for this because they tell themselves, well, at least my story is published.

Wrong.

You can have your cake and eat it too.  You can become published and you can make a comfortable income too.

Other writers have done it.  I have done it.  And you can do it too.

What has brought this change of events?  You might have guessed the Internet.  The Web far surpasses all those other options open to us.   With the Internet...

* It's in your capacity to start your own business, it doesn't matter what your circumstance are.

* You can keep building on that business to increase your income.

* You can run your business on autopilot.  Have you heard the stories where Internet business owners make money while they sleep?  They aren't kidding.

* You can keep generating sales from your short stories.  Don't only sell them once to a publisher.  Keep selling the same stories over and over again.

Becoming frustrated with submitting to publishers I thought I'd try to sell my stories myself and 'see what happens.'  I saw what happened alright.   I saw I'd been wasting my time all those years settling for less.  I'm thankful to that writer who opened my eyes to the power of the internet.

I've made more from this book of short stories than I sell at http://www.storieswithatwist.com than I've seen all those years waiting for publishers to sell my stories.

I've learnt something from this experiment.

If you want things to happen - you have to make them happen.

The transition between unpublished and published lies in your attitude.

Do you want to keep submitting to publishers to see what happens?

Or

Do you want to sell your stories yourself and see what happens?

I've created a book which I'm offering for free to those that want to make that transition.  Along with the book I'm offering ongoing support through articles you will receive once every two weeks.  These articles concentrate on short story writing, selling your stories and keeping you encouraged.

It's even open to those that still prefer to stick with publishers.  There are no strings attached.  Read it, see what you think.  If you still prefer to publish your stories through publishers, disregard it.

It's your choice.
