I think those presold numbers are great, especially direct. There's a heap of trad fiction titles that don't get to 300 copies sold, period.

Hey Nat - this is super helpful for someone tinkering in fiction (coming from a serious, biz background).

Question: how much does your newsletter audience translate into your fiction audience?

I’m thinking about how I can bring along my audience here (focused on work + meaning), into something far different (e.g. post-apocalyptic coming of age story 😅).

If you’ve written/podcasted about this, and I missed it, let me know.
