Accounting for your author business
Writing a book is only part of being an author. Understanding the business behind it helps you decide what comes next. This podcast makes accounting concepts approachable, with practical explanations of royalties, production costs, promotion spending, profitability, and cash flow—all grounded in the decisions authors face.
Whether you’re preparing your first release or managing an established catalog, we’ll explore how to assess a book’s performance, understand where your money is going, and weigh the costs and potential returns of your next investment. You don’t need an accounting background—just an interest in using your numbers to make more informed decisions about your writing business.
