What I Learned about Indie Publishing in 2025 (Full Sales and Expenses Report)

In 2025, I didn’t have a lot of time to work on my writing career, but I did try a few experiments that I thought would be helpful to share with others. With a major health event with a close family member and the passing away of another, I chose to focus on family and my full-time job in 2025.

Quotes by Ron Vitale  (?)

“I believe that my heart is true and that I have not yet lost my way, for I remember what I still want out of life.”
Ron Vitale, Lost

“I fell asleep then and never heard the ending to the story. In the morning, my mother was dead. The physician said she had passed in her sleep from the fever that we both had fought against the whole week.”
Ron Vitale, Lost

“I have traveled long and far, losing my way looking for acceptance in others, whereas I only need to accept and love myself. No one else could rescue me. Only I have such power.”
Ron Vitale, Lost
