What's one thing you're willing to do differently in your writing or self-publishing this year?

One thing I'm willing to do differently this year is commit to keeping my ebook in Kindle Unlimited and fully lean into what that exclusivity makes possible.  Rather than treating KU as a temprary experiment, I'm approaching it as a focused distribution strategy that supports discoverability, reader ampling, and long-time visibility.  This shift allows me to simplify my publishing workflow, concentrate marketing efforts in one primary ecosystem, and better evaluate reader engagement through page reads and trends.  At the same time, I'm being more deliberate about how my wider author ecosystem—print editions, direct sales, journals, and community content—supports and benefits from that exclusivity instead of working against it.  The goal is not limitation, but clarity: fewer scattered efforts, stronger alignment, and smarter use of the platforms I choose to commit to.
