/lit/ - Literature

> Spend most days writing while I'm not working.
> Friend tells me it's useless and is never going anywhere.
> I just do it because I like creating a world that I can control, it's fun.
> Decide to make a small compilation of short stories in a book available on Amazon.
> Rated super well so far - but sales have stopped after the first few weeks.

Tldr - How do I get my book out there so it keeps selling? It's even free on Kindle+ and people aren't reading it, are they just not seeing it? I don't know what to do and I'm getting frustrated with myself.
