I don't know if this is a new trend for this year, or something bigger, but is anyone else seeing a downward trend in book sales recently? I'm just asking because something feels off to me. Sales of my books have been awesome since they first hit the shelves just over a year ago. However, as of a few days before Black Friday and extending up through today, all of my book sales have dropped to almost nothing. Is it just me, or is anyone else seeing this happen? I'm just wondering, because if it's just me, I need to figure out where the wheel came off the wagon and get things rolling again. If it's not, and this is a market wide thing, then I know to just sit back and wait it out.

Also, as a side note, I've also seen a sharp drop off in visits to not only my own website, but a number of others I frequent or administer. That's what got me to thinking that this is a wider trend and not something isolated.
