How to get sales for low/no content paperback books

Hi,

So, I started a Kindle journey a few weeks back. I'm getting sales for my E-books, but the low-content activity-based paperback book I published hasn't sold a single copy.

I wonder how I can get some traction to it. Should I just publish more books?

Also, in that vein, do people pay money for erotica stories/novels outside of Kindle or publishers in general?

What if I publish them on my website? Would they subscribe to my list? Can I create a membership upsell for the site? Would they buy? Even if they did, will I get in hot water with paypal for selling "adult" content, even though they are just stories?

I know that's a lot of questions, but I didn't want to clog up the forum with too many threads.

I appreciate anyone who has the patience to read and answer my questions.

Thanks for the help!

Maybe you should give up the idea to sell paper books, and focus entirely on E-books?
