I suggest reaching out to the world, beyond your borders and you will be surprised at how many readers you will find interested in your work. Serious readers who aren’t so much into a pretty picture but who are mostly interested your story and unique penmanship.
Many now world renowned authors have had to do this from James Baldwin, to Robert Frost, to Zora Neale Hurston. (You may also find her name written as ‘Nora’) Their work wasn’t a hit among Americans. But that didn’t defer them in getting their work out there. They all reached out to the world. And this occurred per internet days.
Baldwin work became very popular in the Netherlands, Sweden, and France while Frost work was accepted among English aristocracy but not in San Fransisco where he tirelessly tried to become published. Hurston’s work eventually as the others went world wide.
So, the bottom line is it doesn’t matter who is reading it as long as someone is reading.
I can’t stress this enough-always copy your work.

A. White, an award winning former librarian, who is also a long time member of Romantic Time and Publisher's Weekly. A. White has been writing for over fifteen years. She took classes in creative writing in college, specializing in ancient myths and legends. and later at a local community center while living in Chicago. In college she won the national contest to verbally list every country in the world, it's capital and ingenious language. Her works are mainly horror, fantasy, extreme, and sci-fi as well as, as some may says, "the truly strange predicament and puzzling." Books that I've written are "Clash with the Immortals, and eleven others which are part of the "Unholy Pursuit saga,". She has been working on the Chronicles since 2007. She wished to complete them all before introducing them to public so the readers wouldn't have to for the continuation to be written.
The ideas of the book come from classic literature such as whose work greatly influence the world world such as Homer, Sophocles, Herodotus, Euripides, Socrates, Hippocrates, Aristophanes, Plato, Aristotle and many more. The "Book of Enoch" influenced the usage of Azazael as a main character and love interest. I created the primary main character from the Chronicle of Saints. I wanted to show them as real flesh and blood with thoughts, desires and yearning as any human. Not as they are so often depicted. So I created one of my own to show her as a real human that everyone can relate to.

It’s sad but so many indie authors won’t even forward their fellow author’s work or host a book on their blog for free. That isn’t going to change any readers you might have mind about reading your work.
