Self employed under 400 but working full time

I made less than 400 as a self published author. I also work full time. Can I still claim deductions for self employment even though I'm under the threshold for Schedule C? I also spent more money than I made as a self published author

Yes and you can claim a loss. Read  Not-for-Profit Activities  on page 7   https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p535.pdf
