Do you have any experiences with self published books from new/unknown authors? I’m considering checking that area out since the traditional published books are becoming so very similar due to the strict standards which lead to almost for every publishing house to deal with no authors but those they work with for years. Short story long: Books are becoming extremely repetitive and so BORING!!!
What do you say?
It used to be with any art form, you got rich and famous or starved. Most likely the latter. There was no middle ground.
Now with online publishing and platforms like tik tok etc, there’s a space for aspiring artists. Those at least passable who put in the work have the chance to make money on the side or even a reasonable living, if they create enough content and do it consistently.
Now how good is it? Hit or miss.
You certainly make a good point there, which is: nothing is easy.
