In the upcoming years, this trend is anticipated to intensify. According to news and social media, authors that have followings on numerous social media platforms may benefit the most.

I get it. Screw the monopolies. But are the books any good?

Great coverage of what’s coming. As the CEO of Fictionary, I have to mention we help writers and editors create better fiction with AI based software that simplifies story editing. We focus on the story structure, not the words. There are also AI based writing tools like ProWritingAid that help writers copyedit while focussing on the words. Writers have been very receptive to tools that enhance their artistic talent and take the drudgery out of editing. I think the trend of using sophisticated software will continue to grow.

Hey Lee, I think Bryan is likely thinking of the wide range of technical abilities within the author community. You are totally right that for some authors direct sales is no big deal to set up, but for others it could be more challenging to set up, let alone generate sales. I do agree, don’t be discouraged!

It’s incredibly easy.

Of course that’s only one way to do it, but don’t be discouraged.
