Or, are you writing to make a profit for the profit $$?
This. I don't really care about recognition (which is also why I use pen names).
That’s the power of his platform. How can you create something similar?
I have a list of almost 30,000 subscribers for my main pen name. So I sort of do have this platform but I think that my subscribers aren't super loyal or extremely interested in my work. I'm saying this because for the past several releases, I got at best 200 or so sales from this list (perhaps 300-400 if including audio and print). And that's for a $0.99 book.
Just out of curiosity, when you write this:
Because if you are after $$ money, my (one man’s) opinion is that writing is just not Fastlane. My analogy being, running shoes are slow, bicycle is much faster and get get you even across a country, but it’s not a car and definitely not an airplane. To me, Fastlane means very fast. You travel making profits faster.
Would you say that creating products for my list would be Fastlane?
In theory it sounds great but in reality it has never worked for me. I always got way more out of writing books for Amazon (where there's potential for millions of people to see it every day) than from trying to get traffic to my own site. But I suck at traffic generation so there's that...
