    Kindle Unlimited... Authors in trouble?

    PUBLISHING 
    Agghhh! this basically sums up the main problem. It's control. I think if you are a big name then it doesn't matter too much as you can just take your readership elsewhere. As I write non-fiction in a genre whose readers have little 'brand loyalty' I am very dependent on Amazon's movements...

    Project Amazon- My eBook Journey

    EXECUTION 
    None my business, but paying for reviews is a slippery slope. I see this in my genre and people often actually write and 'call the author out' on it. Pretty off putting for prospective customers. Non-fiction is a world based on 'reputation'. They are buying because they trust that you are the...

    Good advice. I never thought I'd have to be told to take it it easy for a while! But that's where I'm at now (I did btw, I watched Sci -Fi all Sunday). I, like most people have been bogged down in procrastination many times. I hear a lot of people asking for advice on this site about this...

    Ok have just hired my first ghostwriter. It's a complete paint by numbers so if it works out, I will be outsourcing all of the non-technical writing (about 1/3 of each book) to others. Also it's the bit that takes up most of the time, so I'm hoping that it will cut my book writing in this genre...
