I had a chat with @Readerly. We’re shelving the project for a couple of reasons:
1) He’s focusing on his business, and finishing off his own fiction book.
2) I’d rather create courses, and engage the market quicker with content I can chop and change as I test how it helps people.
By publishing content on a site or YouTube I can run ads for keywords that I think my content can help people with. I can send people to a page with content that can help them, and provide a content upgrade (lead magnet) so I get their contact details if they want more. I can set one of these up daily once I figure out the software, and the speed and immediacy appeals.
Also, if I see a book for $40 I instantly think it’s expensive. If I see a course for $40 I instantly think it’s cheap.
What I’ve noticed recently, even in the forum, is how much more comfortable people are buying courses online. A case in point is masterclass dot com that has a lot of people signing up from the forum. That’s $200/year, and seems a no-brainier to those that signup.
I’m not saying don’t write fiction of course. @Readerly has loved writing for decades and has an itch he can’t scratch.
For me, writing a book isn’t an itch I can’t scratch. Creating content daily is.
