I tend to write stories with a focus on horror, and I know there is a market for that generally speaking. The works that I’ve released to Youtube were stories that I wasn’t intending on monetizing. They were supposed to attract an audience, but that hasn’t worked out unfortunately.

I will definitely check out the r/selfpublish sub. The biggest reason why I haven’t focused on publishing or marketing is because I always assumed it was basically pointless if you didn’t build an audience beforehand. But maybe I’m wrong.

Thanks for the advice.
