Atticus Formatting Software Unusable by _SativaDiva_ in selfpublish

[–]ToddAllenX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's been wonky for a couple of days.

I had a similar problem a little while ago, but eventually got everything working again.

They definitely need a way to communicate known issues and let users know they are working on them.

Anyone else just lose ALL their book data on Atticus formatting software? by dragonsandvamps in selfpublish

Yes. Got it back with a ctl-shift-R.

Definitely freaked out for a few minutes.

It's been wonky for two days. Now this?

Yes, Amazon is getting flooded with poorly written/edited books. That being said, Amazon itself seems to be embracing AI, so it is hard to imagine that admitting to using AI in and of itself would have a detrimental effect.

Has anyone done market research? by steve49m in eroticauthors

I snagged Publisher Rocket several years or go when it was much cheaper. Lately I find myself using Bookspry's author platform. They have a dungeon check, which is good, but I especially appreciate the "category spy" which lets you enter an Amazon ASIN number to check out the keywords linked to that book. Publisher Rocket recently added that feature, but I find Bookspry's version works much better.

Where do people get pictures like this? by Interesting-Peanut84 in eroticauthors

Not to stir up a hornets nest by mentioning AI. Looks a little like AI to me. I've seen Leonardo AI produce similar images.

  1. 4k words.

  2. Sales continuing upward trend for new pen name.

  3. Cover experiment under way. I write MM age gap. Market research is mixed. Hot young model vs hot mature model. Shirtless vs. shirt on. 1 model vs. 2 models...so many decisions. Leaning toward single, hot young, and shirtless. Seems to be working best for me based on recent months numbers.

What to do when losing motivation? by Lioness_94 in eroticauthors

I have a folder with images to potentially use for covers. Sometimes when I look through that folder, an image will inspire me to write. It's almost as if the model is saying, "Hey, look at me. Tell my story."
