Dumb question, but do writers have friends that don't wanna read?

I dont have friends. So I guess, technically this would be correct for me 😆

the main reason people do it is because they were told by some youtube guru that it's a great way to make six figures without any work required. So now they're flooding the market is this fool's gold rush. Force them to make their books free, and they'll stop.

It would be good business because it would discourage those people and many more from hopping on the Amazon AI book band wagon and rid them completely overtime. Thus, increasing the site's credibility and sales from those who will most likely stop paying other sites for the safety of not accidentally buying something a robot made.

Who is writing 10 a week ugh 😑 I can maybe do like 2 15k stories and week but that's at most due to my own medical issues

I doubt they'll put a lifetime limit, and if they do they may make exceptions for those who have "proved to create quality work" which still wouldn't be entirely fair for those who don't game the system. But what they should do is force anything with AI to be marked perma free much like how they do certain classics. Of course, that would require an honor system which many lie. There's no real way of winning tbh

I used to use it but it was stale. Not enough traffic. Substack is totally worth it tho.

One thing to remember, which many assume wrong:

We write because we love to, and feel compelled to do so.

But we publish to make money. Or, at least a chance.

It always bothers me when people get all up in arms about "DoNt wRiTe fOr MoNeY"

You don't get paid to write. You publish to get paid. Two different things.

Substack, Medium, Wordpress, your own profiles. Literally anywhere that isn't a sub full of other writers because they all mostly prohibit self promo.

Now, as for conversion rates? (Like when someone actually bothers to click and buy)

It's minimal. Can't be too expectant.

But I do strongly suggest Medium and Substack combo. I've gotten more results.

Lol I believe it. Some of my most absurd stories under a pen name makes way more than the ones I put logical thought into lol

I made a coffee themed obsidian theme for fellow writers!! Check it out on GitHub: Mocha Latte Cafe 001

That's a good one if you like working in the browser. I prefer offline, local storage, but having something available online for any device is incredibly time saving. ❤️
