The DU Lounge

I was considering it for some time, attended a small group of published writers. One was nationally known, a talk show guest, one published several Amazon titles and then found a publisher for the next one, one self-published on Amazon.

Amazon is a niche market.

I attended a lecture by a business author who claimed 92% of books never make a dime.

In the 1980s everyone wanted to write but few were word processing. Today everyone writes, everyone has software, many have advanced degrees, so there is plenty of supply in the publishing market. I suspect we have a lower percentage of readers than 35 years ago.

Interested in your reaction and feel free to disagree.
