Hey /lit/, /biz/ question here.

Why don't all of you write e books and sell them on amazon? You don't even have to be good at writing. You could just write some page turner thriller or robots fuck vampires 7 or any shit that sells well on there.

There are heaps and heaps of easy tactics to use to sell these books, then eventually you can capitalise on the popularity of you as an author and write real books you want to write, while still selling copies.

Done. You are now doing exactly what i would imagine 75% of people on this board want to be. And getting paid for it. And it takes very little effort?

What's stopping you?

well I stopped the moment I realize that all that fantasy of unlimited richness and fame was all but a marketing illusion that amazon's been shoving in my ass, real hard. Now, I'm doing my writing and looking for a normal publisher. That's what stopped me.

If you go to blackhatforum there are tons of threads on how to crank out erotica and sell them. When you have 500+ books on fetishes apparently you can generate quite a stream of income.

Also

>very little effort

It takes around 100-500 to get on amazon so if you didn't sell at least 1500 copies you are fucked.

Write intentionally shit content long enough, it'll be all you can write. You can make money, sure, but you're digging yourself into a hole which will make writing something with merit even harder.
