The Tropical Eccentric
@tropicaleccentric.bsky.social
Darkly romantic Sci-fi and steampunk bilingual author from the Caribbean. Time-traveler, robot-obsessed and elegantly sarcastic since 1898.

I understand. I always sold more books in person, but the ROI is better online unless someone else is footing the bill for travel and appearance expenses. Traveling with a robot is not easy 😅.

Are you sure it’s still a “good” thing?

My guess is they will revert back to fewer authors being signed so pubs can focus on a few… not sure where they will promo since fewer people shop in-store or watch tv. The entire ecosystem goes. Indies will have to sell locally only if at all.

And they should continue to be treated as such. No matter how high they think they can fly, they should still know their place in the world.

Publishers also use social media. What about authors who published independently?

Key West is (usually) always a good idea 🏝️😆
