The young people I know still very much enjoy stories, they're just consuming them differently, by audio and podcast series. I would assume listening to fiction and non-fiction activates the mind similarly to reading a book. Since people have had TV and comic books for a long time, I don't view alternate methods of story-telling as a threat to writers, even if it forces us to evolve our methods or change mediums. Since ancient times, people have found ways to tell tales.

I also know a lot of young people who still enjoy print books. They want hard covers with beautiful artwork they can display on their shelves and share with friends. Ideally, with a large fandom on Youtube, where they can watch other readers speculating about the characters and storylines, and can feel like part of a community centered around their favorite author or series.

#3 for me.

Thanks. I'm still practising using BookBrush.

This is for all sci-fi, fantasy, and paranormal EXCEPT erotica. No nekkid' man chests. All mailing list sizes are welcome, but only authors with share reps of 100+ may have more than THREE ebooks.

Create series page is ONLY for creating a new series.

For sequels, you have to select an existing series name, select if a core or non-core book, and then check it gives it the correct book number before accepting it.

Whatever you were looking at, either it's worded badly or you misread it.

The only time you'd create a series on a book 2 is if you didn't do it with book 1. If book 1 was released as a stand alone, you'd need to create the series with book 2.

That sure was a bizarre case. You could almost call it literary kleptomania. I feel bad for everyone who got burned by this, especially the aspiring authors.
