This is just a fantastic site to learn new things!

I've been here for a while, and even so, I find I learn new things almost every day.

This forum was created after Kboards was sold. That used to be the most popular self-publishing forum for years but went downhill after the sale because probably 80% of the authors there left. That used to be the place to be a long time ago. This and Absolute Write seem to be the only non-social media writing forums still around. Most forums died out years ago and authors moved to communities on places like Reddit and FB groups where you get tons of activity and information. Those are the sites where I go to regularly. Threads seems to be a popular place for writers too but I'm not on there. I'm not a social media person. I just use it to keep up with the industry, not personally. I don't come here much. It's a nice forum though but not as active as other places.

Yes, it's one of the few places left you can actually learn stuff, or just connect with serious writers, outside of private groups. Kboards is basically a promote your business (especially those continued sales on plots), or for people to stumble around, never learning anything. It's sad. That was my go-to for seeing what was going on in the self publishing world, especially for Amazon.
