It’s a reasonable concern for a publisher. A book being good doesn’t necessarily sell books. But having a famous name on it does.
You can be a master with 30 years experience in something like pottery, but you will make less money than an amateur who started doing pottery this year who has even a moderate Instagram following if you don't have any social media presence.
You have to whore yourself to the masses if you want to make money in art or literature.
Instructions unclear. I've literally whored myself to the masses and I don't know how to make pottery.
But you probably made lots of money. :)
Money?
Maybe the real money was the diseases we caught along the way
You should've watched "Ghost". Whoring yourself AND pottery.
