RE: Buy These Books With STEEM or Steem Dollars
Great idea Block. I'd like to see some sort of "literary commerce" get kickstarted here on Steemit. Serious authors HAVE TO find a way to get paid A LOT MORE for their works as the current reward system simply isn't sufficient.
Right now, it's far better to write a few paragraphs of crap and spend 90% of your time schmoozing than it is to write Shakespeare ... which takes a lot of time and thus doesn't allow for nearly as much schmoozing. There has to be a secondary way that great literature can make money.
I have some rudimentary ideas I'm mulling over.

There's no way to get around the schmoozing, I'm afraid. Even Shakespeare had to get out and shake a few hands. He'd have never published otherwise.
