RE: Is Steemit the Future of Self-Publishing? (A Veteran Author’s Opinion)
Success and failure on Steemit can be a confusing endeavor. The mistakes I've made in the past has been to post a new storyline with only the first segment ready. Then I've allowed the votes and money to cloud my judgement and not continue on with what might be the makings of a good book or short story. A good idea might be to have 3 to 5 parts ready first and release them daily. Then look for the positive and negative from what transpires.
This is all over a year old now. There's been so much great yarn spun in that time, it's too bad someone doesn't come up with a brilliant idea to funnel some of it into the right channels and get it published for real. The authors always have the means to do it themselves, but maybe some good ole fashioned publishing could help the writers, as well as shine the light on how great Steemit really is.
Loved this thread. I'm very interested in how all this will play out in this space, and I have the feeling we're just starting to see the possibilities.
