So you want to write or publish a book. It's easy to get caught up in what's hot, marketable, and selling NOW (we see you, romantasy).
But what if you have a book that might not be the easiest to market? Whether it's because of the regionality, niche background, or lack of comp titles, sometimes a book can be really really good but tricky to sell.
How do you balance the need to write a book you love, but also figure out the marketing angle in a business that tends to love trendy titles? This week on the pod, J. Hunter Bennett, author of "More Punk than the Public Library" is back to talk to Joe and Elly about his very cool- and very unique!- book, and what went into the development of it.
