80% of Authors Quit? Your Longterm Success Odds
I'm discussing a sobering article posted by Jane Friedman that cited 80% of authors "quit" within 3 books published. Only 10% make it to 6 books published. (All traditional publishing stats, not indie)
But. I have some questions/quibbles on the data, as well as the conclusions. I'm discussing how, indeed, traditional publishing is not easy to succeed in long term but I think there is slightly more hope than these stats indicate?
Here is Friedman's blog post: https://askanauthor.substack.com/p/writing-failure-and-time
Here is the Twitter thread where she got the data: https://twitter.com/fictiondb/status/1203035784850239488
Here is my video on how to manage publishing "failure": https://youtu.be/Sj57reY2TBw
