The only way you will make money on a children's book is if you make it about interracial relationships. They don't have to be sexual though I'm sure they could and that would skate by just fine, they just have to be happy with a dose of "white girl realizes ____" and everyone is happy and together. Except for young white boys, they cannot have any part in the book except the role of a bully or some nerdy, annoying little brother.

Finding a traditional publisher is hard. You have to learn how to navigate agents, editors, and publishing contracts.

Successful self-publishing is hard. You have to learn book production, promotion, marketing, and distribution -- the things that editors, agents, and publishers do for you in the traditional publishing world.

Totally. She has dedicated her life to working with children, and music is her passion. Her piano students absolutely love it. They beg her to pull it out at every lesson, and many of them have made breakthroughs in their progress thanks to it. I support her 100%.

She went out of her way to make the book as diverse as possible. For example, the "protagonist" is a ethnically ambiguous (pic related). Then, at the end of the book, there is a beautiful 2 page illustration of a bunch of kids of different colors and creeds jamming out on different instruments together. One of them is even wearing a yarmulke. It's great.

I know that sounds like a big cope, but I think it's somewhat unhealthy to compare people, especially comparing you hard working wife to some online thot. I think everyone knows that feeling of unfairness to a certain dregree.
Now, for you wife I write the following: Don't get discouraged, pursue the good and focus on your work! Embrace hard, but meaningful work and stop worrying about anything else. Just persist and improve. Maybe you won't meet great success right away, maybe not at all, but do the work you know it must be done. Small victories are still victories and we are never fully aware of the impact of our actions. That being said, I wish you strength, resilience and the best of luck!

Interesting. That's a home run as far as the social requirements are concerned. Maybe music theory is too complicated for low IQ children? Or maybe the corporate commodification of music more generally requires an uncritical audience and the surest way there is to keep future generations ignorant about music theory and history. That's probably the case. The subject itself is the problem. Big Music doesn't want musically intelligent listeners. Turn on the radio or any of the Spotify suggestions. Music Theory is a forbidden subject of study in the 20s, I'm sorry to say.

We met in college. It was just dumb luck, honestly. We were both assigned to live in the same dorm, and we started chatting online , having connected initially on the FB page for the dorm. We chatted for months before we ever met in person. Then we moved in on the first day of school, and it was like we had known each other forever. It felt special.

Your wife is fulfilling a niche need targeted at children, who do not have disposable income.
E-girls are fulfilling (at least partially) the most ancient of needs, the highest of biological drives, for adult men who have plenty of disposable income (or at least income they have control over, with current debt levels it's questionable as to whether or not that income should be called disposable).

And? What skill is there in making a book for children? So many female """authors""" like this exist because they want to make something creative but they aren't actually creative. These books are mostly just crop and paste clipart with about 100 words in the whole thing. Some children's books become memorable classics, like the hungry caterpillar, I couldn't tell you why since they're all just retellings of basic morals in the most obvious way possible. I'm not saying children's books aren't useful, they just don't take that much skill to make.

Besides, "your" wife isn't the only one with artistic endeavours she's following, I made an album September last year, and I think I've made $9 in sales (minus whatever bandcamp takes out). I don't do it for fame or money, I do it because without a creative outlet I'd go insane. I don't make music for other people, I make it for myself, and if other people like it, good for them.

Ewhores have no internal satisfaction. Once the money is gone, they are empty again, and trust me, the money goes by the time they're 30 and the next batch of younger and hotter girls come in.
