Ask F. Gardner.

Why? He writes like a 15 year old, is that the secret?

>>17226494
That's MOOLA not DOOLA, dipshit.

>>17226654
I invent my own words, like Shakespeare... saltbrain

Write heavily corproatized trash or immature YA for the masses and dedicate yourself to marketing it. No one needs to read it, only buy it.

>>17226594
No. He is based.

>>17226711
How should I market it? Parallel write Literotica fan fiction to release a month after?

write young adult fiction/nonfiction that attacks white privilege and props up POC

use a pseudonym that sounds like a black or jewish woman

Proceed as if you were a cult leader: Think of a simple wish-fulfillment fantasy, one of revenge, or magical power, or better still both of them in combination. Then imagine humoring people having such a fantasies daily, in a repetitive or formulaic or serial way that combines a hypnotic effect with images & characters just sufficiently realistic to lend the whole thing a certain air of plausibility to a mildly retarded child or adult reader with a nasty streak they've become accustomed to pretending is a virtue, or some kind of virtuosity awaiting its moment to manifest. The key ingredient is that the motives & psychology of the characters must in no way resemble those found in reality, since that would undo the trick that keeps them in thrall. That's also to say, do roughly what Rowling does, but dressed up in some other fashion so it doesn't look like a total rip-off, even though it's the same general kind of trash, like what capeshit is.

Imagine getting filtered by F. Gardner.
How embarrassing!

To be fair, you need an insanely high IQ to understand and appreciate his books.

Idk be a vlogger girl and write a very low effort memoir with lowest common denominator self help sprinkled throughout

Compare yourself to F. Gardner do what he did to achieve success. Turn yourself and your books into memes.
