Author photos.

How many /lit/izens are published? If so? What's your author photo? If unpublished, submit a pic to be your dustcover photo (no pepes)
Bonus question: is it wrong that I don't want my picture on my work? (Not fugly)

If you work at a convenience store now why do you still post so many pictures of your gas station? Why not post pictures of your customers at the convenience store?

Also why don't you want to put your face on your book? Do you deride fame?

why are alt lit authors so smoking hot?

Simple, because their authorship is based more upon how they are perceived socially then how they actually write.

Same here. Rarely take pictures of myself so I tried it out this morning and threw the contrast up so high it doesn't even look like me. That might be the way to go. THAT or use an icon of some sort

fair enough, though including your picture (if you're attractive) still seems great for grabbing attention.

fuck editors. you've already written the equivalent of a fucking skyscraper, so just drop the curtains.

try publishing a chapter every week on your own website and you can earn bank from advertisements. you can advertise on scifi or fantasy lit forums or something until it gets going. this is what asians do and they live comfy fucking lives writing shitty light novels at a slow pace.

Just print it all off and start handing it out at college campuses around the country while wearing a mask.

They'll be drawn in by your mysterious aura and then captivated by your story.

BTW what is your book about?

treat it as a light novel/web novel

you publish it at your own pace and build up readership as you edit things

when it becomes popular and you earn money from ads you contact an editor. you have all the comments and suggestions and ideas and things left by your readers on what should be done/what they liked most, etc for when you begin a major edit
