#WritersCoffeeClub 9/24. What are your biggest bugbears with publishing?

My God, where to start?

How about the idea that you have to write only one type of thing to be successful and target your 'niche'. My favourite authors write cross-genre and I will too!

Or that you MUST read enough recent books to find at least two similar enough to your own to be comps. It's deeply ableist.

I am well-read. I have a fucking Eng Lit degree. I'm also fucking SICK. I'm lucky if I finish one book a year!>
