This is possibly one of the best posts I’ve seen in a long time about what it takes to become a bestselling author. Whenever someone hits it big we always want to investigate how they did it, analyze their methods and then apply what we’ve learned to our own efforts. There is nothing wrong with that. But in the end it’s about the work and the book – but it’s also about Luck. Pure and simple. The analysis of this post will show you that sometimes breaking all the rules is sometimes a good thing, because these days there are no rules.
Enjoy this post!
