Genre versus Author Platform? Which Matters More? by C.S. Lakin — The Book Designer
How many times have you heard the concept that you have to have an author platform to sell books? But C. S. Lakin did an experiment, writing under a pen name, that shows that with the right genre, you don't necessarily have to have a platform to sell well.
The sad thing is that the genre used in the experiment was Western romance of the 'sweet' variety. I'm not sure I'd ever be able to pull that one off. I'm just wondering if there are other genres which sell well enough that my inability to do blogging and social media right wouldn't doom me.
