Of all the mistakes new authors make when planning a crowdfunder, one of the easiest, and most common, is approaching exclusive rewards as though they were bonuses.

What many get right is focusing on a single book to headline the campaign first. But the same bad habit that causes infinite manuscript polishing syndrome kicks in, and getting the main book’s presentation perfect dominates these authors’ attention. So only when it’s past time to start building out the campaign’s rewards do they get around to thinking about other items.

When faced with that last-minute crunch, most inexperienced crowdfunders lurch to one of these opposite extremes:

Apparently, everybody forgot to tell bookstores.

Books-A-Million, America’s #2 bookstore chain, is having another banner year. Customer transactions are up, new stores have exceeded expectations, and the company plans to open fifteen more locations.

And even more surprising, it isn’t any overhyped self-help book or celebrity biography that’s driving physical book sales.

It’s good old fiction.

Along with manga and graphic novels, fiction has been one of the biggest causes of Books-A-Million’s growth this year. CEO Terry Finley described sales as “an inch deep and a mile wide.”

That statement suggests the results aren’t coming from one or two blockbuster titles propping up the rest of their business.

Readers are buying lots of different books. And the latest numbers suggest this growth isn’t limited to a single bookstore chain. New publishing industry data released yesterday show total sales rose 3.9 percent during the first half of 2026. And contra the sticks-in-the-mud who tell us only nonfiction is important, adult fiction grew more than twice as fast.

And the story doesn’t end there. Sales increased 8.2 percent through June, including a 19.3 percent jump that month alone. Not to be left out, trade paperback sales were also up 8.4 percent.

That’s before we even get into manga …

Ten years after readers made my hit novel Souldancer a Dragon Award winner, I’m bringing it back in a definitive hardcover edition alongside the new companion novella The Other Side of Fear.

Back it now on Kickstarter.

But all too often, they don’t take enough time to think through how the characters will solve those problems.

Take a fantasy novel in which the hero needs to enter a fortified city unnoticed. The guards know his face, his enemies control the gates, and getting caught means death. That’s a compelling predicament with hefty consequences for failure.

How’s he gonna pull this one off? readers wonder as they eagerly flip pages.

Then it turns out the hero has an old smuggler buddy. That smuggler happens to have a secret tunnel into the city, and he agrees to lead our hero through it to repay an old favor.

Problem solved, right?

Superficially, yes. Each part of that sequence is plausible. The smuggler and his debt to the hero might even have been established earlier.

Yet that scene can still leave the reader cold.

Why?

It was easy to dismiss the analog revival as nostalgia …

… until Zoomers likewise started buying old media.

A Canadian physical media retailer says his video game sales have surged since Sony announced their ill-conceived plan to stop making new PlayStation discs. Some physical game prices have jumped dramatically as buyers scramble for copies.

Nor is this phenomenon limited to games. American CD sales jumped almost 46 percent in the first half of 2026. Vinyl climbed to 21 percent. Sales of other supposedly obsolete formats like DVDs and cassettes rose more than 73 percent.

To be sure, streaming still dwarfs all physical media. But consumers are rediscovering what the convenience of digital media blinded them to these past years:

Streaming killed theaters, executives said. Zoomers would rather watch their phones. Besides, making original movies was too risky. The studios convinced themselves they had no choice but to spend ever-larger sums exploiting familiar franchises.

Then 2026 came, and Hollywood had its best summer in years.

How good? Domestic box office receipts hit $4.61 billion between May and August, up 26 percent from last summer. Which was the biggest since 2013. Though to be precise, higher ticket prices mean attendance is still below pre-Corona-chan levels.

But the total take is the least interesting part of the story. What’s far more important is how Hollywood pulled off such a surprise comeback.

Because this summer, moviegoers broke the industry’s most cherished, and wrongheaded, assumptions about them.

Twenty-six-year-old Curry Barker made Obsession for less than $1 million. Before directing a feature, Barker and his brother amassed millions of views on their YouTube horror shorts.

Now Barker has parlayed that millions-strong audience into more than $500 million in ticket sales.

Nor is he the only one.

LAST CALL FOR THE LABOR DAY SPECIAL

Finding readers first and bringing ambitious projects directly to you is what made the Souldancer 10th Anniversary Edition possible. And today is the last day to claim the special Labor Day Bundle on Kickstarter.

The Labor Day Special ends tonight. Don’t wait. Claim it on Kickstarter.

You wrote a book, usually polishing it for years before working up the courage to submit it anywhere. Then you spent just as long querying literary agents and acquisitions editors until one of them finally deigned to give you a chance and open the gates.

Even if you made it that far, which only 1 percent of aspiring authors did, your writing career wasn’t made yet. Signing a book deal and getting an advance didn’t mean you were a full member of the club. No, you were a trial member on double secret probation. If your first book didn’t earn out its advance, the publisher would activate its escape clause, and you’d be shown the door.

Often, having your career uprooted before it could bloom was a severe mercy. Because of the half of authors whose first books did earn out, 80 percent or more got stuck on the midlist. Each new book they submitted amounted to a new application for their own job. And though their profitable books financed publisher’s pet authors’ six or seven-figure advances, one flop could still mean curtains for midlisters’ careers.

But that’s painting with broad strokes. Let’s put some hard numbers to the anecdotal shorthand.

As of the early 2010s, back when the last class of breakout authors were landing their first book deals, the typical publishing contract featured these terms:

• The publisher got all rights to Book 1, with the right of first refusal on Books 2 and 3.

• They also got 85 percent of the cover price on each sale, with the author getting a 15 percent royalty

• which the author would not see a cent of until his advance was paid back out of his 15 percent on each sale

• said advance typically being around $2500 for a first-time author.

Let’s walk through the process set up by the contract.

What many overlook at first is following that advice can cause another problem.

You’d be surprised how many novel drafts have eventful scenes that nevertheless start blurring into each other a few chapters in.

It’s easy to miss the culprit. Each scene reads just fine on its own. So the problem only reveals itself when you examine multiple chapters in sequence.

And that’s when you realize they all have the same level of intensity.

That problem can sound rather abstract, so let’s unpack what it means.

Think about a fantasy novel in which the hero gets wise to assassins on his trail. They spring an ambush he narrowly escapes. Afterward, he interrogates the traveling companion who’d been acting a little too friendly. What he learns sets him on a perilous search deep behind enemy lines.

You’ll notice that plot advancement isn’t the problem. Plenty of interesting stuff happens.

What you might have missed the first time is that in each of those scenes, the protagonist is angry, frightened, or desperate. Which makes the story come off as monotonous.

That sounds counterintuitive, right? Shouldn’t keeping the pressure on your characters maintain suspense?

An emerging crisis that’s been the talk of education and publishing is children’s loss of interest in books.

If you’ve spent any time moving in those circles, you’re familiar with the usual suspects. Phones, video games, social media are commonly named culprits. Others pin the blame on Gen Alpha’s fruit fly attention span. Or schools indoctrinating kids to project their feelings onto text instead of teaching them to extract meaning from it.

But new reporting suggests we may be casting blame on the wrong generation.

A HarperCollins study found that only 41 percent of British children under age five were frequently read to at home last year.

That’s a significant decline from 64 percent in 2012. And it suggests that millions of kids were robbed of the chance to fall in love with reading over the course of a decade.

But wait, it gets worse.

Only 36 percent of children between the ages of five and seven were regularly read to at home. And among kids aged eight to ten, the figure plunged to 22 percent.

The natural question is why?

And parents are not going to like the answer.

If you were an author, film maker, or musician, you needed a publisher, a studio, or a record label to grant access to an audience. Even if you knew exactly what you wanted to create, production and distribution required underwriting from big firms with deep pockets.

Then an unexpected sea change hit the industry. Come the dawn of the twenty-first century, millions of creators started writing their own tickets.

Kickstarter has been at the forefront of the indie revolution. A look at their seventeen-year history offers compelling evidence of how far crowdfunding has come. More than 24 million people have now backed projects on the platform, and roughly a third have supported more than one.

It’s a striking reminder of how art used to get made for centuries: patronage. The Church, the nobility, merchant families, and governments provided resources to artisans in exchange for the works they wanted to foster.

The modern entertainment industry replaced visionary patrons invested in their cultures with corporate culture beholden to investors. Instead of impressing a Medici to get funding, modern artists had to convince talent scouts, agents, and editors that they were fellow travelers. Access to audiences became concentrated in even fewer hands.

Now, the advent of digital distribution and crowdfunding have democratized market access. Instead of courting a billion-dollar megacorp, or one patron with $100,000, a creator can find 1,000 patrons with $100: a new take on a venerable model, which I and others call neopatronage.

And seventeen years in, the old gatekeepers can’t dismiss the new patronage as a passing fad.

The latest development in the digital game ownership controversy shows Sony have yet to learn that lesson.

When a PlayStation customer clicks a button clearly labeled “Buy,” hands Sony money, and downloads a game, does he actually own what he just bought?

Sony’s lawyers argue the answer is obviously not.

A group of California gamers recently filed a proposed class action suit alleging that Sony misleads customers with terms like “Buy Now” and “Confirm Purchase” despite Sony claiming that PlayStation Store transactions just grant revocable licenses.

Sony responded that its disclosures already make the arrangement sufficiently clear and that reasonable customers shouldn’t think they acquire ownership of digital games.

Sony’s Software Product License Agreement is even more blunt: “The Software is licensed to you, not sold.”

Sony’s lawyers argue that this language, along with disclosures presented during checkout, satisfies California’s digital goods transparency requirements.

Now, maybe the court will agree; maybe not.

But regardless of any legal finding, Sony’s real problem will remain. In fact, winning could make it worse.

So authors who love to write short stories were told to stuff them in trunks, use them as newsletter freebies, or stitch them together into novels.

But now, short fiction may be on the cusp of a renaissance nobody saw coming.

The Bookseller reports growing interest in short stories. Readers are getting excited about shorter books and slim fiction. Which raises an important question:

Why did short fiction lose commercial viability to begin with?

It wasn’t that readers always preferred longer novels. Short fiction used to be everywhere. Pulp magazines amassed huge readerships and launched authors who are still household names.

Arthur Conan Doyle, H.P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, Ray Bradbury. All made their bones writing stories you can read in one sitting.

Then the industry killed the magazine market that gave short fiction distribution. Attention went to paperback novels, and authors changed focus accordingly.

So it’s not that readers suddenly started hating short stories. Instead, that form of storytelling lost its main delivery method.

But distribution models aren’t set in stone. And as of this writing, changes are underway that could bring short stories back into favor.

Tell me if this picture is familiar: You send in the manuscript. Your editor sends it back with typos fixed, sentences streamlined, and plot holes filled.

That’s a common misconception. And it explains why many new authors view professional editing as a luxury.

If my prose is already polished, they reason, I can scrimp on editing and increase my budget for covers or ads.

What they miss is that many of professional editing’s greatest benefits have little to do with fixing grammar or even plot structure.

Consider this writing paradox: By the time you finish your first draft, you may have spent hundreds or thousands of hours on it.

Which means you know all about it. Probably too much.

Because from your perspective deep inside the book, the motives behind every writing decision seem self-evident. Information readers will need to understand the plot may be missing, but you won’t know, because your brain automatically fills in every detail. Even the most confusing paragraph can make perfect sense to you, because you know what it’s supposed to say.

Many authors who recognize this quandary turn to beta readers. And don’t get me wrong; good beta readers can certainly level up your game. But nine times out of ten, new authors enlist their family, friends, and like-minded writers for beta-reading duty. Which just kicks the objectivity problem one step down the road.

Robots, they told us, would replace all manual laborers. Computers would enable undreamed-of means of communication. And advances in genetic engineering might bring the advent of a whole new humanity.

Every new invention offered writers inspiration to imagine a radically different world.

Then the one change nobody saw coming happened: Technology started outpacing sciffy writers’ predictions of its effects.

Now everybody walks around with more processing power in their pockets than NASA used to guide the moon landing. Yet people remain obstinately human. Our lives still revolver around family religion, and nation.

And the old stories weather every technological upheaval. Because it turns out you can’t change human nature. So the questions those evergreen myths answer will never be obsolete.

That tension makes for some of the richest science fiction subject matter. Unfortunately, Late Modern sci fi tends to envision the future as Year Zero. As they see it, the advent of the Singularity will sweep away all that came before, obliging civilization to start over from a blank sheet of paper.

And somehow, what’s drawn on it every time is a worldwide Los Angeles with more neon and worse weather.

You call that what it is: A lazy waste of a respected genre’s potential.

Think about what does - and doesn’t - happen when new technologies cause widespread disruptions.

“Why should we publish you?”

So writers devoted untold hours drafting query letters and courting agents. It’s hard to conceive of now, but not too long ago, getting in front of an audience meant signing a book deal with gatekeepers in Manhattan. That meant convincing them your book deserved access to their paper distribution monopoly.

Because as author J.A. Konrath observed, at the end of the day, oldpub was never in the story business. They’re in the lumber trade …

… which has become apparent as oldpub is forced to contend with authors who already have their own readerships.

A Bookseller report on the growing number of successful indie novels describes oldpub houses having to change their longstanding strategy. Now that newpub authors have learned to build audiences of their own, the tables have turned.

Once, big publishers demanded authors explain why oldpub should sign them.

Now, successful newpub authors are demanding to know why they should sign with oldpub.

After all, Disney’s name graces movies, television networks, cruise ships, theme parks, streaming services, and enough merchandise to fill all the empty storefronts in your town’s dead mall.

Surely, MBAs would say, that empire sprang from brilliant brand management.

Yet history tells a different story. Instead of setting out to build a brand, Walt Disney resolved to create characters people would gladly spend hours with. Their stories came first, Walt’s empire followed.

These days, studios and publishers ignore that lesson. They’re far more apt to begin with grandiose plans for a cinematic universe nobody asked for. Somewhere, probably near the end of the planning meeting, somebody remembers that a story should probably accompany the product.

For decades, Dark Sun fans awaited their grimy, gory setting’s return. Wizards of the Coast technically made an attempt in 2010, but that was Fourth Edition, so it didn’t count.

Now, WotC has finally answered longstanding demand. The postapocalyptic wasteland of Athas is coming back in 2027.

Wizards even took the extra step of billing Dark Sun 3.0 as mature content. The prelaunch marketing campaign featuring shrink-wrapped books positions Dark Sun as the hardcore setting for grown-ups who can handle dark themes.

And it was working. Early buzz spread through the gaming scene like wildfire.

Then the game’s executive producer opened his mouth.

Greg Bilsland told TTRPG Insider that the new Dark Sun is being run through even more sensitivity readers than usual. It is ostensibly their input that led him to say that the setting will not need to “focus on elements such as slavery” to feel oppressive. “There are other forms of oppression out there,” he said.

Translated from Corporatese, the company that disowned the original setting as “problematic” is now bringing it back after sanding off (pun intended) the unapproved kinds of misery.

The problem is that Slavery was not window dressing in Dark Sun. Athas’ city-states ran on the peculiar institution. The economy, the social hierarchy; the whole texture of daily life was informed by it.

The protagonist has a clear goal, and his motive for pursuing it make sense. With each scene, he moves closer to what he wants.

Perhaps a little too close. Because beta readers complain the hero waltzes from victory to victory.

So the author does what comes naturally: He raises the stakes.

The villain gets a power boost. Then he moves on from attacking the the hero’s hometown to threatening the whole kingdom.

Surely, the author assumes, readers will find the story gripping. But for some reason they can’t articulate, they still say the protagonist is coasting.

The real reason is a common yet subtle difference pro editors have learned to spot right away: Higher stakes do not automatically mean higher difficulty.

Think about it. A character can face down catastrophic consequences without ever having to make a hard choice. Sure, readers may grasp the severity of the situation on an intellectual level. But tension is emotional, and they know when they’re not feeling it.

But since one word not in big tech’s vocabulary is “enough”, Adobe kept pushing to further leverage their indispensability.

A viral post on X by author John A. Douglas offers us a striking example. John downloaded an Adobe free trial, canceled before it expired, but still got billed for a subscription. When he tried to cancel again, Adobe slapped him with an early termination fee for $99.95.

Ordinarily, one billing dispute from a fleeced customer wouldn’t tell us much about a corporation. To err is human, no one at a megacorp is as dumb as everyone at a megacorp, and social media has a way of magnifying edge cases.

But what makes John’s case an exception, to the tune of 1.6 million views and counting, is Adobe’s recent settlement of a federal lawsuit over similar dodgy subscription practices.

The Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission accused Adobe of hiding early termination fees. Regulators alleged that the company actively put hurdles in customers’ way when they tried to cancel.

Adobe denied wrongdoing but agreed to pay a $75 million penalty and give away $75 million worth of free services. Despite this slap on the wrist, Adobe’s annual plans still have early termination fees approximating 50 percent of leftover subscription balances.

To understand how we got to the point where big software firms can mug their customers and effectively bribe the feds to avoid admitting fault, it’s helpful to remember how people once bought software.

And all the while, independent film makers produced videos in their bedrooms, aspiring to break into “real” show business.

Now, after multiple years of surprise flops from Big Franchise X and one season of YouTubers-turned-director blowing up out of left field, Hollywood is seeking to hire independents.

Oh, how the tables have turned.

Last week, Rolling Stone divulged studios’ growing interest in YouTubers who’ve amassed considerable audiences outside the studio system. Hollywood has turned from paying influencers for film promotions to giving them their own movie deals.

For more than a century, hopeful entertainers had to convince industry gatekeepers that they deserved access to the mass audience. Now, at last, the creator economy has flipped the old arrangement on its head.

A kid with a camera and an internet connection can shoot his own material. He can get financing on Kickstarter, distribution on YouTube, and marketing through social media.
