I’m glad we’re all doing this individually, since we can’t actually convince the six people who matter to do it in the way that matters. But never forget that it’s a publisher problem, much more than an author problem.

all the cool kids WILL be reading Where Fire Reigns, so preorder that to be ahead of the curve
y'all heard of this book THE WEST PASSAGE
all the cool kids are reading THE WEST PASSAGE
Yesss
I rarely get/read a book around the time it comes out and am frequently picking up books from 5+ years ago. Hype the backlist!
It’s a structural issue!!
Anyway, we live in Hell
I KNOW preorders are super important for books, but they're also not how consumers find products, so like... just remember the long tail.
People want to go into a place, pick up a thing, and enjoy it. Build more infrastructure around the period of time when readers can actually be consumers.
