Give me some pointers on what you guys would be interested in...It is a funny astrology book.






Posted by magnetorebornGood. I wouldn't want to try to rock anyone else's ideas anyways.Posted by duchesslibroLol! Then I'm not telling you any of my potential book ideas xD
I'm all about authors coming up with their own ideas or finding inspiration with out asking anyone to guide them.. so already I'm uninterested.
If that helps any..click to expand

Posted by truecapGood response.
There are a number of books like this. What will set yours apart from the rest?
Go to the bookstore and on-line and see if you can find an angle that hasn't already been done.

Posted by duchesslibroDuchesslibro, your point can stand or sit down...Either way, I am still going to cater to my readers, by dishing out what they like. If you are not interested, FINE! there are plenty more people who will be...CHEERS!!
My point stands, feedback of what readers would enjoy is basically asking for ideas.. of what readers would like.

Unlike my rude one. lolclick to expand



Posted by duchesslibroHow can it be someone else's idea, if I came up with it? I want to know what my readers like, to keep moving in the right direction.
Maybe I'm wrong. It's just that catering to your readers by asking what people think you should write about sounds a lot like using other people's ideas.

Posted by tizianiIdk. Just seems like a synthetic version of inspiration imo. I prefer a more organic approach, if that makes any sense. Tiz, you don't do it the same from what I've observed. You present your idea and prompt specific questions versus a very general, What do you want to read about guyz?Posted by duchesslibroWhat's wrong with that?

It shows someone who's willing to figure out what their audience loves and what they want more of, rather than just writing something completely self involved with no real idea as to whether it's giving to anyone.

Posted by tizianiMaybe not though. For example, this fairly established internet sensation known as Jenna Marbles regularly asks her fans what they want her to do a video on next. To me, that's different. You and her have well established fan-bases you are focusing on and therefore it is pretty awesome that you seek to cater to them.Posted by duchesslibroOh I see what you mean. But that's just because I don't test on DXP. Here I just post thoughts.Posted by tizianiIdk. Just seems like a synthetic version of inspiration imo.

Well when I did my latest book, it was only after I'd tested it with my own subsribers. Thousands of women on my newsletter. If you'd seen the whole process you would have thought yeah... how artificial. But it's necessary to know your audience.click to expand


Posted by tizianiExactly where I am coming from... I like your way of thinking.Posted by duchesslibroOh I see what you mean. But that's just because I don't test on DXP.

Posted by duchesslibroSpeaking of which, That is exactly what I am doing....Only my work is not yet published. My reasoning for creating this thread, is not to get ideas from people, but to kind of stir the pot on the ingredients that I had already conjured up. sort of to suit the masses tastes.
The difference is building on what you've already conjured up by your own merit. At that point you're nurturing the community you've already created. @tiziani

Posted by duchesslibroTo each his own.....Welp, I see no harm in what I am doing..... I will have a greater fan base, if I do things my way, and not give in to unconstructive criticism......Posted by Easha23000usNot exactly.Posted by duchesslibroSpeaking of which, That is exactly what I am doing....Only my work is not yet published.

To create a community you might start with say, a blog, gauge interest, react to your growing community if people are into what you offer.click to expand

Posted by HarleyTwinFlameYou should write a book....I bet that it would be hilarious!!!
Just get high then write astrology books. People will love you regardless of how far out you sound. .. Isnt that what Linda G. did?


Posted by ManilaViceYou are right...I was gearing more towards the female population, but I guess I should stay neutral.....
if i were to do it i would like heavy research presented in a light way with movie references.
i'd prefer it to be gender neutral coz astrology is already kinda gay. you don't see guys going "bro check out this new book divastrology 101!"
an ascendant book seems marketable as well.

Posted by Easha23000usI was being serious but not in a mean way.Posted by HarleyTwinFlameYou should write a book....I bet that it would be hilarious!!!
