Legal

[close] Hi guys, Would you like to be part of a literary experiment? I wrote an experimental novel. It's a psychological legal suspense with some romance. I developed a narration technique that you have never seen before. I tried to look for a literary agent in the US, but the answer was the same from all those I had contacted: publishers make business rather than artistic or creative decisions. They see my narration technique as experimental, and therefore not a sure thing for sales. Agents and publishers are only interested in books that are easy to sell and won't spend time reading a book that dares to try something new. This means the audience won't have a chance to judge this original style for themselves unless I self-publish. I am tempted to do so because I would love to submit this novel to the readers and find out whether my technique works or not. But I also know that, once I start down the path of self-publishing, it makes it even more unlikely that I will find an agent willing to consider it. So, this is my plan. If this experiment is able to pique the interest of at least 2000 Goodreads users, I will offer a special launch on Amazon so you will be able to download the book for free. If you believe that writing is about more than just bottom lines, you can show your support for my initiative simply by joining this group and downloading the book when I set up the freebie. That's all the group members will be asked to do. I worked for 3 years of my life on this project and I'm happy to give it for free because, at this point, I would like to prove that basing decisions on marketing and sales isn't necessarily the best strategy. I would rather hear from readers whether they like it or not. But if this technique is not interesting, well, it will mean that agents and publishers are right. Thank you in advance to those who decide to join this group.
