How Indie Authors Market Literary Fiction, with Orna Ross

Many literary fiction authors feel caught in the middle, shut out of a traditional literary establishment that foregrounds their genre, but also out of indie advice urging marketing methods that feel misaligned. Orna Ross explores the psychology of literary writers who feel uneasy about selling their work, shares her own marketing shifts as a literary novelist and poet, and explains why literary fiction is not a special case—simply another genre with its own reader psychology and buying behavior.

Why IndieReader’s New Era Matters for Authors — And Why I’m Proud to Recommend Them

In a publishing landscape overflowing with voices, noise, and endless competition, indie authors often find themselves fighting twice as hard just to be seen. Yet even in the midst of that struggle, independent creators continue to rise, push boundaries, and redefine what storytelling can look like. That spirit — bold, determined, and undeniably creative — is exactly why IndieReader’s next chapter matters so much. And why I’m genuinely proud to talk about them today. Disclaimer: This […]

The cover of Weaving In The Ends which has a graphic of two hands knitting blue yard set against an ominously shadowed backdrop, next to headline: "NEVER underestimate knitters" and a a text excerpt:
"Metal glinted between Serena's fingers, and she flung something at the front door. Two long, thin rods hit the wooden jamb one after the other and stuck there, quivering.
     She nodded at them while gazing at Felicity. “You taught him to use those. Do you still like a challenge?”
      Dee was staring at the door. “Are those  knitting needles?” he asked.
       From the safety of the office Cee said, “Makes you think about her hobby a little differently, doesn’t it?”
       “It’s a craft, not a hobby,” Felicity said impatiently. “And yes, Serena, I do still like a challenge.”
Below the book cover is the tagline, "Knitting, romance, and dangerous men. Also chosen family shenanigans, cocoa, and cats."

So there’s a new Guardian interview with Jimmy Wales out (to promote his new book, with an affiliate link for the Guardian in it) titled “‘People thought I was a communist doing this as a non-profit’: is Wikipedia’s Jimmy Wales the last decent tech baron?”* that’s making the rounds here.

For those who only read the headlines, here’s a TL;DR: No. There is no such thing as decent tech baron, that’s an oxymoron.

From the article itself:

“‘I’m actually quite in favour of business and capitalism and all that.’ (He’s currently president of Fandom, an ad-funded entertainment site that hosts user-edited pages, owned by private equity firm TPG Capital).”

And:

“Does he still regard Musk, the world’s richest man, as a friend? ‘Friends is probably a little strong. I mean, not, not that –‘ he sputters, editing himself in real time. ‘I want to be careful how I say that, only because I’ve met him maybe five or six times, so that I would be overstating to say friends. We’ve been friendly, and even now he’s much nicer to me in private than you might think. I mean, he’s got a big public persona, and that’s a little bit different from the private Elon, who I think is more thoughtful.’”

Also, some more background:
