And NOW we are witnessing a major shift in another huge market...Fiction! Not long ago, writing fiction (and actually getting it published) was often more challenging than pinning the tail on a moving donkey! But with the rise of self-publishing methods and the popularity of (and ease of producing) digital e-books, publishing fiction in ALL it's forms is NOW within reach of ANYONE with a story to tell! Take a look at the top five most popular fiction genres and what they're producing in sales:

Want a piece of that massive pie? Yeah...me too! And, BTW, those numbers do NOT include Children's Picture Books, Children's Literature or Teen and Young Adult books! Factor those in and, well, I think you get the story! 

Something Old, Something New...

There are MILLIONS of fiction stories and characters in EVERY genre available in the Public Domain. Most people ignore the majority of "old" fiction in favor of the classics. What that means for you and me, however, is an amazing opportunity to find fiction content that can be reinvented. 

Perhaps You’re Thinking...

I'm not a writer!

The good news is that you don't need to be. Because you're starting with existing, proven content, the pressure to create something new and original is gone. And the publishing process is just like ANY other type of book.

I don't know how to develop characters.

You don't need to! That work has already been done for you by qualified writers! I will show you where to find the content you need and how to turn it into unique new stories. Think of it as Mad Libs (a template word game where one player prompts others for a list of words to substitute for blanks in a story, before reading the often comical or nonsensical story aloud.) for fiction. It's all right in the Public Domain waiting for you!

There are over 20 primary genres (and many more sub-genres) to choose from. What interests you? Science Fiction? Horror? Romance? Fables? There is PLENTY to choose from!

Most fiction is based on archetypes that are programmed into all humanity. We naturally respond and relate to stories based on: The hero's quest, the poor becoming rich, the damsel in distress, the evil genius and others.
By using fiction from the Public Domain, we are simply presenting those stories in a fresh new way! Think about it...I'm quite sure Jane Austen NEVER imagined her story being rewritten to include zombies. Yet Pride and Prejudice and Zombies went on to become a best-selling novel AND movie!
