How do I write a multimillion dollar book franchise? What makes them work? What doesn't?
>>24683639Shit out some slop fiction or grifter "current issue" nonfiction just got to churn and burn.
>>24683639Have friends in the publishing industry
>go to tvtropes>check what the books you try to imitate have used>just put that into your formula but make it a bit different and voilaYou got the recipe, it's not going to be original, but there's a chance if you hit the right time and make it unique enough.

>>24683639The best way to make a popular franchise is to first try to get good at creating actual artistic works. Then once you've dabbled enough in it to establish a personal style for yourself, you then try to create a great version of a genre you like.It's like learning how to be a great chef to then cook great slop. There's an art to great slop. Learn how to try to tap into that artistic urge, instead of cynically copying successful works.Basically, you first learn to be a great writer for yourself, then lose the ego to try to write a great book of a genre a sizable audience will enjoy.
>>246836391. Decide your target audience. If women, dark romance beast sex. If men, fantasy where the MC gets the perfect mommy daughter wife manic pixie dream girl girlfriend. 2. Pay an influencer to tell their cattle I mean followers that it's a good book
>>24684749There's a singer I'm a bit obsessed with who released a new album recently, and she never gets reaction videos on youtube, but then several random reactors did a review of one of her performances, and I was really happy seeing one raving about how good she is and how she's an "artist", then I watched another one and they also said she's an "artist" in a way that made me realize I was just had by paid promoters. Nothing is real everything sucks and we all die.

>>24683639jD vance's book. You can try writing a far right coming of age novel of a youth gang Nazi biker or something
>>24683639If we knew, at least quite a few of us would be rich. Rowling, Dan Brown, Coelho, Collins, Stephen King, John Green, Patterson, they're really all so different. Just being accessible, playing along with clichés or appealing to a specific demographic's fantasies isn't enough. It takes some luck, good editorial and publishing support, good publicity, and preferably a franchise that can sell more than just books. Most of JK's wealth came from toys, films, theme parks, games and everything else associated to the IP. Book sales don't really pay handsomely. But whether you're writing slop or it's a passion product, without the aforementioned conditions you'll just be rewarded with the joy of having your book published.
