Small Batch Publishing Approach
The episode delves into the concept of small batch publishing as an alternative to traditional methods like crowdfunding or pitching to publishers. The focus is on running a preorder campaign through personal domains in limited quantities, like 100 or 200 copies, to build a grassroots community.
