The Power of Curation and Understanding the Book Publishing Industry

At the beginning, new writers are advised to act as curators rather than focusing on their own ideas, as curation helps in developing taste and refining consumption. By curating for themselves, individuals shape their own education, which ultimately enables them to share curated content as a public resource. This concept extends beyond writing into other forms of art, as seen in the influence of African art on Picasso's work. Delving into the book publishing industry has revealed that the driving forces behind book sales remain a mystery due to the lack of data and transparency, presenting an opportunity for individuals to make breakthroughs in the industry through research and analysis.
