IWSG BLOG HOP: Looking Ahead at the Book Publishing Industry in 2030


Hello and Welcome to the Focused on Story Blog AND the Insecure Writers Support Group Blog Hop

Always on the first Wednesday of the month.

What is the Insecure Writer's Support Group?
Founded by author Alex J. Cavanaugh, the Insecure Writer’s Support Group offers support for writers and authors alike. It provides an online database, articles and tips, a monthly blog posting, a Facebook and Instagram group, Twitter, and a monthly newsletter.

The purpose of the group is 
* to share and encourage. 
* Writers can express doubts and concerns without fear of appearing foolish or weak. 
* Those who have been through the fire can offer assistance and guidance. 
*It’s a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds!

July 1 question - There have been many industry changes in the last decade, so what are some changes you would like to see happen in the next decade?
I would like to see more players than just amazon in the book distributing game. They need more competition. Yes, there are other distributors and I use them, but I understand amazon sells 80% of the ebook market.

The US Ebook Market
According to the  Publish/Drive blog--"With indie books (published without ISBNs), the Amazon market share accounts for 83% of US ebook purchases. The rest is almost entirely shared between Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and Google Play Books."
The article has many facts about indie publishing and publishing globally. Click Publish/Drive blog to read the entire article.
