Publishing Nihilism: the belief that the pursuit of authorship is increasingly meaningless or hopeless.
How many of you have felt this recently?
How many of you have been feeling this way for years?
In today’s edition of the Beyond the Book Podcast, I want to offer an alternative vision for our collective future as authors.
One of Publishing Boundlessness rather than Publishing Scarcity or Publishing Nihilism.
In challenging, uncertain times, it’s normal to feel more hopeless and fearful than ever.
These feelings are important. But if we don’t also choose to be optimistic and choose to imagine what a better future and life could look like, then creating a better world becomes nearly impossible.
Luckily, we have stories to help us do that.
Your stories will help hundreds of millions of people across the world feel hope, peace, and joy in their lives.
This is my story for you – the story of what could be. The story of publishing’s future. The story of how tomorrow, despite the challenges of today, will be better than ever.
If you need some hope, positivity, and a refreshing perspective in your author life, then listen to the latest episode of Beyond the Book 👇
Note: This week’s essay will be shared with you tomorrow morning. This podcast was a few days late, but there will be a new episode this week, as usual! I took a few days to rest and reflect after the Kickstarter for Author Marketing Superpowers and attending a social media marketing conference last week.
Back at it now!
As always, thank you all for the support. I believe in us. And I believe in you.
Together we are boundless,
Michael Evans
