Serials? What are science fiction serials, wondering the contemporary boob? Count Chocula on the deck of the Enterprise?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>No, no:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>serials are linked short stories or chapters of books issued piecemeal, one by one; they are the down side of the power and the glory that is Amazon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pascaleditions.com\/colintrafford\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kindle-Unlimited-discontent-300x211.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-235\" src=\"https:\/\/pascaleditions.com\/colintrafford\/wp-content\/uploads\/Kindle-Unlimited-discontent-300x211-300x211.jpg\" alt=\"Kindle-Unlimited-discontent-300x211\" width=\"300\" height=\"211\" \/><\/a>You see, in the olden days, when print publishers held sway, publication depended on whether said publishers felt your composition could make a buck.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Naturally it stood to reason that you could charge larger prices for larger books.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Think steak: if a reader was going to slap down a twenty for a book, it had better be <em>meaty<\/em> and\u00a0<i>thick<\/i>.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>So thick that ideally you could split the book into a three-parter or a quartet of titles, thus hooking the reader into buying several books instead of one. It&#8217;s a philosophy that still animates the folks at Tor and other sausage manufacturers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">But with the rise of the ebook, and particularly Amazon, all this changed.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Suddenly, incredibly, a writer could make a viable if hair\u2019s-breadth living selling directly via Amazon!<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>But selling what?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Page length had little meaning when books have no pages but are no more than one long scroll.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>A hundred page book or a thousand page book \u2014 they\u2019re both just a split-second download.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>And who has time to read a thousand pages anyway? We barely have time to digest a Tweet intelligibly. Easier (and more profitable) to sell ten short books than one long one. \u00a0So ebooks began to get shorter<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">And then Amazon applied the <i>coup de grace<\/i>:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Kindle Unlimited. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Kindle Unlimited allows subscribers to download all the books they want for $9.99 a month.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Authors still got their bit, but it came with two ominous catches:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>readers would have to read at least 10% of the book before the author got a shifting <i>standard<\/i> commission.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">So if you, Mr. Tolstoy, have written <i>War And Peace<\/i> and feel your eleven years of labor is worth at least fifty bucks a crack, that\u2019s fine.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 Stay out of Kindle Unlimited, and those buyers <\/span>not on Kindle Unlimited will pay the price you set.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 But a lot less people will see your book, and therefore fewer will buy it. Stay <em>with<\/em> Kindle Unlimited and, yes,\u00a0<\/span>if a KU downloader gets it, you get the same $1.33 (or whatever the cut-of-the-month is) that every other KU book gets.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 If enough KU downloaders get your book, it may work out for you. \u00a0But<\/span>\u00a0you don\u2019t get a cent unless the reader reads over a hundred pages of it (or whatever 10% comes to).<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Smart starving writers drew a swift conclusion.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Better to write <em>super<\/em>-short! \u00a0Better to issue a ten-page \u201cbook\u201d that get you your $1.33 after one page is read than to kill yourself writing vast masterpieces whose reader may drift off just before they reach the 10% finish line.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Of course readers may not be happy with ten piddling pages however little it costs, but here the multi-volume hook idea came to the rescue.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Why not consider each ten-pager a stand-alone section of a longer work?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>In fact, why not think of it as a television episode?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>People pay to see TV episodes, don\u2019t they? They do.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">No doubt you are thinking, \u201cHow mercenary! What about artistic integrity?\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Oh, please.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Artistic integrity is for writers whose husband or wife has a job.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The rest of literature goes where the money is.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 Thanks to Amazon<\/span>\u00a0nowadays it goes short.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Relax.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>This does not mean you\u2019re getting junk.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Ballard\u2019s great <i>Vermilion Sands<\/i> is a connected set of stories, as are many a fine SF collection, from Asimov\u2019s robot stories to the tales of Pirx the Pilot.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Art thrives in a multiplicity of forms; it\u2019s in the realm of content that you should dread the rule of capital.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">But that\u2019s another post.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">No doubt this will change. Amazon shifts gears faster than Scotty used to on TOS. One day no doubt writers will look back in anger <em>and<\/em> angora as they recall the algorithm-ordained pressure to write not long stories but a lot of them, and write not rounded and finished tales but cliff-hanging and interlinked ones.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Does this distort the vision of many an artist, sometimes fatally?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Sure.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 It&#8217;s pathetic that considerations other than the perfection of the work itself should matter. <\/span>But literary environments exercise natural selection no less than natural ones.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It\u2019s the task of radicals to bitch and foment change and change that environment, and the task of writers to accept the challenge and write as best they can under the circumstances.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">I regret to say that, as in the late USSR, &#8216;the best&#8217; means writing for the desk drawer and hoping future readers excavate your prose from the general dross. Too bad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lately I&#8217;ve been wallowing in a guilty enjoyment of archaic Flash Gordon serials. Serials?
