I will say that I think succeeding as an author requires business skills that most of them appear to lack. Amazon has started getting better at notifying me that there are new books available by an author from whom I've previously purchased books, but for a long time, and even now, I'd say most authors that I read aren't even getting me on an email list to eg tell me there's more stuff of theirs that I can buy. That's really business 101 and they're just not doing it. It's weird.
