Why I’m Not Publishing My Novels & the pressure to publish in the writing community

TIMESTAMPS: 0:34 - WHY I DON'T WANT TO PUBLISH FOSTERED 0:42 - Reason 1: I am uninterested in publishing, the books' age & genre categories, and the books are too disjointed 2:11 - Reason 2: It would be an insult to my current craft to put out work from the early stages of my process 3:10 - Reason 3: I am an advocate for consent when it comes to sharing work. What I share is what I want to share 3:30 - Reason 4: I love that these books are unpublished 3:42 - COMMON QUESTIONS I GET ABOUT NOT PUBLISHING 3:42 - Question 1: Isn't writing to shelve a waste of time? 4:49 - Counterpoint 1: We have gotten into a poor habit of equating a work's value with whether or not it is published, AKA monetizable due to capitalism & the publish or perish mentality 9:10 - Question 2: But you could earn money! (counterpoint same as Q1) 9:51 - Question 3: But I bet it's good! Don't be so insecure 10:33 - Counterpoint 3: We need to normalize allowing writers to make the decisions they deem necessary for their own work and cease the imposition of judgement, especially upon people we don't know in real life (evidence: parasocial relationships) 14:48 - Question 4: How do you become so in love with something you'll forget about in six months? The work will have no legacy. 16:00 - Counterpoint 4: We need to stop treating shelving a project as an act done out of failure and self-hatred 18:31 - THE PRESSURE TO PUBLISH AS A RESULT OF THE EMERGENCE OF THE ONLINE WRITING COMMUNITY 19:05 - The writing community needs to address the obscene pressures to publish ingrained in blog posts, vlogs, etc and particularly the impact that may have on younger writers 20:32 - The online writing community and commodification 22:05 - The negative effects consumerist culture on authortube and other writing platforms on young writers 23:26 - The responsibility of authortubers and other content creators to be aware of their influence 24:52 - The online writing community as a means to an end (money) rather than a community & the necessary balance of community & profit REFERENCES: Neil Kakkar: "A Short History of Capitalism" https://bit.ly/32Shd4Z Wikipedia: "Publish or perish" https://bit.ly/3bp032E Seema Rawar & Sanjay Meena: "Publish or perish: Where are we headed?" https://bit.ly/3lGO0CJ Find a Psychologist: "Parasocial Relationships: The Nature of Celebrity Fascinations" https://bit.ly/3bp48nv Rebecca Swift: "Creativity and commerce" https://bit.ly/32SLhNY (my apologies for getting Swift's name wrong it is Swift not Smith!!!)
