Would you read a book on Medium if it were posted one chapter at a time?
This is an atypical post where I ask for your comments and feedback instead of sharing my ideas.
I have wanted to self-publish a book.
I have considered selling ebooks on Amazon Kindle but want to explore other options.
I have pondered the idea of writing a technical book on Medium and releasing it one chapter at a time.
I could use the Kindle Vella service, but it is best known for fiction stories. It may not be appropriate for a technical book.
I like the idea of “publishing” a technical book on Medium, where my primary focus can be content.
In turn, I might get rewarded if the audience finds my book chapters useful.
My success metric would not be book sales but rather engagement with you, the Medium audience.
I am curious whether technical people prefer to read content as a complete book or a series of posts.
Please leave a comment and share your thoughts. Much thanks!
