RE: A Warning for Aspiring Writers
I was just going to say that this isn't necessarily true, but I see @rhondak already mentioned this isn't a hard and fast rule. I know my sister got her first book deal on a book that she had posted all the chapters on her blog, and that didn't seem to impact anything.
If you don't know, Jane Friedman is one of the leading authorities on mainstream publishing. I concur with her assessment here. Mileage may vary, but blogging a novel is not a risk I want to take, or one I want any of our Steemhouse authors to take. Our acquisitions editors would very likely reject any novel that already appears in its entirety on the blockchain, or anywhere else.

yeah certainly not any reason to take a risk on it. Thanks for the link
