’s Substack Author Insider is one of the Substacks I read or listen to/watch every single week. We’re so inundated with AI-generated slop about creativity, writing, and publishing. Author Insider is all about integrity and brings us real cutting-edge ideas and glimpses into the future of writing and publishing.
This was such a fun conversation. We talked about AI and the future of books, Rufus’s beginnings at Nerve.com and Babble, the changing landscape for writers, including the decline of general nonfiction sales, the importance of building email audiences over social media followers, the evolution of podcasting economics, and all the incredible interviews and insights Author Insider brings.
