Next week
will mark the release
of the 8th story
under one of my pen names.
I suspect it will be my breakout hit.
Why?
Because I’ve slowly been building
a readership
and it has grown close
to that special level
we call critical mass
(or the tipping point).
Because it is part of
a very high selling series.
Because it is one of my best stories.
Because it taps into
a large under-serviced target market.
All these elements may combine
to give me a breakout hit.
Or it may not.
My breakout story may be
the following story
which, once again,
intentionally combines
many of the same elements.
Breakout hits or products
ARE about luck
but they are also about
combining the same success elements
again and again
until that breakout happens.
