“In America there's a tendency to write the same book over and over because that's what sells. So in a way, my success in America has come at the expense of what I do. I haven't sold out, and I haven't taken the popular road to writing a best-selling book. I've really bucked the system. So it was necessary for me not to go and find the easy fans, the ones who want something digestible and fast with a happy ending that they can read over and over again no matter how many different books it is. I had to find fans who really wanted to think. Worldwide they all have that in common.” ThinkingWayWantWritingBookDifferentMatterWantedAmericaEasyCommonTakenFansHavensSellsSellingTendenciesExpensesWant SomethingHappy EndingsSold OutDifferent BooksSelling Books Author:Steven Tyler
