@Thad WoodmanCool! It would be interesting to know what data/metrics the algorithm factors so that we, as authors, can put our best foot forward. i.e. does it help having more chapters uploaded, etc. I ask wondering if it involves your partnership with Kadaxis and their machine learning which uncover data elements within manuscripts.
All in all, I did like seeing top sellers at the top of the list. Most folks I know in the external world like to rate/judge books based on "best seller lists" and I, personally, think that might be a good default metric--an Inkshares best seller list. Followers could work too. And as another category, it might be good to have a "just released to bookstores," too. Just some thoughts :)
Hi there! I just joined Inkshares and wanted to introduce myself.
My name is James. I live in Jersey (Channel Islands, not New) I am 28 years old and an aspiring author. I have a love for fantasy and steampunk and my writing attempts to mix both together. I have a sample chapter up already if anyone would like to give it a read and offer up their opinions.
Looking forward to getting to know you all better :)
