Why are they wannabes? I don't understand why you would insult people who are trying to put out a product but failing.

They are wannabes because it makes the author of the parent comment feels better. Anyone who isn't objectively the best at something is probably automatically a wannabe. So at the end of the day it's just a wannabe calling everyone else wannabe. Don't waste time on understanding people like that.

When I wrote my book, they did an early access thing at it was terrible. I was still understanding where to take my book and iterate and I was getting people telling me it sucked. Uh ya, its not finished at all yet, just v1! Not a fan. I mean I get Betas and access to things say a month or so before launch. But not during active development.

Why did you agree to try early access with a book? It only really makes sense for games... and sometimes not even then...

I was a first time author and they were a big publisher, should have pushed back on it. Mentally it knocked me off my horse for a bit in making good progress on the book.
