I wonder if serializing a novel on here is a promotion strategy to eventually get a book deal and then have the book published. Seems like a possible route if no one will publish your book. I would guess most people don’t want to serialize but do it out of necessity.

Well, it certainly worked for Pistelli, because a trad publisher picked up his book after he serialized it. I don't know if it was a deliberate strategy on his part though. I'm only serializing my travel writing because I had all this material and I didn't want to let it go to waste!
