An Author Collective is a group of writers who collaborate to support each other in their publishing efforts. Members share resources, knowledge, and marketing strategies to enhance their visibility and reach. This cooperative approach allows authors to pool their talents and create a stronger presence in the literary market. These collectives often focus on specific genres or themes, fostering a sense of community among like-minded individuals. By working together, authors can navigate the challenges of self-publishing and promote their works more effectively, benefiting from shared experiences and collective promotion efforts.
