Actually, if you want some more detailed information on Radish, I’ve been experimenting with it and have posted about my experience, along with hard date, here: https://www.hiddengemsbooks.com/?s=radish&x=0&y=0&post_type=post

That’s part 1, although part 2 is going to be published tomorrow.

As to the rest of your question, I don’t know much about that but maybe if Krista sees this she’ll respond if she has any other info about it.

Its been about six months since you wrote this article so I’m wondering what your current experience is with putting your writing on Radish?

Also, I have heard that most of the fiction reading aps, that are targeted towards smartphones, are primarily popular in Asian countries like China… This being the case, do you (or do you see in other writing on the platforms) a trend towards trying to slant the writing towards Asian cultures to capture readership…?

I am someone who is considering writing on Radish and the other serialized platforms; so I am trying to get some background information on what works there…

Thanks!

They are legit; they pay well; and their contract is good for the author out of the gate. No right’s grab. Highly recommend romance authors look at distributing through them.

Oh, and they have a Google form that you upload to, marking tropes for your books, your cover, your book in Word form, etc, and then they split the book up into chunks and actually add it to the site themselves. It’s MUCH easier to upload to KISS than it is Radish.

Lastly, StreetLib JUST opened up a relationship with a new serial app called Flamingo Fiction. It’s so new, you have to opt-in via an independent form instead of through the SL site.

But yeah, I agree – serial apps are the hoppin’ new thing! Especially for romance authors, it’s a terrific way to expand and grow your income without having to write a single new word.
