Have you always wanted to be a bestselling author?

You’re certainly not the only one!

Many authors dream of making the New York Times Bestseller List, or the USA Today Bestseller List or even being an Amazon Bestseller (which by the way is easier although does not mean you make more on royalties necessarily since there are multiple factors that are figured in). While no one can guarantee that your book will be a bestseller, you can do a few things to improve your odds.

1. Choose a genre that is selling a lot of books. Some popular genres are romance/erotica, sci-fi-fantasy, horror and religious/inspiration to name a few.

Among the aristocracy, you descended from your mother’s line, not your father’s as we see in much of the rest of the world at that time. In addition, there was also a strong tradition of worship of Aphrodite and Persephone.

02. Generally speaking, people didn’t consider Greek women citizens and their place in society was not much above the slaves. They had little to no say over how they spent their time or used their bodies, which made for a difficult life for many.
