Business of Books Survey Reports

In 2021, under the guidance of then Monitoring Liaison Cynthia Kuhn, SinC surveyed our members about the business of books. The survey included information about:

  • Writing Activities
  • Reading Activities
  • Author Activities
  • Marketing
  • Income
  • Member Identities
  • Reviews
  • Blogs
  • Social Media
  • and more

The information covered 2020. In January 2022 a survey was sent out about 2021. The report was finished in December 2022, and was released in January 2023. The survey for 2022 was sent out in January 2023, and the report was released in November.

SinC plans to continue to survey our members for the forseeable future. The first surveys reflected years of the pandemic. As things get back to "normal" it will be interesting to see where things shift, and where information remains steady.
