There were over 200 e-books in Amazon’s Kindle store as of mid-February listing ChatGPT as an author or co-author, including "How to Write and Create Content Using ChatGPT," "The Power of Homework" and poetry collection "Echoes of the Universe." There is even a new sub-genre on Amazon: Books about using ChatGPT, written entirely by ChatGPT. In the video, White says anyone with the wherewithal and time could create 300 such books a year, all using AI.

Writing a 10,000-word novel is a different skill compared to writing a 150-word blurb, Dawson said. By the time the reader is on the first page of an e-book, you've already persuaded them to give you a chance as an author, Dawson said. Once your cover, blurb, and story are ready, you might think advertising is the next logical step.

But then a member of the Facebook group LitRPG Books posted a review to the group and tagged Krout. Group members took an interest in the book, and he made $5,000 in book sales in the month after it was published. So those earnings from the book sales got his full attention. By the end of 2017, he'd made more than $82,000 on Amazon book sales alone, plus more income from audio-book sales and non-Amazon revenue streams such as Patreon.
