Preach 👏 My inspiration doesn’t usually come from other books. My other thing is tropes! I don’t usually build books around them.

I always feel so audacious - like who am I to compare my book to a masterpiece?! I use movies as comp titles as well 😂

So I've actually heard one of the reasons we put modern comp titles is so that agents know that we understand our audience and market trends

Don’t freak out about it! I have very strong opinions about how comps are ruining authors’ lives and they shouldn’t.

Self-pub, I have no idea what you're talking about. 😅 I just write whatever I want to, whenever I want to.

yeah this stuff is hard. The best thing I've found is just trying to find authors with at least a similar writing style

I have no idea tbh. I'm too nervous to do this. Also, think of Carrie, Harry Potter, etc. They had no comps...but I agree a DB would be useful!

but... my current WIP is inspired by Wattpad and other reader/writer sites wolf stories being similar and not being able to see myself in those books.

I relate because I write my books specifically because I can’t find adult books that I like.

Right there with ya 😂 I hate comping. But Authors.ai (Marlowe) kind of does that actually. Best I found anyway.
