As for your claim about the relevancy of social media, you are mistaken. Read Elizabeth Harris’s article in The Times. The publishing industry is her beat.
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/12/07/books/social-media-following-book-publishing.html
She cites a number of mismatches, with expectations stemming from published authors with huge followings that translated to little more than ho-hum sales, including those of Billie Eilish and Justin Timberlake.
Yours truly,
Tom Zimberoff
