Final thoughts
Amazon Kindle Vella is a great service for aspiring authors, as you can test out the popularity of a story without having to commit to hundreds or thousands of writing hours on a tale that doesn’t resonate with people.
It’s just a shame that Vella is a little hard to use. Also, since it’s not available on Kindles themselves, and can only be accessed by US authors as well as US readers, the number of people using the service is pretty low.
But sooner or later, to keep the reader count high, Amazon will have to open the doors to more users.
