How to Find Comp Titles for Your Novel
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Finding the right comparison (comp) titles can make all the difference in pitching or marketing your novel, but many authors don't know where to start.
In this episode, you'll learn what comp titles are, where to find them, how to use them, and what mistakes to avoid.
Whether published or not, querying agents or going the indie route, choosing comps will help potential readers understand if your book is for them.
