Self - publishing is simply a more viable path to earning a living and reaching readers than sending query letters to agents, and it isn't even close.

That reinforces the idea (in your mind and in the mind of publishing agents) that your book is different (and in some ways better) than «similar» titles in your genre.

I think maybe the fact that self - published authors need to spend more time on the stories rather than market is perhaps to balance out the fact that under traditional publishing, there'd be a team of editor / copyeditor / agent / etc helping with the writing bit, but self - published authors, unless they outsource, are on their own for all of that.

Agents understand they can make more from self publishing than from book touting; even bookstore chains like Dymocks entered into self publishing as a service to prospective authors.
