83 #: Self-confessedly old school, Schulman is squeamish about the idea of a writer using the bestseller-o-meter to advance their work.

97 #: It has a solid opening sentence, [193] <> Littafin dai an bude shi da jumla mai daukar hankali, [194]
98 #: three themes that make up roughly 30% – the ‘winning formula’ – a three-act plotline, a symmetrical emotional plotline, a balanced style and a strong heroine with great agency, all of which make it the paradigmatic hit. [195] <> ga shi da salo mai kyau da tauraruwa mai kokari, [196]
99 #: It also just happens to be about technology. [197] <> sannan kuma ya danganci fasahar zamani. [198]

#: But this granular approach has yielded some surprising insights that a human reader, [119] <> Sai dai kuma wannan tsarin na son a bi diddigi, [120]
#: too caught up in the drama and beauty of a text, is likely to miss. [121] <> ya sa suna iya gano abin da mutum ba zai gane ba saboda dadin labari ya kwashe shi. [122]
#: For instance, sex sells but only in a niche market – erotica, unsurprisingly. [123] <> Misali, sun gano cewa jima'i na sayar da littafi amma iri guda kurum, wanda daman an yi shi ne don batsa. [124]

#: As Jeffrey Archer quipped when I asked him about it: [127] <> Da na tambayi marubuci Jeffrey Archer sai ya ce: [128]

#: Painting by numbers [131] <> Kashe basira [132]

#: sometimes with extravagant success. [135] <> wani lokacin kuma su kan dace da gagarumar sa'a. [136]
#: When bit-part actress Jacqueline Susann knuckled down to writing her one and only novel in 1962, [137] <> Lokacin da wata 'yar fim Jacqueline Susann ta so rubuta littafinta na farko kuma na karshe a 1962, [138]

#: She bought three copies of each of his books and got out her scissors (literally). [141] <> Don haka sai ta sai littattafansa uku da suka fi kasuwa ta duba kamanceceniyar da ke tsakaninsu sannan ta rubuta nata, bisa wannan tsarin da ta gano. [142]
#: Her efforts paid off and the resulting novel, Valley of the Dolls, went on to become the fastest seller in history. [143] <> Nata littafin, 'Valley of the Dolls' ya zamo littafin da aka fi saurin cinikinsa a tarihi kuma har yanzu ana ci gaba da sake wallafa shi. [144]

#: but her prose [159] <> amma kuma salon rubutunta [160]
#: has also been shaped by an MFA at the New School, [161] <> ya samo asali ne daga digiri na biyu da ta yi a kan rubuta kagaggun labarai. [162]
#: where she was taught by its fiction coordinator, Helen Schulman, herself a bestselling author. [163] <> Daya daga cikin malamanta, wacce ita ma fitacciyar marubuciya ce, Helen Schulman, [164]
#: Self-confessedly old school, Schulman is squeamish about the idea of a writer using the bestseller-o-meter to advance their work. Moreover, she finds it hard to envisage how literary talent and the hard graft needed to help it flourish could ever be strategised. [165] <> ta ce babu wasu alkaluman lissafi da za su bayyana sirrin daukakar Danler: [166]
#: “It's who Stephanie is from her head and heart down to her fingertips that [167] <> "Rayuwar Stephanie da baiwarta [168]

#: bestselling author of novels including Disobedience, and co-creator of hit fitness app, Zombies, Run! [181] <> marubuciyar fitattun littattafai irin su Disobedience. [182]
#: “We all know that appearing on the bestseller lists is only one measure of a book's success,” she observes, “and that a certain kind of formulaic book does tend to sell very well, just as formulaic pop music often sells well. People like what they're familiar with. [183] <> Ta ce: "Kowa ya san akwai irin littattafan da kan samu karbuwa a kasuwa fiye da wasu saboda mutane sun fi son abin da suka saba da shi. [184]
#: I'm really most interested in the bestsellers that no formula could predict – and in brilliant books that aren't bestsellers at all.” [185] <> Sai dai ni nafi sha'awar littattafan da suka yi kasuwa bayan sun sabawa wadancan ka'idojin ko kuma littattafan da ba sa kasuwa duk da kasancewar sun yi rubutu da kyau." [186]

#: Only one book, apparently, scored 100%: Dave Eggers’ 2013 novel, The Circle. [191] <> Haka kuma littafi daya ne kurum 'The Circle' na Dave Eggers ya cika duk sharuddan Archer da Jockers inda ya samu maki dari bisa dari. [192]
#: It has a solid opening sentence, [193] <> Littafin dai an bude shi da jumla mai daukar hankali, [194]
#: three themes that make up roughly 30% – the ‘winning formula’ – a three-act plotline, a symmetrical emotional plotline, a balanced style and a strong heroine with great agency, all of which make it the paradigmatic hit. [195] <> ga shi da salo mai kyau da tauraruwa mai kokari, [196]
#: It also just happens to be about technology. [197] <> sannan kuma ya danganci fasahar zamani. [198]
#: But the real kicker? In sales terms, The Circle was a flop. [199] <> Sai dai kuma da aka fitar da shi kasuwa, littafin 'The Circle' ko kudin wallafa shi ba a mayar ba, balle a yi zancen riba! [200]
