“My readership tends to be completist and they want copies of all the books,” said Palahniuk. A book version of Greener Pastures could be printed by the French-owned publisher, which has right of first refusal.

Admitting that he is “sick” of “editoralising” online articles and prefers more useful internet content such as YouTube tutorials on how to clean garden furniture, Palahniuk said: “If it’s just opinion I don’t want to hear it.
Palahniuk, whose most renowned novel depicts a disaffected, isolated group of men, hopes that his newsletter and serialisation will build a more positive online community. “I was told young adult fiction could not be too dark but it’s a slippery slope,” said the author. Later in the novel, two parents seek refuge from a forest fire by hiding in their own partially filled septic tank. It opens with a 14-year-old girl climbing the stained-glass window of a church in front of a hostile congregation, bleeding from glass cuts as she tries to free a trapped hummingbird. The novel contains signature, jolting Palahniuk scenes. It depicts “the crisis young people face as they must choose a career, a partner, and find a home and job,” and is about a group of high school students who are offered the chance to auction themselves off as successors to billionaires and royalty around the world. The 59-year-old writer said Greener Pastures started out as a piece of young adult fiction and became “really dark and somewhat sexualised”. Palahniuk fans can pay $200 to be “founder members” of his venture. His Substack launched officially at 5pm on Monday with a newsletter containing anecdotes and writing lessons.

The first three chapters of Greener Pastures will be made available for free and will be published on 27 September and 4 October. The serialisation will be interspersed with short stories from Palahniuk and current and former students from his writing workshop in Portland, Oregon, as well as lessons on writing craft and how to navigate the publishing industry. Substack has paid Palahniuk an upfront sum for Greener Pastures and, unlike with a typical publishing advance, there are no conditions attached over what he writes. “That’s really attractive, the idea that you don’t have somebody editing the content of your work.” Palahniuk said he was approached by Substack to publish his next work on the platform and was drawn to an offering of editorial independence.
Substack, which has based much of its appeal on attracting well-known journalists such as the Rolling Stone contributor Matt Taibi, has more than 500,000 customers subscribing to its roster of writers.

A lot of public schools and most private schools refuse to carry my books. “The Texas prison system refuses to carry my books in their libraries. “My books are heavily banned throughout the U.S.,” Palahniuk pointed out.
