Once upon a time I wrote a novel: Whither Willow?. Soon after, the publisher went belly-up. Last night I was told that there's a "free" (gasp!) mechanism for self-publishing. So I reformatted the novel (according to specifications), designed a (silly) cover, etc. etc. and submitted the manuscript. I was asked: "How much do you want to sell it for?" I typed: "$1.00" They replied: "It has to be at least $22.17." Huh? So it's $22.17 which (I guess) is their cut. My cut is (I guess) $0.00 It'll be fascinating to see if anybody actually pays $22.17, eh? P.S. Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY IT! It's here (along with others) for free! Novels |

Oh my! Such Steamy prose! Do you write for National Inquirer? You obviously were young when you wrote them. Now, I guess you are writing the children's books. Lol

Waz wondering when you would get back to your writing and art work....you know----like you said you would?
ReplyDeleteI've been working on all the unfinished novels for about six months. It takes me a much longer time than it did ... way back when. Gettin' old, I reckon.
ReplyDeleteI've also painted several pets of friends and relatives. However, I now paint only when I'm asked, else my stuff just collects dust in a closet.
