    FANTASTICA: A new age dark fantasy/parody-satire

    My book is now FINALLY Kindle ready. I was previously under the impression that it already was. Thank you to those that had brought this to my attention here recently. Amazon.com: Victorio Velasquez Fantastica

    Right. Translator first. Going price like what 20 cents a page?. I agree with you beer good. But I think I must do more research on what is popular in regards to fiction/fantasy with violence and other mature themes in countries like yours. Unless you can give me insightful information on it...

    OK. And can that translator provide the press that would put my printed work in book stores in like say....Sweden? How much does all that cost? Or can someone just purchase copyrights to have it translated that way?

    How can a recently self published author like me begin the process of having my book translated into different languages like Spanish, German, Japanese, to reach a broader audience that does not read or comprehend English? Or at least what is the financial criteria for this to be achieved?

    Yeah, I use a lot of adjectives and adverbs in my writing. People have told me to reduce them, but I like the way it sounds and reads even if it means commercial death and it will turn off most readers. Being a parody/spoof where I use a lot of descriptive words, I think it fits to what I am...

    Hello

    Sort of. Still trying to absorb and learn.

    Its not the opening to the story. But this is where the two main characters are introduced. My book is a parody/spoof of the fiction/fantasy genre, hence the intentionally absurd names. But it has moments of extreme violence and other adult themes. Can't post most of it here. But I can post plot...

    Howl at the moon of course. Seriously, give me suggestions on better sentence structure and word usage, or you can inquire that I elaborate more on what the heck this is about. After that you post your own writing and me or whoever will try to do the same.

    Character introduction huh?? As promised. Shit’s story in connection to the cat-god was of spite and loathing, but at the same time, awe and admiration. It would seem that Shit’s resentment of the cat god was his own personal outlook on the misery of his ongoing life and the intense boredom...

    I need participants to post select paragraphs of their preferred fantasy/fiction books/authors such as action scenes, racy innuendo scenes, word heavy serious scenes, or a humorous WTF? scene. Then I will match it with a select paragraph that I deem comparable. And that is when you guys/girls...

    A fair price to set.

    If I can finally get a reviewer to review me if I promise to pay them a little extra if they just simply purchase my book, that would be great. At this point I'm not really worried if I get a shitty review. I have had more than enough positive encouragement that my book is good enough. Its just...

    Sure. Whats your price? And would you be actually "interested" in reading my manuscript so that I can at least get a FAIR review? Can I just e-mail you my manuscript or would you prefer that I mail you a printed copy? I'm just thinking it must be a chore to read an entire manuscript over the...
