    FANTASTICA: A new age dark fantasy/parody-satire

    Sorry about that. I just misunderstood you. But to answer your question, I would say I have had mixed reactions up to this point. The positive reactions of those that "get it" has been great, and I am excited to maybe get others interested. I know it will take time to do so. As you mentioned, a...

    FANTASTICA: A new age dark fantasy/parody-satire

    In all seriousness I really don't consider myself a "genius". Still, the goal of my work was to write the fiction/fantasy novel series that I have never saw and read. And I believe I have most certainly accomplished that. I have been criticized in the past for not thinking in commercial terms...

    A fair price to set.

    I have no expectations of being a major commercial success anyway, so I would love to make my book as economically affordable as possible to anyone that would give my book a fair chance with the hopes that they will be entertained or amused in some way shape or form.

    FANTASTICA: A new age dark fantasy/parody-satire

    I admit what I have is not for everyone. And since I am basically making fun of basic plot elements of the fiction/fantasy genre anyway, I understand your feelings that I am not "original". And I like the names of my main characters. I mean I thought it would be even more lame to name them John...

    A fair price to set.

    On the royalty calculator, I'm required to input the book size and page content. I think it has more to do with the cost of making the book and nothing to do on why someone buys a book. At least I hope so. Its a paper back. And at the current $10.50 price tag, I only profit $2.19 on amazon...

    A fair price to set.

    Just recently self published a 6 X 9 287 page manuscript. Now in THEORY if you were interested in a certain type of book at that size and page content, what is the normal going price that may compel a potential reader to buy it? $5, $8, $12, $15 dollars?

Two close friends, Shit and Dope, both of whom are from different origins and backgrounds, break the law of the land for partaking in the weeklong Pigshit festival. This special festival held...

    Self-Publishing Advice

    I self published through createspace and I thought it was satisfactory to my liking. Did not use their editorial services though. But after I submitted my final copy edit, it took about two months to have it published with a proof copy paperback in my hand, and available on Amazon. I might go...

So unless people request more info about it, I will not try to break any rules by self promoting it unless I can be directed to the proper avenues to do so...
