This thread has motivated me to start writing again. Thanks goons! I've done 40k this past week. That's more than I've done in two years. Bardeh posted:If anyone wants to do some sort of accountability partnership thing with me (we add each other on Skype or whatever and just have a brief chat each day to tell the other person what we've done) that might help. PM me if you're interested. We could also do edit swaps or beta reads, things like that - something that's 'work' that'll get me to sit down and get into that mindset. PM sent!

Who else said they were going to write 1,000,000+ in 2016? Ha...haha....ha...

But just knowing that I've got something for it now is a good thing. Good luck with your recovery. I'm on the tail end of a medication journey. It gets better, but it can be a slow process for some people.

RedTonic posted:A celebratory post: 108 ARC list sign-ups on a brand new, non-romance/erotica penname. Congrats! Does anyone have any experience publishing "literary" fiction through KDP? I'm trying to decide between self-pub/trad pub/kindle scout for something I'm working on, but I suppose I should finish the drat thing before I worry about publication.

Has anyone tried to self-publish a "literary fiction" novel and had it do well? Is self-publishing something that isn't genre a fool's errand? Should I try to get my novel traditionally published?

Thanks for the encouragement! I don't need the money because I still have smuhbux rolling in. Writing something personal seemed like the best way to break up the monotony of tab a into slot b.

Hopefully it's still alright to post blurbs. I'm not sure about the "dervishes" part or much else. Help is greatly appreciated!quote:Haunted by the private demons of psychosis, twenty-nine year old Zach is isolated from the world outside the hospital. With the help of a anxious, self-mutilating girl named Emma, he embarks on a hitchhiking trip to escape the ennui of contemporary life. As Zach and Emma get closer, they end up revealing their quirks and dangerous idiosyncrasies to one another. http://i.imgur.com/K58fWQV.jpg

Bardeh posted:Can't you just put them all up on D2D/Smashwords? I have to admit that I never even knew about Pronoun, but I have dozens of naughty books still up on those two sites. Eh I could but I’ve decided to throw them back on Amazon at least for the next season or so. D2d never was able to sell outside of BN for me(with massive amounts of keyword stuffing). I appreciate the advice though. Hopefully y’all are all prepared for kindlemas!

Was accepted for an International Bookbub this week on a literary fiction pen-name. Ordered some promo around the date with BargainBooksy and ENT and a preliminary order from book-rank. Is there anything else I should be doing to maximize sell-through? The BB promo book will have a blurb in the back with my new release then some back-matter for my other books. I don't know what else to do other than dump some ams/fb ads on the book and see how high I can push the book. This is my current catalogue: https://www.amazon.com/d.c.s.-ross/e/B076QJR7LF/ref=dp_byline_cont_book_1 Thoughts?

My bookbub is a massive failure so far. Anyone else have a bad experience with them?
