Re: Proud Canadians post here!!

I'm a Canadian! I am not here very much... but I stop by every month or so ;) Or whenever someone sends me a PM, but all the ones my age I used to talk to grew and and are going to college - just like me! (I've been in college for a year and a half.) Canadians are awesome because (I don't know if th...

Re: College Advice

From experience, I feel like Community College is the way to go. It is wayyy cheaper in the long-run. Of course, there may be more expenses in things like meals or transportation, but it is the way I find is the easiest. I am going to a community college in the fall and they seem way more organized ...

That's great for you. Though, I think you could use some kind of cover for it. =] My brother "published" his graphic novel as a kindle edition. You can buy it here >> B.A.N.E: Seeds of Corruption I have tried and tried to get a cover for it, but it just won't take my ideas as what they wa...

Re: I wrote a book!

Do you have to pay kindle to have it up? My friend recently wrote a book, and I think it's really good. I'm trying to talk her in to publishing it, but this may be a good option for her. :) It doesn't cost at all :) Get her to go to https://kdp.amazon.com/self-publishing/signin to begin. It is kind...

I know I can publish it through myself, but I am going to set up some proposals with different publishers in the near future. It all depends on how busy college will be as to how much I will be able to do once september hits.

Are they only available as e-books? Right now, yes. Next summer I am hoping to have it in print (along with some other novels I have written) \:D/ While the book is FREE, tomorrow and Thursday, I can send e-book in the Word format to whomever wants it.

Re: I wrote a book!

free tomorrow? I'll get it tomorrow then. If you get lots of positive feedback, and your book gets popular, it could eventually sell for actual money. I will be selling it for actual money but I would have to sell an awful lot of books in order to be getting much from it. I only have it set at 35% ...

Re: I wrote a book!

Cool, cool, I have a Kindle app on my phone and ipad (although I don't have an actual Kindle) so I'll try to check it out eventually. What is the process of getting books on there? I've been thinking of giving it a shot. Is it as simple as uploading a Word document or do they actually vet you to so...

Re: Favorite AIO Writer?

I like Nathan Hoobler and Kathy Buchannan. I think I used to like her more before I found out she didn't even like writing Mitch, but she's still brilliant at plotting and dialogue. She can create the funniest, most awkward situations for the characters to get into! I think the same thing about Kat...
