Weird book goon: I hope you are immensely successful, but I suggest pricing your magnum opus at paperback prices to start with and then increase the price if the first few are successful.

loquacius posted:First off, there’s “a lot of world building” because this is the first chapter to introduce Matilda, her kingdom, and Ulthos. In Chapter 20 you get the culmination of the Bronze Wars and a 5 year time skip, which is what leads to chapter 21. So yeah, I need to introduce some things BECAUSE THEY’RE NEW. This is also true of the squidfucking.

loquacius posted:Btw $15 is more than I would pay for an actually good book which had been recommended to me by people I trusted; might want to adjust that price down a little bit but I fully support this move to self-publish, sincere good luck Yeah, there's a big break point at $10. I'd release the first volume at $7.99 tops, that will still get some impulse purchases and make more money in the long run. Goonspeed!

This is actually believable. "Too much exposition" is a trap that many beginning writers fall into.

I'm agreed that if a book from an unknown author is very long, it's much better to break it into, for example, 200 page chunks priced at $4.99 each rather than $14.99 for the same 600 pages. I read a lot of kindle pulp fiction and I'm not going to pay more than $10 maximum for a book by an author I haven't already read and liked.

This made me double back and actually take a look. This is not good. I'm impressed you got something written down, but there is way too much exposition. And nudity and tiny pink nipples warrant NSFW. "Deep below lurked Ulthos, Lord of the Nether Beasts. Ulthos was a trainer of beasts, a collector of monsters, and a mercenary for hire. He specialized in making hits look like random monster attacks, and he was very good at it." How about : "Deep below lurked Ulthos, It's still not great, but full titles are tedious and "hits" really? "Hits"? Don't give up, but do expect to edit and re edit based on feedback. "With the possible exception of God during the writing of the Bible, every writer in history has needed an editor. So do you." And lets be honest the Bible has been edited dozens of times.

The Hebrew literally just said "his face was all glowy" and some medieval douche was like "that word means... 'horns' right? makes sense" You can find people on the Internet who say that change was on purpose and actually respectful because way back in the day horns meant you were a wise ruler rather than Satan Who Is The Devil but that still seems like a stretch to me as it has no other basis in Jewish mythology

Give it a publish - I guarantee there is an audience for it. loquacius posted:Followup from a guy who was having Girlfriend Issues: Glad to see things are working out, even if that's not the direction I would have taken it.

I know this is from a few weeks ago but I want that poster to know that I had a very similar situation with one of my ex-HS buddies. Seemed cool, but in the post-HS drifting apart that everyone experiences (to some degree, at least I hope ) they got into some poo poo and ended up dying in a pretty similarly trashy way. I had a few follow-up texts from them, spread out over a couple of years, but always ignored them. Looking back after their death, they all fit together like a Forensic Files episode where I'm the lovely detective that didn't see the signs until too late. No use beating yourself up over it now, though. Wasn't your responsibility, and hindsight is 20/20.
