    [PROGRESS THREAD] ChickenHawk's Self-Published Fiction EBooks

    GOLD! 
    Just popping in for a quick update... As I mentioned above, I'm experimenting with a rapid-release strategy, where you release several books within a condensed timeframe. (For example, if you're planning to release three books a year, you don't release a book every four months, but rather...

    Nope. I'm in romance, but I do have at least a couple of fairly spicy scenes per book. I like your idea of finishing your current book. Publishing that first one will tell you a lot. :)

    GOLD! 
    The good news is that from what I hear, erotica is one of the few genres where you can make money with short stories. The bad news is that apparently, it's an even quicker churn-and-burn than full-length romance. This means that success largely depends on publishing quickly -- lots of books...

    The market has definitely gotten tougher, that's for sure! But even in the gold rush days, it would've been tough to make any significant amount of money from a single short story. When you say short, how short do you mean? And were you looking to publish multiple books? Alas, these days, it's...

    Thanks for asking! I haven't released a book in seven months, because I'm implementing plans to release books more closely together. As a result, my income is waaaaaay down. For example, my daily income is currently averaging around $20/day. (Yikes!) No surprise there, given that success in my...

    I see what you're saying. In this case, though, I think the shortage is due to the fact people purchased a year's worth of lamps in the span of a couple of weeks, and supplies haven't yet been replenished. I haven't checked, but I'm betting my lamps were made in China, which also doesn't help...

    Funny, I bought three different UV lights from Amazon in late January when this started looking like a potential problem. Of those three lights, two are currently unavailable. The third one is still available, but has doubled in price (from $37 to $76). Oddly enough, they became harder to find...

    I agree that his forum leans right compared to other forums and social media sites , but that's mostly because other outlets lean so strongly left -- making this board seems ring-wing in comparison. If anything, this board leans strongly libertarian.

    Oddly enough, his refusal to bow to political correct conventions is one reason I support unbanning him. This virus originated in China. It was spread (some might say created) through CCP action/inaction. If this virus had originated in Stockholm, there'd be no pointing or shrieking at the term...

    The term "conspiracy theory" was popularized and promoted by the U.S. government to discredit those who didn't believe the official story on Kennedy's assassination. Since then, it has been used nearly nonstop by the media and our own governments to mock and discredit anyone who questions the...

    This virus is a no-win, which is why we're seeing hostility and frustration on both sides of the argument. If we ease up on the social distancing, more people will surely die. Others will experience long-lasting health problems, like permanent lung-damage, fertility issues, and loss of limbs...

    Source or link? I haven't any reports of either organization calling it, to quote you, an "absolute nothingburger." This is probably because calling it a "nothingburger" is silly. According to Johns Hopkins, we're at 2.5 million confirmed cases, including over 800,000 cases in the USA. In the...

    Michigan's governor is a liberal democrat with higher political ambitions. Most reporters are also liberal democrats, so it's not surprising to see them vilify those who rise up to oppose her policies.

    The government is run by idiots. I feel compelled to clarify that although I'm in favor or medical quarantines (meaning isolating contagious people during a pandemic) and also supported temporary school closures, I've been horrified by the idiotic overreach. Some of this, I believe, is caused...

    It's pretty sweet that you're getting your grand-daughter biz books. That'll give her a nice head start, and you definitely picked a winner! It was also smart that you got one for yourself, because we can't let these whipper-snappers get ahead of us. :)

    A "nothingburger? Seriously? It's amazing to me to watch the ever-shifting goal posts of what constitutes a "nothingburger." In the beginning, if I had said, "I bet half a million Americans will get it before Easter," most of the people here would've said I was nuts for predicting a crazy...

    Remember early in the thread when we were comparing the virus to other causes of death? It's interesting to see how much has changed since then.* *A note of clarification: The non-Covid numbers (such as for kidney disease) are annual averages, and thus, do not change between these two charts...

    New Data: Los Alamos researchers suggest that the R0 of this virus was 5.7 in Wuhan. This means that each infected person infected an average of 5.7 other people. To see at how this compares to other diseases, here's a chart, courtesy of Wikipedia. In this chart, they use a range of 3.8 to 8.9...

    Alas, I don't believe you, but just for the record, I have no wish to see you banned. Your temporary humiliation is satisfaction enough. About the virus, I was vexed to see you ridiculing @GIlman and @loop101 for their thoughts on the virus situation, and thought, "Hmmm...glass houses, and...
