    My Fiction Attempt

    Not too bad but could use a better About Me page, tell a story, why you write, what you write about, what inspires you, what message you'd like to communicate in your books etc. :) Biggest blunder on the website big sign up form in a sense that people have lots of info to leave and even format...

    I was pointing out that he gave you a pass for tone that can be found offensive by some and didn't for the guy who wrote the article. Not arguing 'us vs them' etc.. Thank you

    Nice progress. I hate design contest websites (cuz I'm biased obviously haha) but good that you found the cover you love. I'm not a big fan of Free too but I wouldn't be dead set against it, extremes aren't good in general. If authors is writing fast then it's good to have one book free as an...

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    Well, again, if there are thousands then I'd love to hear some names.. Is there one that stands out? I don't think there is, so there is a chance to become the no.1 name in that particular type of service. Kind of like when one competitors buys out or just outmarkets the competition and becomes...

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    Can you name few of them that stood out to you? I'd love to see as many of them as I can. I might start out just by being a service for content marketing providers only - meaning only do web graphics first, no print, just stuff for your blog posts, Facebook or Twitter covers, etc. Lowers price...

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    It's all good. If I was going to charge $69 a month and offer a smaller package, you'd be a possible client for sure. So that discussion is good. I started off thinking I'd serve solopreneurs/small biz owners too and charge from $99 to $300 or something but looks like there are other options...

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    By talking with few guys who actually provide the service already. Also even asking around on one forum, there were positive responses. And don't take it the wrong way, but you're not the target market then. This is for higher-volume companies that have multiple blogs/projects/products/brands...

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    I'd be doing some but end goal is to build a team of location independent employees. I would be outsourcing it to Eastern Europe (probably). Yeah it's not super automated process but you can still have processes/templates etc that save time and make it easier. :) As far as pricing, yes, there...

    Looks like I will be going for higher prices. Still working things out but domain is bought, site is ready for design today and I've found some people who do the same/similar thing..

    Biz Idea Feedback?

    IDEA 
    Great point. I was thinking of making a 10 designs/month limit let's say. Also thinking price is low-ish so the designs would be small ones like banners/Facebook timelines/Pinterest graphics/ flyers for cheapest option and then bigger works like website redesign included for something like...

    What are peoples thought on Modafinil?

    HOT! 
    Anabolic steroids only have short terms effects, both good and bad ones. They wear off.. There isn't much risk there. Now using them constantly is more dangerous and can mess up your testosterone production.. same with Modafinil, maybe if you use it every day, you will f.. up your brain but used...

    What are peoples thought on Modafinil?

    HOT! 
    The only negative I heard is that some rare people have a migraine the day after. Otherwise, it's great to stay awake and focus if you need to pull off an all-nighter for deadline etc.
