    What to do when the process has just started

    MINDSET 
    Stop reading development books. Stop listening to gurus. Stop identifying as an entrepreneur. Start taking action. Start measuring progress. Start becoming aware what this path is like by walking it.

    Hello from Denver - self publishing success

    GOLD! 
    This business is best for people who like to read and write stories. You will read A LOT for market research, noting the tropes, themes, all of the commonalities that you can determine in a genre. Next, you will need to incorporate all this into your writing, which is voice, style, plot etc etc...

    I'm an artist

    MINDSET 
    I'm a writer, genre-writer. That is my fastlane. I say no1 is an artist. Maybe literature, nice sentences about a story no1 wants to read, but they don't make the numbers. Same with musicians. Are you a good musician? Be honest about that. Are you willing to create music that you don't...

    Mine was just a blog that happend to talk about self-development. At one time I put out an ebook (just a pdf files with my ramblings) and I used distribly.com and surprised it net me profits as I started it for fun. Seems like you're already done, at least with the content, so good luck and...

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

    GOLD! 
    Apologies for nitpicking, I really want to know the process of a best-seller, and could also use guidance. I suppose the 12 hours isn't a normal writing schedule, more of an umbrella of all the functions of authoring like the editing, plotting, reading, marketing, emails, etc, etc. I find that...

    Is Kindle Fiction publishing still a viable business?

    PUBLISHING 
    Word length is like a rope around a writer's neck, the higher the word count, the more likely a writer ends up choking on the story.

    I needed to return to this. Thank you, for the insight. There is nothing more that I want than to create a good book that will captivate and hook an audience not just in one book, but in multiple series, until I decide that it is time for the story to end and for them to stop handing me cash...

    PUBLISHING 
    First, thank you for not shutting down the thread. I thought it would be shut down because of the nature of the thread. I refer to 'smut' which i refer to as 'kink' which is some really weird fetish. Like scat, to put bluntly, or milking lactation. Usually runs to 5k words. What I think you're...

    Greed is Good

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Greed is also not the same as goodness. I'm here not just of greed. I'm here of a degree of everything. Desire, anger, jealousy, happiness, inspiration... greed isn't that special. Yearning is simply the yearning for more. Progress is never made without yearning something more. Greed does...

    Journey into the world of self-publishing

    EXECUTION 
    Yeah, rammed is too explicit. A good way to do it is look at your neighbors title and see how they did theirs. About the catalog. No one can promise you 20 books is ok. Thing is, books die fast. Good thing is, readers have voracious appetite. It's about speed, imo. It will be formulaic. I know...

    LMAO Greed leads to shady practices. If you like Gecko so much, check out Bernie Madoff, and see where greed gets you in the real world.

    Mastery - Robert Greene/George Leonard - Sustainable practices for Mastery!

    MINDSET 
    George Leonard spawned Robert Greene's Mastery, and his insights are deeper, stemming from deep Aikido practice. “Perhaps we'll never know how far the path can go, how much a human being can truly achieve, until we realize that the ultimate reward is not a gold medal but the path itself.” This...

    "Your repetition is your reputation" A video pops up in my YT and he opens with that. In my head, "I agree." Then my mind shifts to "Who is this guy?" Then I notice he has a inner-city accent (he does) and I'm intrigued. Then I see the nice house, and i'm like -- "ok, now you have my...

    Seems like after a break through success, you get to be more business-y. In a day, how much time do you spend on the writing if you don't mind answering.
