Hi
I love writing what I do and have so far got about ten of my mini novels (they're all about 25000 - 35000 words each) published on a site that sells them for me. As each one takes a few weeks to plot and write and edit... etc. the few bucks I make each month helps pay a bill or two.
Most of the respected authors around that I know won't just give their books away - I made an exception with "The Inheritance - Ex-Wives 1" which I posted here a few days ago, but I think readers who like a particular author (and I mean one who actually writes a decent length, quality story) should be prepared to dip their hands in their wallets to support that author from time to time. If an author wrtites rubbish then those same readers can show their lack of interest by keeping their hands in their pockets.
As I've written the ten published novels that are all selling well at my publishers - www.a1adultebooks.com - I'll leave it to you to decide if what I write is any good.
Don't forget you can read "The Inheritance" here at bdsmlibrary for free - and whether you support my efforts and those of other quality authors at www.a1adultebooks.com is your decision.
