Aspiring Writers Info: Writers Work For Cheap -- Too Cheap

You should be buying, and reading, Kristine Kathryn Rusch. Here she explains why I won't put a book out for free, and why I wonder if I should try to sell the third Alfreda novel to NYC, or if I should try a Kickstarter to raise the money for good covers, and do it myself.

Because I want to write for a living, people. And I haven't managed it so far.

Heinlein could support himself and his wife on the sales of a couple of books a year, back in the fifties. Not anymore. Take a look at historical numbers, and get back to WRITING.
