Wrops for Writer Operations

Everyone who moves their pen/pencil across an empty canvas is an author (believe it or not). No? So lets gather as a body of writers to address the future of our world and ourselves. The real intent or idea behind creating this Pod is to have a center of operations for collective writing efforts and ideas. Yet, we'll engage...(more)

I need books

jilljj said Feb 24, 1:05 PM:

 

this might sound a little wacky at first, but I think it makes for a
good way to market your books. I have been wanting to have a bookstore
online because i am a voracious reader interested in the topics on
Gaia. I have a fledgling website from which I now sell artwork, and I
want to add books, but have not the time to write. The book storefront
would be at www.jilljj.com/ZenCart
in
it would be your ebooks: descriptions, titles, pics, prices, etc……The
site now is sad, no books, but don’t worry, I am great a web design and
that will change soon as I get authors……….
Now, I worked for a while
as a cost estimator at a college text book company and I know what a
tiny pittance goes for author fees. Instead of 6 to 10%, what I propose
here is that you get to keep is 60%. I personally have had a hard time
finding a central location for books of this subject matter, which
means we could have a niche!  The benefit for me would also be
increased traffic to my site and hopefully you authors let me read your
works while we are at it. Of course this is something to which we both
need to agree, and I will have paper works to sign to get us through
all the red tape.
Please email me if you’d like to jump in or have ideas.

It always happens at these blogs, I end up replying to myself….Oh well

I would just like y’all to know I have some updates to this: The
