What do publishers do for me? Hi David, thanks for the feedback on my cover design. I was actually considering the design for viewing on the web. I'd rather have the thumbnail look more appealing, then it look good on a shelf |

What do publishers do for me? Thanks Steven. I do have the time and motivation to do a lot of this myself, and as you said, I do feel like I understand my market more than most publishers. |

What are good reads about writing? This is a very good book, but I think it is more helpful with story creation (or structure for non-fiction) instead of writing. Maybe I'm drawing too fine a distinction between the two though. |

Will blogging my fiction limit its ability to be traditionally published later? Sure, a person's goals play a part. I prefer being independent and have full control. It has it advantages and drawbacks. I have just under 1000 readers that subscribed to my blog via RSS and email. I find this figure to be more important that "hits". My hits are not impressive, by "bounce rate" (% of people leaving after one page view) is low, and my "time spent on sight" is descent, which means to me that I am engaging/entertaining readers. I make money through my blog through Google Ads, and particular ad placements. It's not enough to pay the rent but it's decent. |

What do publishers do for me? I think you have an accurate description of our niche. Like you I also am looking for a long term trickle of sales as a sign of success. I'm not looking to make the NYT Best Sellers list. Good luck with your books. Look forward to checking them out. |

What do publishers do for me? I am addressing a niche market (adventure motorcycling). I've been thinking about strategies to market through social media. It would be a programming problem as much as a marketing one. I wonder if the cuts publishers take justify the work they do in marketing if I can match it even 50% |
