Quoting: Anonymous Coward 59085399 WTF??? you're getting all excited "oh Ive just got my book from the publishers, blah blah" and you self-published??? for fuck's sake. Anyone can do that. You could wipe your arse and 'self-publish' that shit. I've 'self-published' 2 books through Lulu. It's no big fucking deal. Well, there's a lot of good material out there that wouldn't be if not for the new paradigm made available through technology and self-publishing. The gatekeepers of the big literary houses have time and again not been able to identify what it is that people want and like. The list of these authors who have brought so much entertainment and/or meaning to so many people is amazingly long. Grisham, King, Wild Honey... : ) |

I hope you get your money's worth back and then some for your troubles! I spent it happily on a book that I wanted to own. I have lots of books and I will probably buy more. My point is that people write and make money on the ideas they write about - even the church makes a killing off of the words and ideas written down by men and women of faith who didn't get royalty one. I just don't understand why you are dissing honey for writing a book. If people chose to buy it then that is their choice, just like my choice to buy a Bible.
