    • I've put a menu item under the STORY menu for published stuff, things that authors (or theoretically, readers) of the WU have written. If you are an author of something that can be purchased, and you would like to be added to the list, please get me the necessary info. If you're an author who doesn't want their published stuff listed in the list, let me know and I'll take it down.

    If for some reason you were unaware that these books existed, I think you'll find that they're all set at a very reasonable price tag for the stories offered. These are not, by any means, the sort of 20 pg unstructured gibberish that you'll find if you spend any time looking for TG Fiction in the Amazon book selections.

    My stuff sort of resembles that remark. :-p

    But no seriously, just checked it out and all it did for me was drive home how awful my covers were; all creative commons images. I'd feel pretty embarassed with them in such august company.

    The writing isn't half bad, though. Maybe I'll work on better covers.

    • I probably won't do my own covers on anything else I do. I don't think my cover for Glass came out bad but its not as professional as I'd like. There are people on the Amazon forums that will do a cover for a fairly low rate... and all things considered, I'd rather put $50 into a cover than into google ads. I certainly didn't get much out of $50 of ads and a better cover couldn't have hurt.

    • Some of the cover makers on Fiverr are pretty good. Just have to choose carefully. Here's one of mine for an upcoming book that I like, I can give a couple of dsigners I like if people are interested.

    • I hadn't noticed that the Jordan Winters saga had been released in e-book form. Highly recommended!

    By the way: the two books at Amazon comprise all seven Jordan Winters tales. The first book has four tales, the second one the remaining three tales. Each book is close to 300 Kb in length, so it's a fairly good value, considering that those are some of the best YA stories I have read -- TG or not.
    Don't call me "Shirley." You will surely make me surly.

    I'd agree, the cover does more work selling the book than anything else... but if you don't have the money, you don't have it. And I didn't/don't.
