I can't help with the second point, but I am in the same boat! I'm almost finished with my book - well, almost in the sense that the first draft is almost finished, but I'm sure editing will take forever. I know there was an anon here who said she published m/m original stories as her main job. She recommended Pronoun for people who wanted to publish, but I heard that got shut down. It seems Amazon isn't great to publish with because they pay a lot less than they used to, but there aren't a lot of great alternatives for getting traffic.

Let me link to you a message board that this other anon had recommended me when I asked this question: https://www.kboards.com/index.php/board,60.0.html It's a board for writers, and a lot of the discussion there is about self-publishing, getting covers, editing, etc. I've lurked a bit myself, it seems really helpful. There are also a few Reddit communities that I casually follow that has some of this discussion, but so far I prefer the previous board.

Anyway, good luck to both of us. :) I think if you're going in not expecting anything it terms of income, there's nothing to lose, right? As much as I would love my upcoming sci-fi m/m erotica to win awards and instantly make me millions, I think I mostly just want to feel the sense of accomplishment of having something published (even if self-published), and if even a couple people read it, that will be crazy awesome.

Have you finished your book? Have you thought about cover art?

Thank you so much!I've already favorited the website you linked :)

Yeah, I want to do it for fun and hopefully a few people read it and like it . If I can eventually make something with a wider audience, I'd be super excited! Whether it's lucrative or not is not the aim.

Yes, Good luck to the both of us!

I haven't completed it yet (haven't even started writing yet, shame on me :[ ) but I do have an idea for the cover, and I was thinking if doing it myself, as I enjoy illustrating as well...What about you?
