I've done it! I haven't had super success at it, but I'm also just kind of starting out/haven't actually put a lot into it. I have made a little bit of money. The Something Awful thread got taken down unfortunately, it was really informative. There is a community on dreamwidth for it but I'm not sure if it's exactly kosher to share it on a public forum? Anyone know?

General advice:
- Study the trends! Do what the popular best sellers are doing. Look up Selena Kitt, she has a ton of advice.
- But also: write what you like. If you're not enjoying something it's never gonna get done.
- Smashwords SUCKS, use it only so that you can generate a coupon to give to other writers so that they can review your stuff.
- People do like quality but like, it doesn't have to be that great a story? Just make it sexy, the plot can be tacked on. Generally they like good characters. Make sure you can spell and stuff. You have an English degree? You can write well enough for this.
- Good covers are important, but if you have design skills I'm sure you'll be okay. Study the covers of the bestsellers. Make sure the fonts you're using are free for commercial use, not free for personal use. Shop around for stock photos, sometimes you can find a good one for a low price on another site.
- Be REALLY CAREFUL with not linking your real name to your pen name. I fucked up and had to delete that pen name and pull my stories, which were doing fairly well.
- Remember that Amazon could pull the plug on this at any time and nothing is set in stone, so the time to do it is now.
- Think of a good pseudonym that doesn't sound like a porn name. This is just based on reviews I've seen saying "THIS WAS CRAP, I should have known from the author's stupid name!"

Hi! Do you mind sharing the SomethingAwful link anyway? I want to see if there is a cached version saved somewhere.

Is the community word-of-mouth/invite only or is it public? If it is public, I can't think of any reasons to not link to it. Hope that helps!

The thread has been archived, so it would cost a membership plus the archives upgrade, like $20 total, to read. The community isn't public.

Ouch, that's too bad about the SA thread. And I understand not sharing a private community. Thank you for replying!
