Today is the first day of Chinese New Year. Ironically, I was free enough to work on the children's book I had written on my son. We finished creating it on Book Creator. Here's the link so that you can see whether you like it enough: https://read.bookcreator.com/pdjo30VqamcUwbwsh6mdm71pT203/tuprlgAXQ8-gHeMavmPPCg
I then downloaded it as an epub and converted it to PDF. It is the PDF version that I'm selling. (Somehow, the epub doesn't open up on my laptop.) I'm going ahead with the version that is more frequently used.
I have to thank @Natalia for paving the way. I set up an account with Lifpay to facilitate my selling of the book. Head over here if you wanna support my maiden effort: https://lapp.lifpay.me/checkout/7b1437b3-e0dd-4a27-b99d-95255616e7ce
Unfortunately, I don't know how to upload my PDF to the platform. That's why I am going to request for your email address so that I can send it over to you. You have to trust that I won't disappear with your sats.
(In the meantime, I will learn how to embed my book within the Lifpay platform so that I won't need to request any information the next time I sell my writing. Haha.]
This is why I leave it to you to determine how many sats my effort is worth. I don't think I have provided the best product because:
  1. the words somehow became smaller and purple when I downloaded the PDF. This might affect readability.
  2. you might feel uncomfortable giving me an email address, especially so if you don't have a burner account set up already.
Nonetheless, I'm just gonna try my luck because I do want to end this first day of the New Year, having accomplished something novel!

Hey @cryotosensei happy new year 🧧 To open the ebook you need a specific software to be installed in your computer. I suggest the open source one, Thorium but there's others
Congrats launching the first version of your book. I was following and noticed you put a lot of effort there. I suggest you provide both files for download (PDF + ePub) and let the final reader decide which format to use. I'll be happy to help improve the design and bring it to the next level if you like. DM on nostr if interested

Ooh thanks for the offer! I will take you up on it. I think creating a beautifully designed book will give me the confidence in setting the price haha
Thanks for the tips wrt epub too. Will explore further

As someone who still cannot bear to throw away his copy of Sherlock Holmes stories, I found your comparison between Sherlock and zodiac animals rather fascinating 👍

The books, the characters and the mysteries are amazing, I'm with you in not being at all willing to part with them.
For those who haven't yet seen the post that Sensei spoke about, you can read, donate sats to Anita and take part in the poll here:
