Cool move.
I got a copy of this from a Borders going out of business some time ago, and am just now getting around to reading it. It has some interesting facts interspersed with a lot of annoying "Look how smart science is compared to superstition" parts. So, I probably wouldn't recommend it for everyone, but perhaps for some folks it might be a smooth enough read to be less annoying and more informative.
Yeah, I wasn't sure about self promotion as I did that I am A thing and somebody came on there and got kinda pissy about it although old school reddit it was a common thing. (Remember rampart anyone)? I don't want to crowd the channel, but I might do some strategic dropping here and there.
Hey, glad to see my book is still here! I haven't gotten any purchases from "sats land" but fiat land has been responding. I wonder why that would be, since I would think crypto people would tend, on average, to be more "book reading oriented". If their behavior is being modified due to "Ease of purchasing ability" then that would be something to engineer a solution for if you really want to compete with fiat, no?
Well, I can't edit the post now, so I'll put it here:
Sal Grimone is a GREAT DECEIVER! He gets paid to digitally implement his deceptions. Unfortunately for him, his neat world is about to be rocked by the unexpected intersection of other members of the reality he inhabits. And oh yeah, the line between reality and fiction has been made thin by the birth of a thing called the "Holonosphere". Everyone is struggling with metaphysical problems brought about by this. A few people might just change the world by how they answer and act..
I didn't know that Ask Me Anythings were anti self-promo? I have done ask me anythings back in the day about books I wrote then? Is it a new rule for here?
My expertise is in publishing and IT. The story proves I can write a story, and publish a book? I dunno, these things seem self-evident to me so I might not understand exactly what you are expecting.
I'll add the brief blurb that's present at the above links.
lol. Well, it's categorized as fiction, but the book poses the question of what, exactly fiction is. ;)
I prefer to work in latex for formatting, but I prefer word processors for writing. So, first I write in a word processor. Then, styles. Then I move to markdown. From markdown there is a which-way adventure via pandoc but for Amazon you need to be able to make an epub. For that I used Calibre and Sigil which was rather daunting in the sense that the requirements are specific for both of those platforms. Once you get that done, you fill out all the little forms for Amazon and BN that include your vendor info, and upload your covers and then await an up to three day approval process.
Through the maturation of a process of science a type of modern alchemy is born that breaks the notion of what reality is--indeed it reveals potentials that reality can assume. This leads to the idea that all of reality is some kind of hologram which is called the holonosphere. This leads to a crisis of faith and meaning, although there are people being tapped on by mysterious forces within it to do something about the crisis that is brewing. One is a hacker. One is a type of librarian. Another is an enslaved clone/worker.
Sure. I used the template here in latex for printing the pdf/print edition: https://ctan.org/pkg/novel?lang=en
Epub was a wild west show. I had to throttle it and it flows depending on the reader.
Here is a sample page of what that looks like:
I wrote a whole couple of books on how to do nothing well. They are books on meditation, and explanation of how and why "nothing" is something...
