First of all, thanks again for everybody for having me here.
Secondly, please believe me that I have read lots of forum posts. On the one hand, I've already learnt a lot, but on the other hand I'm getting more and more overwhelmed.
To cut a long story short (not that I'm very good at mastering a synopsis, haha), I've written a book. Written, re-written, polished, re-shaped, edited, critiqued. I'm even getting quite good at making maps. I have done a lot of research and decided to e-publish. I think I know what I have to do in the near future.
So far, so good.
Nevertheless, there are some things that worry me.
One of those are blogging. As it seems, I pretty much have to blog... for blogging's sake.
That's where I need help.
Can I just set up my web-site about the book? That wouldn't be a problem. I have created a quite huge world and a multitude of characters and features (incl. an in-world language) that I could write about.
Or do I have to blabber on on a daily basis about just about anything?
Now, there's a scary thought.
Not to mention that (as it seems) I have to find an audience for a product (e.g. my book) that isn't out yet.
From what I've learnt recently, that's what I have to do though.
Not that I want to over-estimate my abilities, but would I want to reveal all the ideas in my book without having taken care of the copyright issues? I think not. Then again, I might be wrong.
Well, I think that it's enough for now.
Any thoughts, comments and suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
