Good evening.
It's currently 9:46pm of Saturday here in the Philippines.
Three weeks ago, I've submitted my first ever English Romance Novel at Kindle Direct Publishing for Amazon to sell. Not that big as of the moment on sales. It's only 1 ebook sold purchased from Japan and 1 paperback from India. I'm thanking them whoever they are. And of course, I'm not promoting here. Just telling it.
The purpose of this discussion is to tell you that I'm working out my 2nd novel to published. I wrote this maybe 3 years ago but stopped. As of now, I'm editing it in order to ready it for submission within this month. Hope I can submitted that within this month.
While editing, I'm checking from time to time notifications here in myLot as well as in Facebook account.
Saturday and Sunday are my rest days for this 1st week of August. I sleep the entire day earlier but I think, I don't have enough strength yet. Maybe on the middle of my editing, I'll take rest for a while.
How about you? What are you doing for this weekend?

@DevMrSamEleazar Yes. I hope the first novel will be a best seller. That's one of the dreams of the authors.

My weekends are sometimes quiet and sometimes busy especially Sundays. How much should you pay for getting your book published and sold on Kindle?

@aninditasen Book publishing is free. And it depends how Kindle assigned a book pricing but I can request for what I want.

@luisga814 You say you have to write what they want you to.

@aninditasen No. Me as an author can write anything I want. However, Kindle Direct Publishing is the one will approve and published.

I wish you great success with the book. Selling self-published work is extremely difficult, but many writers do it. I like that we live in a time where many people can have the opportunity to share their talents regardless of whether or not some big exec somewhere decides what we have to share is not worthy of sharing.
My music is like that for me. It's mine. It's different. People like it and stream it and I get paid for it.

@luisga814 One never knows. Stranger things have happened. I am still waiting for a marketing rep or movie producer to call me and ask if they can use my music for a commercial or a movie. lol

Yes. Even if not that big on sales. I'm trying some luck that it will be best seller.

@Beestring Thanks. As of the moment, I stop for the editing. I need to relax first by watching "Sound of Music".
