Now here’s a thought: shareware novels

Something to do with those NaNoWriMo projects.

I may have an idea of what to do with my nanowrimo project when I finish: turn it into a shareware novel and make it available. I hadn’t totally thought out this concept, though others have set these up. It has some drawbacks, true; but then again, it definitely takes advantage of that direct-to-customers marketing jazz that the e-tailers keep yammering about (yet never seem to actually grok.)

That site, BTW, houses all sorts of good writing, not just the shareware novel. Check it out. Laugh. Cry. Fall down. Make it a part of you. The end.
