[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 1905229, member: 63"] I have a website [url=http://www.geocities.com/rangerwickett]here[/url] that has the first four episodes of a fantasy storyline I've written. Early next year, I'm hoping to team up with Acquana (Jessica Jones) and release a comic book of [b]Savannah Knights[/b]. I'm very excited about both of these things, but the problem is that I'm not sure if I can afford to spend time writing instead of looking for a job. At the moment I'm so poor that if I don't get a job in the next two weeks, I don't know what to do. Trying to get published the traditional way takes too long, and while I am hoping that the one story I sent out will be accepted, it won't happen in time to help me now. I'm hoping online release will garner some interest, but if there's not enough immediate interest, I might have to put things on hold until I have a steady job. And the job market in Atlanta is harsh now. Would anyone here buy pdfs of short story or serialized fantasy fiction? What if they came with some game material too? Comic books? I [i]am[/i] looking for a job (I've even got a non-fantasy-themed thread in the off-topic forum where I ask for help). I write a lot, and if you'll read what I have available online, you'll hopefully agree that I write well. I'd like to write to entertain others instead of flipping burgers, but I'd need to know I could make at least a bit of money off that to make it worth the time. I love writing, and I'll keep doing it even if I have to take an unemployment, but I don't want to wait if I can support myself now. So, swing by the site, read what's there, and let me know if you'd be interested in buying fantasy fiction online. And if someone wanted to show their support through PayPal, or by buying some E.N. Publishing products, it would help me a great deal. Mostly, I want you to read the stories on my site and be entertained by them. Suggestions on quick ways to solve my immediate problems through writing are also appreciated, and if anyone's going through something similar, feel free to share your troubles. Goodnight. I hope to read people's replies tomorrow evening. [/QUOTE]
