Good to meet you. Been writing seriously since december 2011 and published since 2012. 13 books and counting. I do sci-fi and fantasy. Been an avid reader and D&D player since I was a pre-teen.
There hasn't been a whole lot of activity here lately but other than the absurd restriction on no discussing what you're actually writing or have written things here are pretty good.
BTW since you work for smashwords, back before I pulled my books off the site I got a check for 100+ dollars. Unfortunately it was one of those expires in 90 days checks and as I'm living in the philippines and forwarding my mail right now... so anyway smashwords never reissued the check and I never did get my money. Not that I specifically asked. Or that its a genuinely significant amount. I may still have the check I can't cash laying around.
Not too terribly important I guess.
How is smashwords doing lately? Any new promotional or advertising opportunities available on the site? I'm going to give amazon 3-4 months to check out what this new paid by page count thing does but due to a number of things I'm toying with the idea of going off the exclusive thing, at least partially. Back when I was non-exclusive I was just never really able to get any serious traction on other sites than amazon when I tried so it didn't seem worth it. Maybe if I could get another bookbub lined up it might be worth it to diversify to the other sites again....
Oh well have a good one and enjoy the site.
