i would suggest trying to break in via science fiction magazines, gain a reader base, then sell online. it may be a good idea to have several stories ready before going that route though. places like sci fi today and asimov's pay between 5-8 cents per word and look for 1500-7500 words. they prefer around 5000 words. ive been looking into doing this too, just did some preliminary research. good luck

if he is changing to third person perspective then the narrator is describing everything. i thought he mentioned that he was not gonna do first person perspective. if he does third person then there is no voice for each individual character until the dialouge comes into play. if its first person with multiple view points then it sounds like its gonna be a head ache trying to voice each person differently.

Typed up chapter 8 (1600 ish words) and started chapter 9

im reading the new 52 dark knight and grifter comics. i also try to get as many batman graphic novels as i can afford when i got to the comic shop. im reading welcome to the jungle now, but i checked it out from the library

4 chapters typed up in the first draft, 3 more already written. once all the typing is done ill continue with the writing. i think i have about 6-7000 words typed so far

I don't know if you guys already have something set up already but I'm wondering if any of you unpublished authors would be interested in starting a writing group to critique each others writing and give constructive feedback. Networking is always a good thing and support from a group can be a huge motivator when the going gets tough. If interested then hit me up and lets get started.

i appreciate the thoughts. im feeling pretty good about the third person narrative so far. i do have another question. when you do lengthy dialouge coming from a character when they tell a story, how do you use the quotation marks for the paragraph breaks? for example my character tells a story that requires about 5 paragraphs and there are some quotes inside that story, so do I throw the quotes at the beginning of the story and the end of it like a term paper where i steal info off google or do i put quotations for each paragraph? i hope this is an easy question to understand...
