    Map building?

    I've only experimented with it a little, but I've read good things about AutoRealm. It's geared more towards making maps than Gimp (which is a generic image editor) and from what little I've done with it, it appears to be a good tool for the job.

    Is my series worth writing?

    I'd say yes, the story sounds interesting enough to catch people's attention. But, like others have said, what's going to make it a good read is if you enjoy writing it. A book is a large project, a series even larger. So it's going to take a large commitment from your to complete it. But if...

    Sources for cover art

    I used Deviantart for the cover of Princess of Prophecy. I found a unicorn I wanted to use and the artist was easy to work with. She sees it as a mutually beneficial endeavor (as I do). I've done a similar thing on my web site, Alexander Knight It has rotating artwork that I've gotten...

    Amazon Kindle market place

    I made my book, Princess of Prophecy, available via Kindle in early November. The process is has a couple of tricky parts, mainly dealing with creating the index to the book, but I got it from Word to .prc format in one evening, so it's not that hard. Of course, I can code in HTML which helped...

    Howdy howdy

    Thanks for the feedback, Sashamerideth. The short sentences were intentional to present a quick pace. The redundant ones were not. Sorry about that. Yes, I'm using CreateSpace for the print version of the book. They been fairly good to work with so far. A little slow for what they're doing...

    Howdy howdy

    I agree. So I'll try not to do that. I've been a little slow to respond lately because I just got back home (been in Denver for 7 months for cancer treatment) but I'm home now so things so start running smoothly. Yes, the PR side is something I know absolutely nothing about, but I'm learning...

    Yes, it was self published. It was quite easy to do, actually. The eBook is called Princess of Prophecy and I've made it available via Amazon and Barnes & Noble and it'll be available in print later this month.

If in society A everybody works together for the benefit of all and in society B everybody works towards their own benefit only, each society would probably consider the other evil because they are so much different than their own. I think the stated...
