A visitor to my blog had an interesting idea.  There is a website called Royal Road.  People go there to publish their stories in a chapter by chapter method.  They get feedback and in some cases financial support (through Patreon and Paypal).  He suggested I publish my "Chained Worlds Chronicles" there.  Until he brought it up I hadn't even heard of the website so I didn't know what to think.  I am still not completely convinced it is a good idea but I thought I'd give it a try with the other book I am writing.  See how it feels.  So I am now slowly proofing and publishing "A Virtual Invasion" to Royal Roads and Webnovel.

Personally, I am a little skeptical.  Both of these sites don't make it practical to promote yourself or let people know you have other series or even where else you exist on the web.  Also, there are truly a ridiculous number of books/chapters being published every minute that new novels are pushed down the list so fast it's a wonder people are aware they exist.  Nevertheless, I thought I'd give it a try and see what it's like to do something besides Amazon.  Those of you who have read my blog in the past know I tried Barnes and Nobles and Apple with truly pathetic results, but time marches on and I suppose I need to keep up with the alternatives out there, even if I later decide it's not for me.  Anyway, look for it here:
