[stylist] A different way of thinking about your project

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

The idea has merit, and in this day and age, there are quite a few of
ways in which to distribute the material.

It's a little like how back in the day, way back in the day, literary
publications would publish a series this way. Each issue would contain a
new section or chapter to a larger story.

It's an interesting idea, Brad. As Robert indicated, I think Stephen
King 
tried a different version of this idea about 20 years ago. I've killed a
lot 
fo brain cells since then, but I think he posted a chapter online, and
asked 
people to send him a buck (it was before the days of paypal). If 50% of
the 
people who read it sent him a buck, he'd post the next
chapter--something 
like that. And from what I remember, it fizzled out. As an unknown, the 
hardest part would be getting subscribers. James Patterson (or one of
the 
many grad students he pays minimum wage to write under his name) could
pull 
it off easily. Me--I'm not so sure.
