[stylist] Earthing

Tue Mar 4 00:49:44 UTC 2014

I am so with you Ann!  I have written a memoir about earthing and teaching 
my descendants to practice it - It is called "The Great Grandmother Speaks 
of Summer Days."  I like to lay on the ground, and the moment you do this, 
you begin to feel the earth's vibrations and healing energy.  It is a great 
topic for writing about!  Lynda

>> what other people tell you to write. It just seems a bit bogus.
>>
>> On the other hand, this kind of thing also happens in a less organized
>> and above-board way with book series. The author hears from people that
>> they like or don't like this or that plot line or character, and the
>> author tweeks their work in accordance with public opinion. I just think
>> an author ought to have at least one book in them that wasn't nudged
>> along by popular opinion.
>>
>>
>> I heard recently that J.K. Rowling said she made a mistake in not having

>>
>> However, that doesn't mean this idea can't be tweaked. For all I know,

>>
>> Those are just general "for instances" one might think of while writing.
>>
>> And hang with me, there is a point to all this.
>>
>> Let's say the writer writes the book and is planning on publishing it
>> either through a publishing house or self-publishing it.
>>
>> So you get, what, $10, $15, $20 or $25 for the book, right?

>> week through e-mail, and maybe every week the reader is posed with a few
>> choices a character might go.
>>
>> The reader has time to wonder about which way it will go... sort of like
>> a mini little cliff hanger like the old TV series and movies use to do.
>>
>> When they get the next week's installment they'll find out if they were
>> right in their guess and go on to enjoy whichever way you took, until
>> they encounter another set of possible forks in the road in that week's
>> segment.
>>
>> The thing is, a writer will likely go through some level of winnowing
>> out different ideas anyway, so why not use them and get paid for them?
>>
>> How do you get paid for them?
>>
>> Glad you asked.
>>
>> Instead of getting the 10, 15, 20, or $25 for the book; one could charge
>> only $1,99 a week per segment subscription and turn the book into a $52
>> book in 26-weeks.
>>
>> The reader gets some mental and emotional investment in the book which
>> keeps them reading, the book will be published anyway so the main idea
>> is done, the scraps of ideas could be tweaked a little to pose possible
>> directions to keep readers guessing, and you've more than doubled your
>> money on the same book.
>>
>> Perhaps the time frame could be shortened and charge $3 per segment, the
>> details are subject to be flexed, but the idea that popped out was a
>> possible  innovative way to market a book, make it more interesting, and
>> get paid more for your efforts.
>>
>> Like I say, perhaps this has been done. Or perhaps it is an impractical
>> idea.
>>
>> If not, it might be worth a try.
>>
>> The challenge would be to get subscribers, but I bet somehow through
>> iTunes one could put a subscription up there. If not, there are other
>> ways one could market it.
>>
>> Back to lurk mode.
