Aight it’s that time of the week again where I desperately try to plan something and inevitably fail to correctly plan out my time for various posts on this website. I’m thinking of sticking to smaller and simpler posts this week as my book comes together and some other things in life have cropped up. I’ve been quite busy and writing a book is really hard.

Let’s get to the matter at hand for why I’m so busy. So I’ve set aside $500 for the publishing of this book. And since I’m self-publishing the main source of revenue for this book will be through a patreon that I start at the launch of the book. This means to break even I would need times of people paying me $10 a month. Assuming I’m shooting for the book to run 10 months I would need at least 1 new member a month. Since I write 1 chapter a week I would need to have 45 chapters ready to break even on my investment. Out of the $500 I’ve spent $300 on my book cover and this website meaning I’m left with a little less than $200 on advertising. If I got an ad made by my cover artist I would only be able to afford 1 custom ad. That’s for sure not enough since each ad costs $55 to put up (not including tax) and most artists don’t do commercial use commissions under $100. This puts me in a difficult spot. On one hand I could expand the budget but I really am not confident in my ability to break even. After all, who wants to read a book written by someone as crazy as me?

Aight that’s it for me today. I didn’t find the time to fix my PC yet so every 10 or so minutes it gives a memory error and blue screens. Well whatever. Still works. Right?
