Aeon Flux? I remember that shit before it was a 'show', when it was just a blip between music videos on MTV...Liquid Television.

Yes, boys and girls...Back in the day, MTV played Music Videos.......

I remember that. I remember they used to have reality TV shows with just regular everyday people you could relate to, instead of spoiled rotten drama kings and queens that happen to be very attractive as well.

So instead of people you could relate to and could identify with and have feelings for, now you get a bunch of loud and obnoxious train wrecks who are very fuckable, appearance wise anyway.

Got a call from a HS friend a week ago. Had dinner with him last night after not seeing him since I was about 18. Funny how things go sometimes. Another god-fearing Republican. Sometimes I wonder if we all exist in the same time/space or if they are all criss-crossy. Did some of you experience a Sarah Palin that was NOT a total fucking moron? Was I unstuck in time again?

Have been thinking about epublishing my novella on kindle.
I have no idea what to charge for it.
It's a 35 percent royalty under 2.99
and 70 percent at 2.99 ^

It's hard. I'm not an accomplished writer or anything and it's fairly short. Basically it fall between 60-70 pages but its a niche that I think people would pay more for.

Especially with the movie that is coming out next month about the trail with Robert Redford

You can charge whatever you want for your own material, but you can't get above a 35 percent royalty without charging atleast 2.99

looked it up quickly, correct me if this isn't right.
So _ or _$. :-)

you'll have to do an analysis of how many more will sell at the _$ price point to make taking the lower royalty worthwhile. the higher number doesn't instantly mean you'll gross more as Quiznos implies. still _$ isn't a lot, so that may be the best choice. However, the _may bring out a multitude of impulse buyers. depends on who all will buy it, friends and family or strangers.

The price points I was looking at were:
.99 @ 35 percent = .35 per copy
1.99 @ 35 percent = .70 per copy
2.99 @70 percent = 2.05 per copy

I can't imagine that you'll sell a shitton more for a dollar or two less. depends on how it's promoted by kindle. for 2.99 everyone u know shld buy it! maybe u can find a study on how more will sell at the el cheapo price point. good luck, I'll buy your novella... just get crackin editing it to launch it soon. it needs a captivating title and thesis. maybe robert redford will endorse it for you heh.
