(cont'd)- I'm giving away hundreds
of listings on the Vault, and
as a result
of doing so, won't see one thin dime
of income on the site until October or later - Given all the time and money I've already sunk into developing the site, I don't even expect to earn back my upfront investment until sometime next year - I'm already personally reaching out to publishers on behalf

as a finder's fee if any
of those contacts result in an offer - I make my The IndieAuthor Guide available for
free on my author site and blog - I built Publetariat, a

of administration for the Publetariat site, which since its launch on 2/11
of this year, has only earned $ 36 in ad revenue; the site never has, and likely never will, earn its keep in ad revenue, but I keep it going because I know it's a valuable resource for authors and publishers - I've given away far more
copies of my novels than I've sold, because I'm a pushover for anyone who emails me to say s / he can't afford to buy them - I paid my own travel expenses to speak at this year's O'Reilly Tools

book competitions, and I read the * entire *
book in every case, despite the fact that the honorarium has never been more than $ 12 per
book — a figure that works out to less than $.50 per hour
of my time spent reading and commenting In spite
of all this, you still come here and elsewhere to insinuate I'm greedy and only out to take advantage
