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 of

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 of Change conference, nearly $ 1000, just to be part of the Rise of Ebooks panel and raise awareness about self - published
