I've gone and done it now. I've taken the final step and released online content - self publishing last year's underground and hard to find hit super-hero novel Cobalt City Blues. It will be made available through Bitpass. Got to admit, if not for the multiple suggestions by this novel's biggest fan, I wouldn't be pursuing this route. But the sad fact is, this is a tough genre to sell. Sure, publishers love science fiction, and they love fantasy, but put it in a contemporaty setting and throw in a bit of leather or spandex and they get nervous. Well, there isn't any reason for you to get nervous.
In the true spirit of comic books adventure, I'm making the book available to the general public at two chapters for $.50. Yep. That's less than what you used to be able to buy a comic book for twenty years ago. Fifty cents. Two shiny quarters. And Bitpass.com makes it incredibly easy for you to do. Signup takes no time at all and is hassle free, even easier if you have a Microsoft Passport! I did a lot of research, and this is the only micropayment provider who really had a grasp on what I was trying to do.
The first two chapters should be available by cliking on the link below. Rather than release an overwhelming flood of material all at once, I'm electing to update on this site weekly. New sections in two chapter portions should be available every Wednesday.
So put on that cape and cowl, and join in the adventure that is Cobalt City Blues!
