Good words. My friends and followers both here and Facebook have prodded me to write a book, or compile one of my poetry writings.
Self publishing was too horribly complicated, "PAGE PUBLISHING" the only real publisher I contacted, wanted over $3,000 up front, while only guaranteeing to print a set number, place them in stores and websites, but nothing more.
I don't have 3 grand+ to drop that way, and be stuck with 400 (I guess) copies of my book to give away.
How does one go about getting a 'goodreads' recommendation? I go to goodreads for quotes and references.
Post upvoted, btw ♥

Thank you @jerrytsusser :) it's been a pleasure following your work on Steemit! While your friends and I would be the first in line for a copy of your book, I definitely understand why you made that decision.
It seems this is the way marketing is going, and I think it's time for writers to think unconventionally if they want to find a more meaningful following.
In truth, the comments and shares of my posts have dwindled to almost nothing in the last week or so.
Very discouraged at this point. :(Thank you for the compliment @sarahtops9000. It is heartwarming to think that there are really people following me.
It has been a bit dry lately :( I'm hoping to keep active and supporting other's content as much as I can.
