, A little-known area of my Writing life
The Word
Many years ago, I wrote an online serial for several weeks; it was loosely based on the classic Ray Bradbury science fiction story - Fahrenheit 451- I added more twists from my warped world of science fiction. A world which later created my bestselling eBook series - Forgestriker - the first four stories have sold over 1,100 eBooks.
At one time, the serial had over 100 daily readers, why did I stop the serial? It became apparent that figure was not a true figure, boosted by readers being bored with Christmas TV, once the period ended the figures dropped to a point were I was writing more pages than I got readers. That didn't mean I wrote a lot, but I had few readers, at this stage I ended the serial.
Later, I tried to turn my stories into an eBook serial, but by this time my sales were next to nil, and have remained as such since 2013. I found the files for my story a few years ago, I had written over 90 pages of this story, and I had visions of the story doing more, what was the point?
