Pubit!

I was just browsing the Nook page on the Barnes and Noble website when I came across this new thing called "pubit!". It's a thing that will allow regular people like me write their own book and upload all the files to the pubit page and they will sell your book and give you a cut of the money.



You know it's funny because I am in the process of writing an autobiography. I'm not famous enough to write one but people have been telling me for years that I should write a book with all the stories I have told about my messed up childhood. So why not write a book?



Well, I've been thinking, if I do write this book I have no guarantee that a publisher will publish it for me. I could spend the next 6 months to 2 years writing just to be turned down. So, this gives me a chance to do it and make it happen.



So I signed up. It's not available yet but they say to sign up and I will be told when they start up so I can begin uploading all my files. Well, I still have awhile. I'm only in the middle of my first chapter and who knows how long this book will end up being with all the stories that I have to tell.



One thing I'm going to do is read an actual autobiography from someone who is famous to give me more of an idea of what I should put in it and what I should leave out. Oh there are a ton of things that I'm not going to reveal only because it's very sexual. Yeah that part of my life will be left out lol.
