And it landed me a multi-book deal with St. Martin's Press for my YA paranormal series 13 to Life (launching in 2010). Rich? Nope (except in excitement and fresh opportunity). But I'm a big supporter of sites like Textnovel.com (where I won the Grand Prize in 2008). My abbreviated and serialized version of 13 to Life is still available for free there, and although it changed significantly from cellphone novel to paperback, it was born on a whim and grew first on the internet. :-) Have fun experimenting with digital lit--you never know where it'll take you! ~Saoirse Redgrave Author of the 13 to Life series (launching in 2010 from St. Martin's Press) Find me at http://13toLife.us , http://13toLife.us/blog and http://Twitter.com/AuthorSaoirse_R Very good (and interesting) points, Alan. ;-) Digital lit can be amazingly freeing and tremendously flexible.
