An Experiment

I have begun an experiment…well, maybe exploring a different path would be a more apt way of terming it.
Over the course of the last several weeks, I set up an account on Smashwords, and yesterday, I published an e-book novelette there. (In case any of you may be wondering, a novelette is longer than a traditional short story, but shorter than a novella.) I was accepted into their premium catalog, which means my novelette will be offered for sale by various retailers including, but not limited to, iBooks, Kobo, B&N, Oyster, and Scribd. And, yes, Amazon too.
My plan–and they often go astray–is to publish at least two more stories there by the end of the year in a series of what I think of as my “Kingdom Stories”.
The Preacher Man, my first outing, takes place in The Kingdom, which is an alternate Earth. This is a story that first appeared in Space and Time a few years ago. The rights reverted back to me on publication, so I am free to use it in any way I see fit.
I love this world I created, so much so that I’ve written two more stories that take place there, (both of these were published in magazines also) and am working on two others when I take breaks from my novel rewrite.
So to sum it up, I’m going to see if I can sell better through Smashwords or Amazon.
If you wish to go take a look at my profile page on Smashwords, and maybe purchase The Preacher Man,  :) then go here. On my profile page, click on the title and it will take you to the page to view a bit about the plot and to buy–if you wish.
In a few months, I’ll post again to share my findings.
