Congratulations! I just bought the Kindle version and can't wait to get started reading it.

I'm working along similar lines and hope to emulate your success!

I read earlier draft copies about two years ago when OTWO was helping me through a tough time when I was in the process of being DF'ed and starting a divorce.

One, thanks, OTWO, for your help during that tough time.

Two, it's an excellent read and I highly recommend it.

Hey now, I've had stuff published as far back as 1998! You about things like virtual memory managers and parallelism in computing. That counts, right? ;)

Just gunna answer a few:

Cobaltcupcake: Success? Yeah, $12 so far. Maybe another $10 over the next quarter. Yeah, great. It's a start, though.

EP, thanks man. I am now able to say I am an author at cocktail parties. If only there were cocktail parties in my life.

Minimus, we have many authors here. Some have made whole paychecks from it. I won't list them. Let them tell us about it.

Well done!

I once wanted to be a screenwriter.

Congratulations OTWO. Is this the book I read last year?

Good deal! I know the most important thing you want to do is to tell your story, and getting some coin is a nice bonus.

My first book was a booklet I did in 1984 about the Timex/Sinclair computer. I self published and actually made some profit. A few years ago I found it had been pirated, which I consider to be an honor. If your work is unworthy of pirates stealing it, then that is sad. I sent the pirates a better quality PDF than the one they had posted since I thought my work deserved better presentation.
