Thank you. No, really. Thank you. We will in all likelihood never meet but I just want you to know that no matter the degree of success I achieve, I will fondly recall this post.
I feel compelled to buy your stuff now; what would you say is your personal 'best' / favorite? Crocodiles are by far my favorite animal, so perhaps that is the route?
Do you have an email I can contact you at? It's okay if you don't want to give it out; heck, I would not post my own email on 4chins. But you seem like you're where I hope to be soon and I could really use a mentor or just some tips here and there.

>My advice for Amazon would be to stick to a genre, and try to release things consistently.
I have a general genre of horror/grotesque with a theme of biology and extinctions across my unrelated stories.
I have a 90k word 'novel' on Neanderthals that I am editing, and a bunch of much shorter projects including a 40k about a Tyrannosaurus rex living at the end of the Cretaceous. Not to overload you with "ME ME ME" but I am just giving you some perspective on what Im working on, so I can ask you the following:
Should I release multiple shorter works as a singular package/collection? How should I advertise, and where have you gotten your audience? Did you get official copyright for your stories? Are you at all unsettled by the possibility of stealing? Again, apologies for the schizo-tier barrage of questions. I don't mean to waste your time. You can ignore any that don't interest you or simply not respond further; you've already been very helpful.
