Wanna get rich..? Write a book.
 

Booksigning today...

I sold only 15 copies from walking around from class to class...

...I made $300.

And I still have mad copies with me.

-_-

sickkkk, thats pretty decent actually.......

oh yer and btw, you spelt write wrong in the thread title (you put "right") lool

Lmao @ rich. In the whole scheme of things if you think $300 is very much, you don't really know what you're talking about.

20 bucks each....not bad...what was your book about???

^ It's fantasy type shit.

Rofl @ Right.

and yeh, if i remember the exchange rate at all, $300 isnt THAT much, I doubt i'd get it walking class to class.

arent writers supposed to get a small percentage of the books price for each copy sold retail?

r
rofflrofl. You better have a good editor.

I would so write a book if I had the time. *stays on RV for more hours*

300 isnt bad for the fact he walked class to class. But if your book is on a shelf in any store you should have made alot more than that. You better get at your publishers, might be ripping you off.

why dont you stop hatin on dude........at least he got a legal hustle that made himself 300 beans!


Dont knock a nigga cuz he on his grind mayne :nono:

When was I showing hate? He said, "If you want to be rich, write a book." $300 is not even close to rich. $300 is hardly anything in the whole scheme of things. That's not hating, that's speaking the fucking truth.

So, how about you hop off of his nuts, "mayne?"

If you think $300 makes you rich then you're retarded as shit too, son.

Mim bro..

...Call me crazy.. But I'm pretty sure he was saying "wanna get rich" sarcastically...

hateration man




Congrats again on your book LE

Nuff said

Somebodys G-string is cutting off the circulation of blood to they ball sack eh???



why dont you get some shade from the desert son for the next couple days... let your brain cool off...... cuz you obivously takin this blow to your "E"go wayyyyyyyy to hard....


lol....


and as far as bein on nuts... Thats the first line of defense all you Text geeks use :laugh:

me and dude aint even tight like that... i see something imma speak on it....


Go flex your net muscles else where.... your E-pythons aint intimidatin no body

Well, I'd imagine since they are his personal copies that he would get the money from them. If you buy some candy and go around selling it, does the person give their money to the candy store and then the canndy store gives you a percent? He's not saying he is rich, Mim...he's saying get on the path of being rich while walking around by just sellin' shit.

Do I have to get into the mechanics of publishing, anyway? They buy off shelves, store gives to publisher for the books they bought, you get a percent in royalty. If you have your own copies, you're free to sell them for as much as you wish(with the added bonus of being able to increase the value a good five or so dollars just by taking five seconds to write your name. Do you make five extra dollars in a second? I don't. You might.)

I wronged a book, how much can I make off that?

ooh, lemme try

i left a book once, never got it back

^ goddamn at how 9th stole that. I saw some mofos had been pointing out the misspelling so I decided, it'd be played. :shoot:

Great minds are often used in science to build robot slaves, as they say.

Then I guess one day I shall see you on the assembly line for the future.

i dub that funny

And it would be showing my immaturity if I said it.

Whee.

Wow at the haters...

Fuck you all.

Anyway...thanks for the people who did support me.

Oh, and I sold more after I posted that. I made $450.

We made $6000 at our last show... Not bad for an hours work. Of course the DJ had to work a few extra hours as he dj'd a party after... But meh - quick money man, ain't nothing like it.... LE's doin his thing for real. Good looks...

ps - that 'left a book' line was pretty funny tho.

I don't think he mentioned that 'making quick money' means writing a book, editing over and over for months until it's perfect, going through the grueling publishing process where you tear your book apart and rewrite it AGAIN, then you rewrite it, then you get more people to read it, then you rewrite some more, then you publish it, and this is excluding the months it takes to get an agent if you plan on getting a good deal.

$200 in ten minutes thats pretty damb good.....dont worry bro they just jelous

I know.

What are you doing later you fucker..?

I aint doin shit u??

Nothing much, D. I might head over to my dad's, but we can get a beer later.

$450 is nothin great, but $450 in a single day sho is
keep that up n u WILL be rich, n all thats without any in-store sales

$450 is a killing in one day...but half that was in ten minutes
