If you are not in a hurry, perhaps we could cooperate on creating a new site for literature, under various categories?
I am trying (with my brother) to put a deal together and if it happens I will have enough to create a web site where people can download books, stories and so on for free or for pay. I was hoping I could have prices between $2 and $5 - I think the Amazon gimmick of putting all books at 99c as being a killer for fine lit.
Short stories and poems could either be anthologised so as to be for pay, or allow visitors to download them for free - somewhat similar to : https://www.baen.com/allbooks/category/index/id/2012

Talking about steemit earnings, I had a nice surprise today. A poster put up an article about empathy and I made a comment. The next day she responded, asking for my book...to stop her from trying to read it, I posted a rather lengthy comment, explaining my beliefs and why I wrote the book and why it makes me happy when I see people stop reading.
Another person upvoted my comment - and it was a larger payout than I get for an entire posting. If I've understood how the money side works here, it looks like I am to receive about 2 STEEM.
It is not the amount that makes me happy, it was the pleasant surprise, as it showed he had understood my somewhat contrived way of thinking :))
