I don't blame the publishers. It makes perfect sense to me. <br /><br />But there's as much loss as gain, I suppose. Dean Koontz always hated using pen names but was forced by publishers, yet re-releases of those books do very well as Koontz titles. All the same umbrella. Heck, William Goldman is one of my favorites and about as diverse as it gets.Scott Nicholsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16648292098190127457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933014255877784771.post-27626969124844986072010-01-19T07:13:55.967-08:002010-01-19T07:13:55.967-08:00Scott,

While I do tend to prefer the dark and macabre, you are one of the few authors I would be willing to follow no matter what genre (except maybe harlequin romance). I also agree with the previous comment regarding pen names; I don't think you need to have one just to write a different genre. Whatever you write comes from Scott Nicholson.<br /><br />Just my two cents.<br /><br />-DIBookhound78https://www.blogger.com/profile/01920498357072643664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933014255877784771.post-91744527505439920472010-01-17T18:46:54.600-08:002010-01-17T18:46:54.600-08:00I disagree that Scott Nicholson should die. He'...I disagree that Scott Nicholson should die. He's just waking...and new audiences will find him and cherish him...like a good many of us do.<br /><br />I urge you to reconsider and allow the development of the dark fiction writer that is Scott to remain.<br /><br />If you want to play in other genres under a different name, consider this...when Picasso went through his various phases and styles... did he use another name? No...some liked it. Some didn't. For some reason, writers feel they have to change their names when they change genres. It's mental.<br /><br />Be who you are...a good writer...keep the name...build the profile.<br /><br />Neil J.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933014255877784771.post-48344577707113252682010-01-04T22:15:05.872-08:002010-01-04T22:15:05.872-08:00Scott,

I hope that you find success (more readership) in this venture. I feel that your works definitely deserve a much wider audience. <br /><br />-Dark IntruderBookhound78https://www.blogger.com/profile/01920498357072643664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933014255877784771.post-76601620599090219312009-12-22T14:33:08.416-08:002009-12-22T14:33:08.416-08:00I've been earning about $500-a-month on Kindle...I've been earning about $500-a-month on Kindle editions of my out-of-print books. That really adds up...especially since the alternative would be to earn nothing off the books. I really had nothing to lose. But, like you and Joe Konrath, I have the benefit of already being an established writer. I would never recommend that an aspiring writer put his unsold novel on the Kindle. He might earn a couple of dollars, but it's not going to be nearly enough compensation for the likely harm he will do to himself by circulating a lousy, amateurish piece of work. <br /><br />LeeLee Goldberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13442268370192897461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1933014255877784771.post-17638988651381643312009-12-18T11:57:18.765-08:002009-12-18T11:57:18.765-08:00Thanks for the helpful links, particularly the one...Thanks for the helpful links, particularly the one for Miss Snarks!
