Thanks for sharing!

Years ago, I wrote three books in a similar manner However, I need to reclaim them from the publisher so that I can have full control. They need to be updated, from the content to the book covers.

Regarding Gumroad.

I thought the platform would be easy to use., but there's a technical element to it, like connecting your site's DNS to Gumroad's URL (you could use the URL Gumroad suggests). Once I figure that out, I should be good to go. Or I may hire someone to handle it so that I can focus on other things. And then I can write about it and help others. :-)

P.S. I suspect that the other platforms will have technical components too.

I'm just using the Gumroad URL myself, eventually I plan to build a "shop" on Carrd using Gumroad embed buttons/cart.

I'm curious, Jamie, have you started writing a book with Notes yet? I want to follow along!

Love the concept Jamie !

I need an example, it’s a bit blurry how you "cut" each part into Notes.

But definitely something I’ll test soon !

Why not as « Advent calendar » in December for Christmas (Calendrier de l’avent, I don’t how to says it in English).

Advent calendar is the correct English term and you can definitely do that.

If you tell me which book type you want to make from the types I listed I can tell you how I would cut them into Notes :)

It’s going to be hard to start on Sunday, but I thought about it today.

I don’t have an idea (yet), I wish I knew your method few weeks ago 😂

I’ll think about it tomorrow and maybe just start to write and see where my mind goes.

Thanks for your help Jamie ! I’ll tell you :)

Great idea thank you. I am nearing the end of publishing a set of Notes with pictures of a walk through London. I am using them to highlight the Limited Edition prints I produced from it. I have other sets of Notes in draft and a short ebook as a lead magnet/ pay what you want, could work really well

Solid plan Graham!

Good idea. I rather like the idea of a series of fiction stories told through Notes.

Thanks Allen, I find it's easier to publish this way.
