Nerdtopia.com (under it's current owner) was founded in 2006 as a place for all
things nerd. Initially starting as a place to house a simple Java based 8 tiered
chess program and later an 8 tiered reversi program which are still available
today, the site has hummed along with thousands of happy downloaders until one
fateful day.
On that day I had completed my first novel "The New Breede". Proud of my
creation I looked at editing options, publication, self-publication, and
distritubtion of all sorts only to find a maze of options that were not only
expensive, but garunteed that my three years work would be buried underneath
piles of better known/funded names to launguish in obscurity. Where could I go
if I wanted to post my work for the world to see and have people actually find
it? If I had created a video, or pictures, or music, or software there were lots
of sites that I could do just that, but with written works? The sites out there
just didn't seem to cut it. What I really wanted was a site like the the ones
I'd seen for video/music/pictures/software but for books/peoms/scripts etc.
Something that was amateur friendly. Something that wouldn't cost me lots of
money just for the privelge of not being read. Something I could casually post
my work and not have to think about selling enough copies to cover the cost of
printing or begging publishers to look. Wouldn't it be great if there were a
site like that? If only I knew someone who could build a site like that.
Oh wait, I'm a programmer. Enjoy the site. (And please read my book) |
