Why do books the bestselling books suck really bad?
I havent seen one best selling book that looks interesting and the ones I read are boring. I struggle to even get past the first chapter of books. A book made into a movie is alot better then the books itself. Davinci code was boring but the movie was awesome. The book started out with some mumble jumble that didnt make sense.
When an author of a book dies, who gets the money from the sells ?
If the book is still in copyright (in most countries, if the author has been dead less than 70 years), someone is entitled to the author's share of the money. If the author made a will, that would specify who gets the money. If he didn't make a will, who gets the money depends on the laws of the country where he lived. It can end up spread quite thinly if he had a lot of relatives. Even if the book is out of copyright, physical books still cost money to print and distribute. Retailers sell their products for what consumers are willing to pay.
Do people really make money by publishing eBooks in Kindle?
NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT A MAIN POINT!!!!Great to know people can make money with an ebook. Not a new revelation. I think the question should be, “How?” FIRST:Are these stories true? Yes. How do they do it? I am in marketing and I spend energy nudging books into the spotlight. It is not always necessary to have marketing but it can really help!Most people offer advertisement to anybody who has an ebook, or audio tape. I don’t do that. WHY?I always want to read at least a page or two to see the author’s style, format, and quality of the writing. This is important! For example, did you know that science fiction is one of the hottest markets right now? Or that How-To books can really sell well? Facts like these help me determine if a book is worth my time.What Would I Suggest?A book that has numerous errors is not worth the time. Readers will get frustrated and it won’t sell. If I am wrong on the latter please refer me to a book that has sold over ten thousand copies that are riddled with errors! Do you get me?On Amazon (For Audio Books I recommend NON-EXCLUSIVE) the most important factor is reviews. The more reviews you get, the better it will sell. Of course, these reviews need to be more positive than negative. But— ya— Reviews matter.The topic is essential. When I run into a topic that does fit well but is written flawlessly, I still consider different angels of publication. I frequently look to see if I can match the topic of a book with another book that is very successful. This can be important.ENOUGH SUGGESTIONS! CAN I GET RICH?!?!?Honestly— Unlikely. If you can write well, have the time, energy, and revenue, and knowledge— you can be successful. However, I find that most people who land on this question read it because they are looking for easy ways to make money and the thought of talent does not occur.Truman Capote was a brilliant and talented writer. He is one of the most famous writers of recent times and he said something that I believe is true…You either have the talent or you do not. It is not something you can learn.Kind Regards,Max

How much money could I make breeding bearded dragons?
I answered your last post about this and i'm trying to save repeating myself. Instead, i'm going to try instilling some common sense upon you and ask a question: If it was an easy method to make money, with all the people looking for a quick buck especially in the current economic climate, don't you think everyone would be doing it? The only people making money are those with 10+ breeding pairs producing high colour morphs and your $800 isn't going to be enough to get you started. You initial investment would have to be more like $5000-$10000 and maybe then you might just break even. I'll tell you now - i wouldn't buy from a 14 year old breeder even if he was producing solid gold bearded dragons and i don't think any of the people i know who also keep bearded dragons would.
