FREE FICTION? How does it work, what’s the deal?

To begin with, the massive, free online gay fantasy novel LEGENDS lives here:

!! This is the url to pass along to your friends: the direct link to the book’s Cover Page.

How does the “deal” work? It’s absolutely simple. Mel Keegan is running an experiment
 to find out if reader support – via the advertising on the pages where the fiction lives – 
will raise enough funds to reimburse an author for the time and trouble it takes to produce 
top-notch, full-professional level fiction.

In this day and age, imagine being able to get your favourite reading free! 

On the other hand, a professional writer must pay the bills somehow. 

Now, “free to air TV” pays for itself with advertising. The question is, will “free to 
download fiction” do the same?

Scroll down on the LEGENDS page, and you’ll find all manner of shopping and deals, including 
good old fashioned ads from Mother Google itself.

Folks: we all know how this works.

Like the idea of free fiction, like free TV?

Then, simply “support your local” – and here’s how:

1. Tell your friends, get them on board … if you’re enjoying a great gay read with LEGENDS, 
then recommend it to others. Send the  url to friends you know will enjoy the read and 
appreciate the pricetag! (For the same of sheer simplicity -- forward this whole message.)

And,

2. Notice the ads. Keep in mind that MK has bills to pay too, and … hey, you know how it works, right?

You’re free to download, copy the novel to any device you like and read at your leisure; print it out, if 
you prefer. But –

Don’t just send the files to your friends. Send the the url! For the advertising to pay for the writer’s time, 
your friends have to actually be on the page – sending them the files will defeat the object. Just forward 
this whole message, and …

Enjoy!
