Well I am not an aspiring writer I just for some reason had a nagging impulse to do this and once I started I just wanted to actually finish something. Call it an exercise in perseverance.
Anyhow yes I will charge but I will send it free to anyone here who wants a copy. I am waiting for a guy to finish the cover for me then I will add it to Amazon and mail some copies here.

But the general unsuspecting public can pay, both monetarily (and mentally after they read it.)

But I suspect your question was more on a personal level so rest assured you will not have to part with cash to be insulted by the drivel I have committed to paper.

Re: Help Me Name My Book

All will be revealed shortly, things took a little bit longer than expected to wrap up. Anyhow the title and cover are complete so hopefully I can post up the lot over the next couple of days.

Working with an editor or proof reader is soul destroying, and every time I look at the pages I see where another change could/should be made.
