Have you considered using LeanPub for this?
Never heard much about them. Looking at their site now, I
like that
they focus on getting chapters in front of readers right away,
while
they're being written (which almost every writer should be
doing), but
don't like their emphasis on producing books at the end.
A categorized/tagged blog with comments is a much better
experience than
a static book with a table of contents and index, yet they
import blog
posts and turn them into a book! The only reason is that
books have a
long-standing payment model in place: it's as though everyone
were still
selling buggies because there are only buggy dealers and no
car dealers
yet.
It is all beyond idiotic: it is amazing how long antiquated
ideas stick
around, only because people cannot imagine anything else.
I've got two books through leanpub.
It is ideal for a magazine or books.
If you want help, please let me know!
I would be happy to help for it.
Are you offering to write for a D blog or to get it set up on
leanpub? I'd never use an external platform like leanpub where I
don't control the source, as one of the main points would be to
add new paid blog features like the ones I've mentioned above.
