I'm all for votes and simple ways to get involved. But I doubt I'd like to pay a subscription fee to really "work" with you on your book, read it in bits and changed bits and re-changed bits. I want to see the final product, not pay to be "beta tester" or even your gopher

That's just me, so don't trash your plans just yet

But since I'd like to see your dark comedy go ahead, I might consider some kind of pre-order thing .... like pre-order a book that's not even written yet
