22/ although some months I do a bit better, like in August, when I made about $100k https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tjic/escape-the-city-a-how-to-homesteading-guide/ …pic.twitter.com/7ic5NSpD56
23/ so, like I said, it's not bad, for a hobby I do after the farmwork and my actual day job are done.

I posted the sales figures because @TweetsBeach asked for them, three distinct times, IIRC.
The reason I haven't defended my style is that you haven't asked me to.
And, frankly, I feel no need to. >>>https://twitter.com/prettyXricky/status/1308106673656074240 …

26/ My defense of my style is this: I have been reading fiction for over 40 years. I've read thousands of books, some of them great, some of them terrible. I have read dozens if not a hundred books about writing, about style, literary criticism, etc. I trust myself >>>
27/ to know what makes fiction work, and when it fails. And then I wrote, re-wrote, and re-re-re-re-wrote until my output matched my own [ very ] high standards. As always, I trust myself far more than I trust anyone else.
28/
Anyway, @TweetsBeach , you asked for my sales figures, and I gave them.
Any further critique on that score? You want to poast your own?
I cant back up and start over. But I dont see the point in slobberin over it. And I cant see where it would make me feel better to be able to point a finger at somebody else.
I’ve just been copy pasting McCarthy text from Wikiquotes on here. Sorry.
