This is a cool and interesting idea! It's like a private community IPO, hopefully there won't be too much taxation involved!

I appreciate your interest! I've started my sales sprint, lean start up style.

I've got this amazing author offering a 1 percentage ownership stake in her future royalties for just a hundred dollars, to get the ball rolling and create the need for what needs to be built. As for taxes, I'd get some help on that for sure, but I cut you a check for your earned royalties, you pay taxes on it, no different than the writer themselves would. I would think.

1% is a good start, but since it's still early, maybe you can negotiate a 2% for $125-$150... Doesn't hurt to try ;)
You know what, you seem like a nice guy, if it will get this company pizza profitable within 5 hours of it's conception, she's game via paypal at 2% for $175 alhenaworks@gmail.com
Sorry, but I'm not interested! I was inputting some general ideas for you to use... Cheers
Totally appreciate it, and hey, my first rejection. Eventually I'll get a yes =)
You're very welcome! We're both in the same boat, just trying to figure out the path...keep trying and feel free to stay in touch with any other questions or concerns!!! Cheers
