Does anybody know if releasing a book on the Kindle store will ruin the chances of a distributor picking it up?
-Would there be any copyright issues?
-If there are good sales and good reviews, would it help me in 'selling' it to a distributor?


My Book Writing Tactic:

I'm currently writing the book in parts. The book is targeted at a first-time freelancer (self taught or recent college grad) teaching them how to generate gig leads.

I'm writing a single chapter, releasing it as a 'booklet/article' on the kindle store, rinse and repeat until the book is complete. I then combine into a full-size book, add the proper transitions, and maybe a few 'bonus' chapters, and sell it at a discount (sum of all previous prices *~0.7).

Using this model I can get feedback along the way (never written a book before), I can get 'paid as I go' (jobless right now and strapped for cash), and even if a distributor isn't interested I didn't waste my time.
