I realize this isn't quite the right area for this query (wish there was a right area) *but I've gotten curious about this.
Has anybody started an online writing project, then moved it to ebook, and ended up getting published by a "real" publisher?
Or know of anybody else who has followed that trajectory?
(I realize that could describe books by Cory Doctorow, for instance, but am more interested in unknown writers who have followed that path for success.)
(I'm NOT interested in denunciations of the self-publishing process)
