#BadNews & A Question About #FreeReads - #GiveUp?

Well, it seems as though I have the rights back to my books and I've searched the last couple months for another publisher with zero - and I mean zero - luck.

So I just give up and toss away what I've written and not bother moving forward? I know publishing and what is good and what isn't is all subjective but I am losing a lot of the excitement I once had for writing.

The other choice is to put everything as a free read. Maybe one series on blog and one in a newsletter and maybe get enough readers to release a 3rd series as self published?

Thoughts?
Anyone been there, done that?
