About to wrap the fifth book in my series. Hitting the realization that man's reach exceeds his grasp and the epic scale I've reached may be biting off more than I can chew

I want to discourage public sharing of original ideas, unless published. Also, only share stories with people you trust.
Yeah I echo this. Don't post anything you want to submit either.

Third-ed. Lurkers are always looking for ideas to steal Tongue be careful with your IP.

Interesting, have you gotten published yet, or do you plan on being published?

I self-pub on Amazon and Smashwords. Tradpub didn't appeal to me

I've heard bad things about Amazon's publishing.

You're not going to find many other publishers for self-pub with their reach. Smashwords has never impressed me. Dunno much about D2D

     I usually spend a lot of time plotting it out in my head. Once I am satisfied with what I have there, I'll sit down and put 8-10 pages on paper. I have someone look over it and give suggestions. The I redraft. I usually only do two drafts instead of three, which from what I have been made to understood is somewhat unusual.

I usually only do two drafts myself. I also usually don't outline

Nice! This is the sixth book in the previously mentioned series, right?

Technically the fifth. There are two spinoff prequels set in-universe too

So you're actually published? Can you at least share if it is fiction or nonfiction, and what genre?

Self pub on Amazon. It's science fiction.
