title: How can I diagnose why `npm publish` quietly does... nothing?
body: <p>I've created a npm package following several different sets of instructions online.  Here is what I have: <a href="https://github.com/joelarson4/CharFunk/blob/master/package.json" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/joelarson4/CharFunk/blob/master/package.json</a></p>
  
  <p>When I do an <code>npm publish</code>, I get a single newline of output (no errors, no anything).  But from what I can tell, my package is not on npmjs.org.  <a href="https://www.npmjs.org/package/CharFunk" rel="noreferrer">https://www.npmjs.org/package/CharFunk</a> is an error page.</p>
  
  <p>How can I figure out what I'm missing?</p>
