I’ve decided to get out of KDP select by the end of the year, but before I go… The Children of the Sidhe MEGA-FREE event! From November 2nd through 6th you can get the first three titles in my Children of the Sidhe series free on Amazon. You can read excerpts from these books by […]
Thanks to hubby’s help and a fall festival at a local nursery, I had the house all to myself for a few hours yesterday. I tackled the remaining edits on Descent, the fourth Children of the Sidhe novella, and shipped it off to beta readers. Finally!! Over the course of the week, I wrote 3,300 […]
The last month has been brutal at work, and my fiction writing has definitely suffered for it. I just completed one major project (for the quarter), but I’m the primary author on a report due in a couple of weeks, so I’ll likely be waking at night thinking about youth in the labor force, not […]
I hope all of you other writers had a better start to this round than I did. But honestly, with how work has been and editing Brooke Jackson’s novel, I’m glad I put down at least a little word count this week. I chalked up 2,000 words since Monday, and about 1,000 words of plotting […]
Hello to all of my indie author friends! The time has come around for another Indie Life post — a chance for independent authors to exchange tips, offer encouragement and chat about all the crazy components of indie author life. I missed Indie Life last month because I was in Kona, Hawaii, having a wonderful […]
It’s time for another fall with Round of Words in 80 Days, the writing challenge that knows you have a life. At the moment, that’s definitely true — I don’t seem to have time to think, much less write a decent post…so I’ll get right to it and leave the quips for later. 🙂 I […]
In preparation for the release of the fourth book in my Children of the Sidhe series, I’ve commissioned new covers from Kellie Dennis at Book Cover by Design. Check ’em out!
So. You’re about to learn how crazy I can be. I took a leap last week, after seeing this blog post from Joe Konrath. He let it slip that he’s done some crazy things under pseudonyms, including challenging himself to write a book and publish it within an hour. He did it four times — […]
Welcome to another month of Indie Life, a chance for indie authors to meet, exchange news and tips, and commiserate on what it means to be an independent author. If you’d like to join us, go here. So…those summer days. They are long. I’m not sure where they’re going. 🙂 I’ve noticed a fair number […]
It was a busy summer week, with kind of an odd-ball work schedule that had me in the office on my usual day off. We also went to Eugene for a sibling’s wedding reception and to stay over with my husband’s Dad and step-Mom. Adding to the swirl of excitement over the weekend was the […]
