So cool, thank you!

It just occurred to me that maybe I've been forgetting to post about the most obvious and important thing. Someone added a really nice review for Jump When Ready on Amazon today. Not a blogger or reviewer, just a reader who somehow learned about my book and really liked it. It's such a cool feeling knowing someone out there read and enjoyed my work. It's just amazing every time. I will never get over that feeling. Couldn't possibly.

Editing phase...

In the editing phase of the novel I'm working on, telling myself the day will come when that doesn't mean rewriting every paragraph. Denial...

Goodreads Giveaway Winners!

Congratulations to Shalee, Sylvia, Elizabeth, Amber and Branden -- winners of print copies from the Goodreads giveway contest. Over 900 people entered to win, so you did good!

For those who didn't win, I wish I could give everyone a print copy but, sadly, I’m not wealthy. So, what I’m thinking I can do by way of thanks is drop the price of the ebook this week only on Amazon to $0.99. 

Thanks again for entering and have a great week!

Day of the Doctor!

Okay, I know this has nothing to do with books or writing  but I really love Dr. Who. Very excited about this BBC 50th anniversary special...

Guest post on Michele Young-Stone's blog

A friend recently opened her blog for other writers to add guest-posts about writing (or their projects or whatever). Such a cool idea and I was really happy to be included! Ironically, my post on Michele Young-Stone’s blog is much longer than anything I’ve ever posted here. But, I guess, this isn’t really a blog about writing so much as it’s a blog (so far) about what I’ve written or will be writing. Does that make sense? Yeah, I’m not sure either.

Anyway, to hear a little about my feelings about indie publishing, you can read my post on Michele’s blog. Thanks, Michele!

Oh, if you just came here from Michele's blog you won't want to click that link above. Otherwise, you'll be stuck a blog loop. Very dangerous...
