Random thoughts about the world of publishing and the importance of ONE thing you can do as a writer.

Whew…I Still Love Ya’ll!
So…long time no see! The hubs convinced me to start a YouTube channel. Could seriously use some love over there, lol. Anybody game to watch a “welcome to my channel” video? It’s scary… Side note: I write better than I talk…consider yourself warned!

All things being equal…
Okay, my little book marketing experiment was an abysmal failure. On to the next thing, right? What is that next thing? Write, write some more…share on social media, make a book trailer (because it’s fun, that’s why) and… Write some more!!!! Just in case you’re curious, what is the next story? In His Name is…

Fun With Book Marketing
Yes…you read that right…FUN with book marketing! Just made a new cover for my short story, Visitor to Blue Lake, published a century ago in 2017. What do you think? It’s a “mystery”…and I use that term loosely… Want to see what kind of impact – if any – this change has on my views…

Dean Wesley Smith: Long Time Pro Tells it Like it Is
So…I’ve been hanging out some on GoodReads and came across a recently posted blog shared by Dean Wesley Smith who’s been writing for 40+ years. He shared a video from a talk he gave at a book conference in Las Vegas. Love, love, love this talk and worth the watch, however I’ll summarize what I…

NaNoWriMo Rebel??
Yep. My current WIP, In His Name is at about 10,000+ words now. I do believe it’s the longest story I’ve written so far and I’m nowhere near finished with the telling of it. In fact, I’m thinking it’s probably going to end up being about the size of a novel. So, considering the time…

Fodder for story time?
Hey blog…sending you some love… So where have I been? Well, I’m still breathing, praise God, only now I’m doing it in Glasgow. Scotland? Ha…I wish! Nope, but the city we’re living in is still a good city anyway, even if it’s not somewhere exotic (to me, anyway). Glasgow, Kentucky. What? Yep. We sold our…

Lots of FREE and reduced price ebooks, fiction, non-fiction, cowboys on ostriches, snake people, whatever weird, unusual, or warm and cozy thing you like to read, you can probably find it there.

February…Already? Oy!
I’m convinced that there’s a nasty little gremlin, with beady eyes and short, black hair jutting out from its wrinkled, putrid green skin who has crept unawares into my life. This gremlin steals bits and bobs of my time until before I know it, we’re in the middle of the first quarter of 2019. Okay,…

It’s Wednesday
No, not the dark little Adaams girl…the middle of the week, silly. 🙂 It’s been a bit tough getting back into the swing of things client-wise…my head space is still on vacation (engaged in a vicarious binge watching full-time RV living videos when I should be writing, why do you ask?) However, with deadlines looming,…
