It’s that time of year again! The time we start thinking about writing camp. The King’s Daughters’ Writing Camp is open for registration now and we are filling up the tents. If you’ve never heard of KDWC, here’s a quick rundown of it. That’s camp in a nutshell. If you want to know more, you […]
New Camp Journal!
After feedback and comments and suggestions and thoughts, I finally did it. I created a brand new writing camp journal! I wanted a journal that would last a full year of camps, one that had enough of the trail trackers, but not a full page to journal. I also never liked how wide the lines […]
Why My Books are on KU
When it comes to marketing my books, I’m no expert. In fact, I’d consider myself way down on the list of who to ask for advice about marketing your books. However, there is one thing I do that does help my books be read. When I first started my publishing journey, I really didn’t know […]
Forgotten Site to the Rescue!
I was a new blogger on WordPress. I didn’t know much about the site, but I had moved over from Blogger because it would make things easier for sharing my books and such. (It also gave me assurance that my site wouldn’t be deleted without warning.) In the first months I was doing all right. […]
New Short Story and . . .
Today is the day I’ve been waiting for. I’ve wished for this day for years but didn’t go beyond wishing until this January. Then I decided to change from wishing to doing. And now here it is! I’d like to introduce My very first (hopefully not last) mini course! This 6-week course walks you step-by-step […]
WriteMind Planner–Part 2
There’s a lot to be said about these planners! Not only are they great for writers (check out last week’s post), but I love using mine for other things. It’s just nice to have everything in one place. It’s not quite my “brain” but it comes close. Ready? Don’t you just love that colorful pocket? […]
WriteMind Planner–Part 1
I didn’t think I’d use it. I wasn’t a planner. But it looked so fun. Perhaps, well, just maybe I would use it – some. Yes, those were my thoughts about the WriteMind Planner when Perry first introduced us to her new writer’s notebook. It took a while before I decided to get one for […]
She Saved My Sanity
Once upon a time I became an author. I wrote books. Long novels, shorter novellas, stories, and more. I could tell my stories and write them with feeling. I learned how to format and design covers. I explored and figured out many of the things in the self-publishing world. But one thing caused trouble. Synopsis. […]
Special Post!
Did you ever wish you could see your book cover in a prominent place? Or wish you had an artistic picture of your kindle book? Or maybe you just need an image to promote your sale. I have just the thing for you! Several months ago I introduced you to Book Brush and showed you […]
Book Brush Review!
Wow! Oh, wow! Oh, wow! Oh, WOW! Those were my thoughts and words as I began to play with Book Brush. It’s fun. It’s easy. And it’s addictive! It’s made my life SO much easier as an author. Except that it’s addicting. But what on earth is Book Brush? The best way I can describe […]
