I just got my debut novel uploaded to Smashwords and am now taking pre-orders.  I am planning an October 27th release date.  Check it out here:  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/576293  You could even read the first 20% if you like.

Kindle and paperback are soon to follow.  The print cover should be done by next week.

Happy reading!

It is a book!  I sent my manuscript off for editing earlier last week.  She smoked through it over the weekend and gave me positive feedback!

I'm also on the schedule this week for cover design with Laura Shinn.  I am looking forward to seeing what she comes up with.  Laura is a wealth of information for self-publishing and I am very grateful I found her, thanks to Mark's List!  In the meantime, I'm reading the Smashwords Style Guide to prepare me for formatting, in addition to setting up my Smashwords, Createspace, and Kindle accounts.  My goal is to be published before the end of 2015.  Preferably before the holiday rush!

A Child's First Teacher

The other day, I assisted a handicapped gentleman in a wheelchair into a local business.  Even though I was in a hurry, I took the time to hold the door for him, and made sure his chair made it across the threshold.  I didn't even get a thank you out of him, though I wasn't expecting one, but I was certainly greeted with warmth from the staff members.  Most of all, my youngest saw that I helped the man and asked me about it.  I explained to her that we are supposed to help those in need.  There are little rewards, even if it's setting a good example for a child.

I am happy to say that I finally finished The Whisperer of Storms!  It consists of 50 chapters and an epilogue.  I am currently making arrangements to have it edited.  In the meantime, I've been working on a book trailer, reading up on eBook formatting for Smashwords, and thinking about a tentative release date.  Once the editing and formatting are completed, I'll have a better idea for a release date.  I am considering doing pre-orders,which I will set up once I set a date.

For my next book, I have two stories to choose from.  Both are contemporaries, which will be much easier to write than a historical.  I won't have to worry about when a phrase was coined, or when something was invented.  Since I now know what I'm doing, my second novel should take much less time to complete.  I have to stick to writing everyday.

Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
