POINT OF VIEW: I’m Not Writing, and It’s the EU’s Fault

by
GDPR

It’s one of those weeks. As a writer, we like to write. It’s kinda our thing. But often our attention gets called away by other things. Some of these are life events, big and small – the laundry, a school play, the death of a family member. Some of these are even writing-related, like the need to promo our books, or if we are self publishing for the first time, to learn the ropes and figure out how to send our new book out into the world. Hello. And some of them are thrust upon us violently and without warning. … Read more

I have dived into the deep end, and the water’s rising high! This week, I started seriously working on my first self publication project – The River City Chronicles. Not the manuscript – that’s been done for months. I’m talking about the nitty-gritty work of preparing all the stuff and submitting it to distributors to actually get the book out there. It’s a lot harder than I thought. I’m using Vellum to prep the book, and it’s been a fricking Godsend. Very easy to use, and so many options. I can see what the book will look like in ALL … Read more

POINT OF VIEW: Punch Drunk and Slap Happy

by
Sleepy Scott

I have to admit, I approached the prospect of writing today’s column with a bit of trepidation. It’s almost never a good idea to write sleepy. I spent a lot of yesterday afternoon and evening prepping my first book for self publication – “The River City Chronicles” should come out in about a month or so, date to be announced soon. Then I spent the rest of the night in bed obsessing over what I still had to do. You see, I have this condition called writer’s’s brain. In the clear morning light, it’s obvious that most of the stuff I … Read more
