Fantastical branches and precious twigs

blanketed by freefalling sleet

sleeves of frosty insulation

oh Winterland, thy blustery treat

from the bounty of a crisp and chilly snap

breaking the silence where crystal statues wane

When I first started writing and self publishing, I made a lot of rookie mistakes. I sent out ridiculous amounts of marketing blitzes on Twitter, spent money on Facebook ads (Note to any newbie author reading this: do not waste money on Facebook ads.
