http://www.insecurewriterssupportgroup.com/Marketing. Ain't It a Bitch?You've probably figured out by the title, marketing is not my strong suit. In fact, I think that's true for a lot of writers. If we were geared toward marketing, we would have went into marketing instead of writing, correct? At least that's my story, and I'm sticking it to it. Grin.I twitter: some. I facebook: some. I won't go so far as to say facebook creeps me out, but it makes me distinctly uneasy. It's like the whole world is watching you. And some of the things on facebook: Move over Jerry Springer. Why would you want to put THOSE kind of details out there.And yet on the upset side of the equation, I enjoy blogging. It seems more intimate somehow. You and a band of bloggers grow into online friends. Now granted people can find you just as easily as as they can on facebook, but how many take the time to look?I do contests. Though, I'm not sure how much effect it has in the world of sales.Alex Cavanaugh had a unique marketing idea and set up a website titled What Are The Kargrandes prior to the release of Dragon of the Stars. Is that a neat idea or what? Kudos on this, Alex. You're always thinking.Love, Lattes and Danger is coming out in August. I would love some help from the innovative side of the house. Got any ideas?

Tips For Fire Prevention
The other day I got a group email saying that plastic air freshener plug ins could cause fires. Since that's a pretty commonplace device for most of us, I decided to find out if this was fact or fiction. So, I contacted an online bud, whose husband just happens to be a firefighter and got the skinny. Yes, plastic fragrance plug ins can cause fires.
She also mentioned that dryer vents should be cleaned after every use. I knew this but I wasn't aware they are one of the top causes of house fires. And to add to that, my appliance repairman suggests getting the dryer ventilation blown out every two years.
And last but not least, sleep with the bedroom door closed. If a fire breaks out in another part of the house, it can give you precious minutes to escape.

Monday: Fasting Day
I may have mentioned that the doctor put my husband on a diet that consists of fasting twice a week and I went on it with him for support. Yup, you guessed it, it's fasting day.
