Events (What you didn’t know, you need to know)
Happy Wednesday Scribblers. Well, we’ve done it. We are back to attending local and distant events. It’s been wonderful to get out there and see people, make contacts, sign and sell books, and have fun. Over the last couple of months, I’ve been to a few local events with plans for more to come. Today, I wanted to talk about all the things authors need to know, when we plan for, and go to events.
These are some fun pics from the events I’ve been at.

June 2022 Announcements
Happy Wednesday Scribblers. Can you believe it’s June 1st? I sure can’t. The beginning of June means we start the month of Pride, and we have so much to be proud of. However, given the state of the world today, there is still so much we need to be better at. So, let’s all promise each other we will do better. We will be better people. We will treat each other with dignity and respect. We will bring light to darkness. We will support each other and be there for each other. And most importantly, w...

Guest Blog with Emz (Horroraddicts.Net)
Happy Wednesday Scribblers. If you’ve noticed I’ve been doing a lot of posting about Horror Addicts Guide to Life 2 (learn more here) over the last couple of weeks. Well, the reason for this is because I have an article in the publication, and I figured since they were nice enough to include my article the least I can do is support them by offering up some blog space.
So this week, I’m thrilled to have Emz here to share all about HorrorAddicts.Net with us today.

Calling All Horror Fans! HorrorAddicts.net Press Presents:
Excerpt from When Did You Know?
by M.D. Neu
People ask and are curious about my coming out. I get asked this a lot by my straight co-workers and friends. It’s kind of funny because if you flip the questions to, “When did you know you were straight?” It's silly. Anyway, I don’t mind sharing my sto...

Spectrum Books
Happy Wednesday Scribblers. It’s been another busy week for me. I hope you saw the photos, or better yet were able to come, and visit at the Bay Area Book Festival in Berkeley, CA this last weekend. The festival was amazing, and I was so thrilled to be with my wonderful author group from the Bay Area Queer Writers Association (learn more here). It was a blast; however, the event was a big eye opener on how important our voices are. We were the only queer book group at the whole event. And the bo...

eBook Short Story Giveaway - LandsEnd
Happy Wednesday Scribblers. This week I have a special offer for all my Scribblers (if you are reading this, that would mean you).

Since the original publication, I’ve worked on the story, added to it, and in general cleaned it up a bit more. I couldn’t be more pleased with how this short story turned out...
