Embrace Your Geekness Day

Yes, I'm a geek and I'm not ashamed to show it. In fact, I'm quite proud of the diverse ways that I geek:

* I geek out about biology and have earned a Bachelor's degree pursuing an interest in marine mammal biology.

* I geek out about food and cooking, have written two cookbooks and have a food blog.

* I geek out about science fiction, and have three SF-themed blogs, including a video podcast I co-host with my husband who geeks in much the same way I do (he's awesome!). Not to mention all the SF I write on the side.

* I geek out about writing, publishing, and marketing books and have been participating and studying these activities since I was a child.

And that only scratches the surface of my geekiness.

Today is Embrace Your Geekness Day! I would ***LOVE*** to learn how you geek, too.

Learn the real scoop on writer’s block

Writer’s block is bad enough without all the naysayers that try to shame you into believing it’s all in your head. I’ve been reading a lot of articles about writer's block to research something I'm developing, and when the articles aren’t trying to convince you it doesn’t exist, they’re pretty much telling you to just keep writing anyway.

One post I read started off stating that writer’s block didn’t exist, and then the whole article was about a specific cause of writer’s block. I don’t even think the author knew he was contradicting himself!

Only a few days away

The excitement is building as Tuesday, May 18 gets closer.

What happens on Tuesday, May 18, you ask?

*shock, gasp*

My latest book, Home Sweet Home Page, 2n Edition comes out. And this is an upgrade from the first book. Not only have I updated the content, but I've also added additional content AND developed a full-blown membership site, which I call the Readers' Club, with more that $350 worth in videos, checklists, cheat sheets, workbooks, and more so that you will be successful in increasing your website conversions.

I just finished putting the final pieces in place yesterday and I feel really good about what I've created for my readers.

The only thing I regret is that because I was so ambitious -- and because I had an unexpected health problem to deal with this year -- I've been unable to develop a launch day bonus. So, if you don't take me up on the pre-order bonus ...

...well, that's on you. You'll just have to make do with the Readers' Club. LOL.
