Books

I've been posting a lot of my books I've read to my blog and need to post them here as well. Never enough time. I looked at my reading list; I don't think I'll ever finish "Tender is the Night." I'd like to, but goodness, it makes me tired.

Hello

Hello, I'm the blast from the past and need to be on Goodreads more often. Marketing books is hard, especially for me, still treading water in the sea of blogs and social media. I've been working on my new blog http://www.shevata-cccole.blogspot.com.

My second book, "Children of Discord" is now out in kindle and paperback, so far with good response. Shevata continues to make her enemies pay dearly for their transgressions, and in this novella, she punishes herself as well.

I'm now opening up to review more books, preferably short stories and novellas, because of time and my day job.

I've also begun a series off essays about my experience as a new Indie author. I'll post some links; this has been an unexpected part of my writing journey that I've enjoyed very much.

It's great to see the smart people on this site and I will try to do better about checking in.

Children of Discord

My 2nd book, sequel to "Act of Redemption" is now being sent for final approval in Print form. It seems like this took forever, but in the big scheme of things, CreateSpace moved pretty fast. I'm still on your book, Maureen!! Getting there!!

Book completion

As a new novelist, the completion of a novel is a great stress-relief, after editing, re-editing, then waiting to read what other people said you actually wrote!!

But, as one writer said, "If I can talk you out of being a writer, then you're not a writer."

No one's talked me out of it, and I don't think they can!!

Rock on, fellow writers!!

Radio Interview

I did a radio interview on the Dottie Coffman Show this morning on "Act of Redemption." I'm never sure if these radio interviews sell books, but at least we get the domestic awareness discussed. If that helps at least one person, to me it's worth it!!

Second Book of the Gastar Series

I just heard from the editor regarding the sequel of "Act of Redemption", entitled "Children of Discord." Of course, it needs work, but she said it moves fast and is very entertaining. For a Dark Fantasy writer, that's great news for me. I hope to get it ready asap and post it to Goodreads. This has been a fun group!

attempting download of ebook

I'm trying to get part of "Act of Redemption" downloaded in the epub format for goodreads. So far, I'm having no luck whatsoever! I registered for that ebook site, so far, it gives a nice list that goodreads accepts their versions, but no method to make my PDF compatible.

Any advice here? I'm no computer expert, but I've been clicking and downloading and asking nicely all afternoon.

Thanks everyone!!
