Mundane Life Tasks
When we last left Betsy, she had just published the digital version of her newest book on all platforms and was working diligently on the print version. But publishing, as you might expect, sucks up a lot of time. What about all of the other little things you have to do in life? What about […]

The Third Time Around
Hello, friends! As I indicated in the last blog post, I did indeed learn many valuable lessons while publishing my latest book, Believing It. So many valuable lessons, in fact, that I wanted to write about them before I forgot what they were (I’m dottery and middle-aged, you know). You may consider this post to […]

Panic, Planning, and Publishing

Tiny Steps
Hello, my friends! I thought I would talk a little bit about productivity today. My productivity, to be precise (although I hope you can relate). Productivity has been kind of a movable feast here at the Palatial Horvath Estate until recently. I managed to plot out my next book and, after some stops and starts, started writing […]

The Next Generation
Previously on Betsy’s blog – Betsy, as you may know, is on a Quest to become a successful independent author. Harry, as you may also know, is her Guide on this Quest. He is a white gerbil with hopes of one day upgrading to a more traditional Quest Guide form. Maybe a white rabbit, or […]

Everything Changes
Nothing is certain. Nothing is forever. Nothing is written in stone. You think you’ve got it under control, so you let things coast along a little bit. Nothing wrong with that. You have the right to watch some damned television, don’t you? You have the right to play a freaking video game if you want […]

Start Again
Uh oh. We haven’t heard from Betsy in quite a while. That can’t be good. What in the world has been going on with her? Has she fallen down a rabbit hole again? Let’s see…. *Betsy sits alone in an empty room* *A Dark Voice echoes against the walls* Food…spend…eat…you know you want to… No. […]
