The process of editing, cover-design, and publishing, whether indie or traditional, all takes time and it takes time to build a following.

“Don’t let the fear of what could happen to you keep you from letting anything happen to you.”
Jennie Marts, What To Do About Wednesday

“Don’t let the fear of what could happen to you keep you from letting anything happen to you. Fear is something you meet and then walk through. You have to face it to get to the other side. And fear is temporary, but regret lasts forever.”
Jennie Marts, What To Do About Wednesday

“We are only afraid of what we don’t understand.”
Jennie Marts, A Halloween Hookup

Beth Hi Jennie,
Thanks for befriending me here as well as in real life! I hope you will put my books, A Real Basket Case, To Hell in a Handbasket, Deadly Currents, and Wicked Eddies, on your to-read or read lists. I also just started free book contest in my group: Q&A with Beth Groundwater (http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1...), so feel free to join that group and enter the contest by posting a review on one of my books.
- Beth
