I'll get right on that. (Insert emoticon in hysterics here lol)

It has been sent. Thank you very much Kay. I need all the help I can get.

Already gotcha Kay, I'll send you things...

I have a blog post available to anyone who would like it. It explains what Radish Fiction is, how it works and of course plugs my latest murder mystery book Missing Remnants. (There's no erotica in the book, but it does contain swearing. The post can go anywhere.)

Done

Oh Kimberly you poor thing. Have you made any plans for promotion online?

Currently running with this blurb, just because:

Track is the best detective the Si-Cross 4 station has. He has been forced to take three months off, just as a woman dies at his front door after asking for his help. Suspecting an outbreak, the Authority submits Track to a gruelling decontamination process, while someone ransacks his apartment and dismantles his pet robot dog, Banyon. With little help available to him, Track undertakes the investigation the Authority closes within hours. He’s being followed. He has no backup. His trusted colleagues are avoiding him. Someone is pretending to be his dead husband. Will Track survive to solve the mystery of the Missing Remnants?

I'm working on it lol

Well that's allowed. I wish I could say don't worry. But we all know how pointless that phrase is.

Actually I lied, I haven't sold anything on Amazon in weeks, but I'm racking up a whole 3 Radish coins a week. Yay :D

Ah, well done Ted. There's mine:

Alex, you sell. I haven't had a sale in weeks. My entire writing career is hinged on Carole reading Missing Remnants on Radish!

Hmmmm, mine just turned up. Not much of an idea what it said and I was too lazy to translate it, I clicked some things. I've probably ordered something random.

Right, done them. What's next? I only have one entity published so claiming mine in Japan was easy.

I still don't know why I got a royalty announcement yesterday saying that I'm getting something from Japan, my reports say zilch.

Oooh good, she says I can use English. (That'll go down well in some places!)

Ted, it's taken me a year to get around to doing the US one, the others require Google translate and will do doubt have me with submitting an even weirder bio! :)

Well how utterly stoooopid is that?

Done

I'm confused. It doesn't take much. I've finally created an Author Central page on Amazon US. I've added my ridiculous bio and my scary photo and I've attempted to link my Blogger rss feed thingy to the US Author Central. Fine. So why can't I find the same option for linking my blog to the UK Author Central? Anyone know? It just appears to be absent from my options. Boooooo.

Alex wrote: "Great idea. I've seen Marie's Davenport Book and series from time to time through askdavid's tweets, and I saw Amy's Missing Remnants on the Radish Fiction twitter timeline."

I was surprised when they retweeted. Glad someone saw it lol!

The trouble with Facebook is, I believe, the more you post, the more their algorithm flags you as spam. At least that's what I read earlier in the year. I feel Twitter gets lost in all the other tweets, but I do it anyway.

Yep. Given more time available I'd be further ahead than I am. Same as you, day job, kids, then all the writing stuff. We muddle through as best we can.
