Goodreads asked Ray Blasing:

What are you currently working on?

Ray Blasing At the moment, I’m focused on two major efforts. First, I’m continuing to expand reader visibility and engagement for my two self-published career-guidance books, General Career Intelligence and Advanced Career Intelligence. As any indie author will tell you, writing the book is only half the climb—getting people to discover it is the steeper, far more mysterious ascent. Navigating algorithms, ad thresholds, and the “attention economy” on a shoestring budget can feel like trying to steer a kayak upstream with a teaspoon. I often wish that readers who sincerely enjoy my work—and I hear from many—knew just how profoundly their simple actions matter: a rating, a review, a quick social share, even a sentence of feedback. These tiny gestures are the fuel that gives a book life in the algorithmic ecosystem.

Second, I’m actively writing a series of Substack articles that dig into America’s current turbulence. My goal is to mine for truth, to separate signal from noise, and to add thoughtful analysis to discussions that are too often dominated by sound bites, falsehoods, or deliberately weaponized narratives. In many ways, this continues the spirit of my books—calling readers back to foundational thinking, ethical grounding, and the willingness to challenge easy assumptions.

So that’s where my energy is going: amplifying my books so they reach the people they’re meant to help, and contributing meaningfully to the broader conversation on the direction of our country—one carefully considered paragraph at a time.
