Well done Elina.

And many thanks to Carole, such a busy lady, for sharing Gary's letter and that great picture with a stack of books almost reaching to Heaven!

Congratulations, Kimberly. My most recent book also deals with domestic violence and abuse (but in the context of fiction.) I hope your book does well, too. Good for you.

I clapped for you, Amy, cheer up!

[Anna]

Alex, I can't share because I don't belong to FB and Twit or anything else really, so sorry.

If there was a 'like' button here, I'd press it!

[Erica]

You have some of the best covers, Alex!

[Erica]

CONGRATS, Elina!!! That is a big and exciting step.

Alex wrote: "Hi, everyone, I'm doing a cover reveal today as I have just received the files for my new book and would really appreciate any shares you can spare the time for https://alexrcarver.wordpress.com/..."

Shared on my FB author page. Great cover! If I beg for an el cheapo ebook review copy, would you give me one? In return, I'll post a review here, on Amazon, and on my blog alongside an author interview with you.

[Dale]

Alex wrote: "Thanks for the share, Dale, I can provide a copy for review, let me know where you'd like me to send it and your preferred format. In all honesty I must say that though you don't need to have read the previous books in the series to enjoy this one, the events of previous books are mentioned (I don't know if you have read the other books) ."

I'll send you my email address via private message. I haven't read the other books yet, but I don't mind mentions of the previous ones so long as the current story doesn't depend too much on them. If it does, I can always start with the first book instead. Thanks!

[Carmel]

Very nice, Alex!

[Erica]

I can't get over how much I love your Inspector Stone covers. They compliment each other perfectly.

THANK YOU! Kind of overwhelming and terrifying at the same time! :D :D

[Amy]

Clapped that.

[Dale]

The epub and mobi editions of Ice on the Bay are finished, and the interior proof is ready to send to the printer. Just have to add a barcode to the cover and we'll be ready for production. Deadlines met!

Booyah!

[Erica]

Way to go, Dale!

[Dale]

Thank you everyone! It's been a long haul with this book, but I think the results justify it.

Now if we could just get out of this hospital and back home again...

[Chrys]

I've just put the fifth book of my urban fantasy 'Penny White' up on pre-order. I still can't believe that I've written five books in a series. And four more to go! Keeping good character notes is proving essential.

Congratulations, and I truly hope you get your wish to go home!

[Chrys]

I hardly have time to read either!

[Amy]

Well done Chrys and everyone I've missed.

I wrote this for no good reason:

Those who can, please clap. Thanks.

[Amy]

Never mind. When you can. So far I’m earning my subs back each month. It’s the only part of my writing career I’m making a profit on!

[Amy]

Finding things to write about is an issue. And my Medium earnings are nowhere near what they say the average pay out is. That made me laugh. I also don’t know how people command $800 for their first post. I’ve earnt enough to pay half my annual subs!

That's a good start, Amy.

Good for you, Chrys!

[Amy]

The average was $76.52. The most earnt by an author was $11k lol.

[Dale]

They're going to release Kathleen this afternoon. Hooray!

[Amy]

That was per month. How can someone earn $11k a month? I’m way off the $76 average.

[Amy]

That’s great news, Dale.

[Amy]

I think the income is generated by claps from paying members only. Although any claps are appreciated because it shows someone took the time to respond.
