I've just written a short blog post, No way to end a story – http://nickwastnage.blogspot.com/ about the chaotic mental state I go through close to the end of writing a book. Hop over and have a look if you're interested.

Rinelle,
Jayne is right you shouldn't be nervous, this is a time to enjoy yourself. Good luck
For anyone interested, my blog is on http://www.jaynelockwood.com/diary/
It's a mixture of handy hints for indie authors, tongue in cheek observations and ... that's about it really. Oh, and a bit of book promotion, but no-one wants to hear all about that all the time, right? Although I'd love the opportunity to talk about my characters and their lives. Does anyone else feel like that or is it, job done, move on to the next one?
Erren wrote: "Nice website. I'm still trying to figure out WordPress and enable the "subscribe" feature!"Oh, I've tried that and just can't get it. Steve who helped with the website said it wasn't worth the trouble, especially as people can see my blog entry on Facebook, Twitter, and now Goodreads! SO I've saved myself time and money and just hope that people find me and are interested...

You need to download a widget to put a subscription option in your sidebar. I haven't bothered particularly (I figure people who like to subscribe to blogs through the feed know how to do it), but it should be relatively easy.
Looking for a chuckle? Here's a scene about a peculiar bartender from my work-in-progress Montana Rural. http://johnzunski.wordpress.com/2013/...

Someone pointed out the other day that they couldn't "follow" the blog that's on my website, as in get a notification every time there's a new post. On my site, you have to "subscribe." (or we just haven't figured it out! :)
I have a Blogspot, also, but it's really hard to keep up with both!

Hi All!My blog is http://debraamiller.blogspot.com/
I am a "blogger in training" very new to the world of "indie" authors & self-pubs so please bear with me.
Published my debut novel in Oct 2012 titled "Descended" book 1 of the "Fallen Guardian Saga." I could sure use some support from some "indie" friends here on Goodreads. I love connecting with other aspiring writers!
Cheers!

And other than that, I muse about whatever comes to mind related to life and writing. The most recent was a quick post about spring. Hope to see you there and out on the web!
