Holiday Works Are In The Works

 I have a half dozen, if not more short stories coming out next month. Thanksgiving stories and Christmas stories. I will be posting trailers, my social media pages (not many, just two). I am taking a Coursera writing course now-if I haven't mentioned it-and other writing courses outside of  Coursera. So I have a lot going on. A WHOLE LOT going on, that I will not even mention right now until I know more, there is a lot on my plate right now.

News, Updates and So On...

 I know! I have been away for a very long time. I have been laid-off, on unemployment, now it's over, so now, after twenty-six years, I am on my own. Jobless, looking for a remote job, and I am learning new things. Things which I will be sharing in the coming weeks. I have been and still am taking courses. Attending webinars. This week I will be launching a Pinterest business page. 

It is past midnight now, and it seems all I am is busy, busy, busy! I will be back this week to let you know what am I up to, but until then, Goodnight!

I Am Very Much Determined....

I hope all of you, your familes and friends are safe and healthy during this strange time.  I live with my mom and sister and we are all okay.... BUT  the  day job I had for years is now gone. I was working at home  for two weeks and two days, in March, then I was called and told I had zero hours.

Now, I have always wanted to quit my day job. I have a college degree from Syracuse University, and have been accepting a low salary for years ( under $10K) because I could find nothing better. I had watched several employees-some just new hires,  get promotions in a few months time, while I who had tried many times got nothing. I won't go through all I had experienced there, that is not the point I want to make here today.

I had no way of getting anything better in my city, so along comes COVID-19 and now I am at home. Am I going stir crazy? No! I love being at home with my family, and now have the time to get all those  time consuming jobs and projects around the house and in the yard done. Most importantly,  I have the time to make the life of my dreams come true....to be a successfully published writer. I have sold ebooks,  yes, but not successfully. So now I have all the time in the world, and I am going to focus on one thing at a time, and get the job done!

While I wait for my first unemployment payment (you can guess how crazy that is..*eye roll*) I will be focusing on becomiing better and marketing my books.. I am so bad on keeping up with this blog but, I will post at least once a month to keep you posted.

Take care,  Stay home as much as you can and remember to wash your hands.

NEW Blog Post

People, I am so bad with keeping up with this blog! I promise that in 2020 I will post at LEAST once a month. Life is happening, so I am not writing as much as I should, but I will be publishing new books from now to the end of the year.

Trying something new, so stay please stay tuned!

News and Things

Sorry I have not written in a very long time. Selling ebooks is not as easy as a lot of people write about. I sell a few books and ebooks here and there, but nothing life chaniging YET. I am still working on it, and when I have succeeded will definitely write case studies here. So check in at least once a month, and I PROMISE I will post updates to what I am doing.

The Good, The Bad, And The....Well, You Know

Okay! Unfortunately getting into the Apex Authors was no go. A friend showed tried to help me get some people to sign up. ($1. trial. That's all) Only a few people looked, but didn't sign up. I guess everyone is making major book sales then since they didn't need them, right? I did need them, but since I couldn't stay a member because of no sign ups, I had to move on.

What I need is something that will sell that will take a day to do, or fun to create. In other words, short and Easy. SO...I have done 12 books that was hardly any work to put together, but now I have to start promoting, because no one will know they are there unless they accidentally happen to see it.
Part two, which I am starting this week, is to work on the 'fun' books and then I will have to start promoting them. The whole purpose of doing said books is to generate an income that comes in easily to give me oceans of time to work on my novels.

 In the meantime, I have an Editor working on an old book, and I am working on new fiction books to publish to Kindle and later on, CreateSpace, etc. I am getting to the point that I need a change. Tired of the dayjob, want to wake up every morning and do what I want to do so I am actively pursuing what I have to do to get what I want in 2016.

What are these books that are fun and easy to publish? I will tell you(yes, I promise I will get back to you before next year, LoL.)I have promised a case study, so I will be publishing as each project is completed.
