Tough Times in the Publishing Industry

We live in unsettling times, not just because of the pandemic and climate change devastation, although they certainly play key roles. Lately, much has been written about the uncertainty and new challenges facing the publishing industry. By publishing industry, I mean indie and traditionally published authors, publishing houses of all sizes, distributors, and […]

How Do You Feel About Black Friday?

As many of you know, I do a fair number of discounted book promotion events throughout the year. It’s part of a two-year long experiment to figure out if they’re worthwhile for me, especially since I don’t use Facebook, BookBub, or Amazon ads, as of yet. As the year draws to a close, it seems … Continue reading "How Do You Feel About Black Friday?" […]

Horrific Weather and Writing Events Reminder

Once again, here in British Columbia we’ve been hit with devastating weather events, only instead of forest fires and extraordinary heat, it’s an atmospheric river resulting in massive flooding. I’m safe and dry where I am, as are most of my friends and colleagues in the interior. A few, however, live in danger zones, and … Continue reading "Horrific We […]

Fun Events Coming Up!

Last month, I was deciding what, if any, marketing I’d do for the rest of 2021. But I found myself invited to a couple of events and wound up signing up for others. This week’s focus is on two of them. First up is a BookFunnel promotion offering free crime fiction, many of them cozies, … Continue reading "Fun Events Coming Up!"

How Writers Open My Eyes to the World

I’ve been a facilitator for creative writing workshops, offered by my local community center, for a decade.

What I’ve learned over the past decade is that … Continue reading "How Write […]

Clearing Out Information Overload

The other night, I was browsing through one of my bookmarked file folders on publishing and marketing. It was a shock to find nearly 200 articles going back to 2013 and I wound up deleting plenty. Some links no longer worked. Some of the information had been saved more than once at different time periods, … Continue reading "Clearing Out Information Ove […]

The I-Think-I-Can Approach

A story starts with an idea, like a flower starts with a seed. It’s planted. It germinates. As with a book or the sunflower that just bloomed in my garden four days ago, it can take a while. Weeks. Months. Even years. The process is often unpredictable. But one day, something starts to happen. Something … Continue reading "The I-Think-I-Can Approach […]

It’s World Rhino Day!

When I wrote about World Elephant Day a few weeks ago, I also wondered when world Rhino Day would appear. My blogging friend, Jane Fritz, who writes incredibly interesting blogs, by the way, kindly looked it up for me. Thank you, Jane! So, September 22nd is World Rhino Day! These large animals are among my … Continue reading "It’s World Rhino Day!" […]
