5.24.21 – tomorrow is the day

Tminus ONE DAY Tomorrow anyone can buy and read Faire’s Fair, a novel that I have spent so much time (and a decent amount of money) on along with talking ad nauseum about with some very tolerant friends. My hopes? That readers that aren’t my friends or...

5.15.21 Looking ahead

Tminus 10 days- Despite saying that I am looking ahead, don’t believe that I’m taking my eye off the Faire’s Fair ball. Think more like I’m one of those chameleons with the eyes rotate in different directions. Okay. That’s creepy....

5.11.21 Going wide

Wide you ask? So I’m NOT going to be putting Faire’s Fair into Kindle Unlimited right away. I’d like to see if I can actually get folks to buy my book- especially if I keep getting good reviews. (hint, if you are going to be reading it, please leave...

5.5.21 musing for friend

Tminus 20 days y’all! I am sending out requests to bloggers and bookstagrammers every day looking for folks to read and review Faire’s Fair. It seems like the acceptance rate is about 10%. But I’ve received a few yeses and I’m thankful for each...

4.27.21- a flurry of activity

Tminus 28 days till publishing! (hopefully that number will just go lower and won’t get reversed at some point) So over the past weekend, I completed the final pass through of Faire’s Fair, the final pass through of Ch 1 of Fair Play (bonus read at the end...

4.24.21 final edits

So much is keeping me busy! I’ve completed my final go-through of Faire’s Fair and I’m now updating it with all my last edits. My chapter 1 of Fair Play, Robert and Janet’s story, has come back the editor with good remarks and I’ve just...

4.9.21 back from editing

Be still my beating heart. Well… not still still… just not popping out of my chest. I received Faire’s Fair back from the editor. I read her overview with my fingers over my eyes and y’all… she LOVED it. Like loved it enough I’m...

4.3.21 Irons in the fire

Too many, or perhaps TWO many… I’m working on two projects somewhat simultaneously- which is always challenging! First, I have a prequel short story for the fans of Faire’s Fair that shows a pivotal moment several years before Faire’s Fair...

3.24.21- editors and editing, oh my!

I have decided to hire an editor to give Faire’s Fair the best chance possible. I’d hate for someone to like the story and then to give me a cruddy review because I spelled ‘roll’ as ‘role’ or bad punctuation etc. But even better...

3.22.2021 – moving right along

My book is still with my beta readers, about 1/3 have finished it. I’ve reached out to several editors and they are going to proof a section of my book and get back to me with both their edits and recommendations of what type of editing I need. Copy editing is...
