The year is going by so fast.

     I can’t believe how fast this year is going by. This has been a good year so far, I have been doing pretty go at all the events I have done so far. The event I did this past Saturday(sept. 9th)went OK, I sold 11 books. That is about what I have been selling at the vendor events. I am going to Archon 46 on Sept 29th - Oct. 1.

    So let’s start with the year  going by so fast, i have noticed over the last 5 or so the year has gone by faster and faster. I think it’s due to the fact my kids are no longer little kids, and I no longer need to do everything for them anymore. That thought makes me sad, but it’s a part of life i have to deal with.

    The event I just did was at the same place my last few vendor events happened. This was a bit slower than the other events were, but it was a really nice day and there were some other events happening. I still did pretty good and it felt it was really good since I made enough to cover the cost of the table and then some. I feel really good about Saturday :) 

    In a couple weeks i am going to Archon 46 (https://archonstl.org/) its a 3 day convention i go to just about every year. I am a panelist again this year as well as selling my books. It is a sci-fi convention that happens not too far from where I live, so there is no need for a hotel room. I usually sell a bit more there since it is a longer event. 

    That is my update so far this month.


Happy reading 

Happy writing

April so far

      April so far is going well; I have been getting some writing done. I also have been trying to do more to promote my books. I have also done one event so far this month (April 13th), I have another one this coming weekend (April 21st). I sold seven books at this last event two sets of all three books that are currently out, and one of the first book (New Life By The Full Moon).      I have been working on book four of the Ann Smith series which I believe is the last book of the series. I have also been working on rewriting my vampire book Nirvash, a vampire's tale. along with that book I am writing a companion book about Lovebug, the vampire kitten's life.       I have been doing the normal promoting stuff, like scheduling posts on my social medias. I have also started a reading group but it's not going well so far. But I am hopeful it will get better. I am looking into getting some other kinds of swag to possible help get the ...

This month is hard.

    I am having a rough month, the only event I had this month was on the 3rd. it did not go as planned, it was a slow event. No one really showed up to it, I did sell 2 books that day. I have been trying to write more, but it isn't going as well as I would like but I am getting words on paper so to speak. I am also dealing with some health issues; I will be OK I just need to get through this.         But I am still moving forward with my writing, scheduling events I am taking part of and promoting my books, events. I know this is not the most thrilling information, but this is my life. I write this blog to let people who want to do anything creative as more than a hobby that sometime life can effect what you are doing more than you could ever think possible. But I do not give up on my dreams. life can be a pain some time, but it doesn't mean you stop. I will get back to writing happy reading happy writing

May

  So far May is going well, my first event this month was on the 4th, it went well I sold 11 books and got to talk to interesting people. my next event is on May18th, it is taking place in Maryville IL. I am doing this event for the first time; I am hoping it is a good event for me.     I have been working on redoing my vampire book which was pulled from print years ago the title is still Nirvash, A Vampire's Tale. I finished up doing the self-edit and adding some details all on paper. I need transcribe it to the document on my laptop. I am going to try and get it out by the end of the year so i can possibly get Lovebug's life story out the following year.   I don't have a whole lot more to say at this time. I hope you all have a great day happy reading  happy writing
