November recap

   November was an OK month for me, no book sells but had time with family and friends. The start of the month mostly consisted with getting some corrections from one beta reader. Which was very helpful, and minimal suggestion from another beta reader who didn’t seem to really want to help me. So I have been trying  to get everything else done so I can publish book 3, I am still hoping for the end of the month but it’s looking like it might be the beginning of the new year.

   The middle of the month I was still working on the corrections but took a small break and was the photographer at a friend’s wedding. I took some time and edited photos for her so she had some really nice pictures. I also did a bunch of promotional stuff for all the books I have out plus the one I am trying to get published.

    The end of the month was of course Thanksgiving and spent the day spending time with family and trying to enjoy their company. I finished up the corrections and made a few changes that I knew needed to be made. I started working on book 4 again, I have been transcribing everything I wrote on paper into the document on my computer. 

   The last week we heard our friend lost her mom, so I have been checking in on her from time to time. Basically letting her know we understand and are here for her if she needs us. I am still working on promoting, and writing but not as much as I know I should be but I feel for my friend and finding it hard to concentrate on my work.

    Now the beginning of December is going alright, I saw a dr. for my hearing, they want to do some imaging of my ears, I am getting blood work done, and going to get an allergy test done. So I might get some answers about my health. 

I need to get some work done, I hope you all are having a great day.

Happy reading 

Happy writing

It is about mid July

 I sorry about the last blog post being posted late I have no idea what happened but its posted now.           Now to get on with this post. So far this month is going OK. We had a celebration on the 4th of July, we had a BBQ at my mother in law's. I got some writing done while I was there visiting with my family. It was a good day, the only thing that could have made it better was if my youngest was able to be there, but due to school and work they could not make it. Which I completely understand but I do miss them.          I have gotten more writing done and transcribed to my computer. I am still researching how long A Pooka story {the older kid book I am writing} needs to be. I do have a couple artists I am going to be working with to get the covers and some bookmark art. I am hoping to have it out in a year or so.          I am also going to try and get the book I am rereleasing by October-ish if not then by the end of the year. I just really need to get the cover done and a b

June has been a bit busy

   I know June is not over yet but the rest of the month should be calmer(I hope). so lets get into what has kept me busy, well the month started OK it was the normal amount of chaos for my life. I had been writing and promoting my books and the event I did on the 17th. then I was dealing with friend issues (its all taken care of, no worries).  My hubby took the first week off  and I didn't get much writing done, but I got to spend time with my hubby.      I had to order more books, pencils and business cards, they all came the first week or two of  the month. Then my son's 21st birthday happened which was just simple and he wanted cupcakes. I made him cupcakes, and we took him out to eat. The rest of that week was spent getting over a cold and getting everything together for the vendor event. the event went OK, I sold six books which I think was OK I enjoyed the event.       I am working on getting back to writing, and promoting. but I have also been thinking about putting the

Editor(my opinions on getting one)

 I thought I would give my opinion on how to get an editor and what you should look out for. Now this is based on my opinion but I think it might be helpful. Now having your books edited can be expensive but it doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. But it should not be too cheap either, do you research.   Now when you have an editor, you should be able to contact them and they get back to you in a reasonable amount of time. Now a reasonable amount of time could very, if you contact them at the end of business day you may not hear back until the next business. That could be one day or three days, it all depends on your editor. They are people too, they do have lifes outside of work.   Now then there is if they are professional, if they are friendly that is fine, and they can say how they help others clients.But if they bad mouth their other clients to you that’s not a good sign. Mainly if they tell you about other clients they are talking about you to the other clients. So that is some
