December

My December was busy mostly with family stuff, and doctor appointments. I have gotten some writing done and then it was Christmas. Let's start with family stuff, I spent time baking cookies with my son and Husband. I also spent alot of time talking to my youngest on the phone They had to work on campus during winter break. The shopping for gifts and wrapping them took alot of my time. I had to make sure i got my youngest's gifts to them before the campus closed for Christmas. Now the doctor appointments, I had a couple of allgeric reactions oi had to go get meds for. In between the visits to the urgent care I saw an allergist, he ran a bunch of tests, they were all normal or the same as they were in october. So I am still unsure what is going on, don't worry I feel ok just wish I knew what was happening. Christmas was ok, it started Christmas eve at my mother inlaw's. Most of my inlaws where there and we had a yummy dinner and opened gifts. During the gifts my youngest video called to take part of the event. We all got some nice gifts, Christmas day was just hubby and my son. after we opened gifts we went and had lunch with my mother inlaw so she was by herself on Christmas. The writing was not very much because of life, I am hoping to get back into my writing again. since we don't have alot we do in Janurary. Other than get ready for Flirty in KC MO in Feb. I did find out that Amazon has done a couple things that has made me pull my ebooks from KU and thinking about pulling them from Kindle altogether. i have made it possible to get my books through libraries.once my ebooks are no longer in KU they will be put in other places to get them. I hope you all have a great New Year. Happy reading Happy writing

May and June

May was uneventful I spent all of may and most of June getting ready to go to Getting Witchy With it in New Orleans. I will get in more detail about the event in a moment, I want to give you all some idea of what it took for me to get ready. First let me say we had already had our room resereved last year for the end of June. I spent my time making button/pins,magnets and I had to order some book marks and busness cards. I had to make sure we had everything we would need for the event and the 4 days we would be gone. I made sure our son knew how to take care of my birds and that he had food to eat while we where gone. We left early Friday June 27th it was a 10 hour drive, we got to the hotel early that evening. we rested most of the evening /night then hung out with some fellow authors who also were selling books at Getting Witchy with It. that Saturday June 28th my husband and i went to sign in and support authors who would not be there Sunday. We spend a few hours there, we ...

January

 January was a very long month, it seemed to take forever. I did get stuff done last month. I am sorry I didn’t make this post sooner. I was working on getting everything done and together for the event I took part in on February 8th. I will go into it in the February newsletter/ blog.   I took part in a weekly writing prompt from hold my pen promptcast. Julie Defisher started last year. I have added to the list of wips I need to work on. I wrote on a few wips I need to get done.i am trying to get a backlog of manuscripts at different stages of the editing, formatting, and publishing stages. Mainly so I don’t feel rushed to finish the books I am writing.   I made more buttons/pins for February 8th, and I ordered author copies at the beginning of January. I was told they would be here January 24th. Then it was moved to the 6th of February, after like 5 chat conversations I got them on the 7th of February. That was last Friday and the day before my event, and we’r...

July

July was one of the months I didn't have an event where I did a book signing. But it was still busy, I edited book 4 of my Ann Smith serises. Before I gave it to my beta reader who is really good with all the english stuff I am not very good with. I did some writing done on more than one story. I also took part in the weekly prompt from the Hold my pen promptcast. Lets talk about the editing process. For me its self editing to catch as must as I can. I self edit at least four times before I give it to anyone else. My beta reader is my mother in law to be honest. She loves all the things that deal with english, which is helpful to me. I am dyslexic, so I am not great with spelling and grammar. She goes over and reads my stories ensuring everything looks good. She is a huge help to me. My muse has been a busy bee and has me working on a few stories I have written at least a few pages on. I also have written on a few new story ideas, the only thing I haven't worked on was...
