Have You Filled Out Your Goodreads Profile

A Very Helpful Marketing tool for authors is to take advantage of FREE author profiles on the various readers websites that you come across. One of the oldest is Goodreads. If you haven't claimed your author account with them then you really should. It only takes a few minutes to add your current author picture, add your website information, connect your blog to the account and even upload a book trailer or two to your linked books. They even allowed me to create an author profile with just one book on Kindle Vella.

Then all you really need to do is follow some readers, other authors and once a month or so go online, write a couple of book reviews and perhaps a answer a couple of questions in the Authors Q&A section. It is a great way to connect with readers of your genre! I hope you will Like, Share, Subscribe to my own author profile as well as some of my book reviews. 

I will be working on adding more in the future. in the meantime:

Enjoying the Chapter Videos

One of the hardest things for a writer is to constantly put things out there and not get any feedback. Yes, we have beta readers, ARC readers and pay for editors but I am doing this series as a labor of love and cannot really afford all that. If you have been reading my posts and watching my videos I hope you will take a few minutes out of your day and answer the Poll below. Don't be afraid to share this post with your friends and fellow readers! 

 

 

 

Update on the Prequel

With everything happening during the holidays and me taking a tumble and breaking some bones in my arm and shoulder, updates on this website are a little behind. Also, I did not do as well as I had hoped on the prequel, dastardly deeds at the Dearborn theater, However I did pretty good I think. Of my 50,000-word goal I reached up to 36,000 words. And this story is not really hitting the novella slash prequel vibes. It is a full-blown story that will be available on Kindle Vella as soon as I get a little further into the story. It will introduce the two main characters Janie and Diane and how they got started on their train riding adventures. Stay tuned For more information.
