2019: My year in books

2019 was my first year of jumping into the indie publishing world. This also meant doing A LOT of market research. I've learned SO MUCH about the indie book world, it's amazing. It seriously feels like an entirely separate universe for books. The readers are different, their tastes and speeds and priorities are entirely different than traditional readers...

Inspiration Tuesday: True Value

A Pitch Wars Mentor's Real Reward

Someone once asked me about being a Pitch Wars Mentor, "But what do you get out of it?" Pitch Wars is a contest for authors seeking representation (a massive step towards becoming traditionally published.)

To All The Houses I Loved Before

This year, my husband and I decided to finally make the jump and buy a new and nicer house, closer to where he works. Right now he’s driving an hour to work, 5 days a week. Wowzer! Cutting that drive down to 15-30 minutes was going to make a huge difference! What we didn’t anticipate was that, apparently,  we...
