This is from Jackie Ashenden’s tweet that’s 100% spot on. This is exactly what I needed today after almost giving up on my holiday story again last night. I especially love the one about failure being not just a possibility, but a certainty. Been thinking about this publishing business of late and have decided toContinue reading “How to Survive in Publishing”

Perfection
Today, while going through one of my old books looking for a quote that I had the word “perfect” in it, I realized that I used the word in this particular book so much. In fact, I lost count how often I did. Whether it had to do with the occasion, the setting, the loveContinue reading “Perfection”
#AmWriting, Yes I Am
Somewhere on this blog is a private page that has 32 covers I’ve purchased hoarded since I began publishing—and that number doesn’t include the covers I’ve made. Yes, you read it right. Thirty-two covers. And I can’t show any of them off because I have to write their stories first. But I will show youContinue reading “#AmWriting, Yes I Am”
Being a Writer
This pretty much sums up my day 99% of the time.
I’ve Been Featured!
NAN: How do you keep sane as a writer? LIZ: My family keeps me sane and grounded. They remind me I’m not that awesome writer I think I am. I still have to do the laundry and fold the clothes and put them away. I still have to do the dishes. Source: Nan Reinhardt, AuthorContinue reading “I’ve Been Featured!”
Time to Write
I can’t believe January is over and now it’s really time for me to get to work. So this morning, I wrote the first 900 words of the next book with more words to come later today. My goal is to finish this book in the next 28 days and then get it published beforeContinue reading “Time to Write”
So You Want to Write (and Publish) Erotica…
So I’ve been publishing Naughty Pen’s stories now since July 2017 and so far, these are the lessons I’ve learned so far (these are just the things that apply to me so YMMV). I’m going to list the things I’ve learned below but you’ll need to click on Page 2 at the bottom of thisContinue reading “So You Want to Write (and Publish) Erotica…”
My January Newsletter
What an imaginative title for a post! But I ran out of good titles before coffee so it will have to do. Anyway, each month I send out a newsletter to my subscribers and while that email is queued to go out early tomorrow morning, you get to see my recommendations and giveaways here first!Continue reading “My January Newsletter”
Happy Book Birthday, Billie and Heath!
Two years ago this month, I published my third book about the unexpected adventures of an introverted shopkeeper and an arrogant CEO struggling to maintain control of the family company. While it was still being serialized on Wattpad, it attracted the attention of RT Book Reviews who described it as a “mistaken identity story thatContinue reading “Happy Book Birthday, Billie and Heath!”
It’s my Indie Pub-Anniversary!
Three years ago today, I clicked Publish on my first book, Finding Sam. Oh, wait, it was yesterday. But never mind that little faux pas. I’d intended to publish my first book on my oldest son’s birthday which is the 17th and I thought that it would take Amazon 24 to 48 hours to haveContinue reading “It’s my Indie Pub-Anniversary!”
