I published my first book, “These Things You Pass On”!
I still can’t believe I did it, and am even more surprised at how many sold, just in the first day. I knew my friends and family would support me of course, but wow! My book really is out there in Amazon-land, a vast, unchartered territory. Yikes!
I got caught with my pants down as far as having my website ready… It’s not referenced anywhere until the info pages at the end of the book, so I thought I could finish it up at a somewhat leisurely pace. I didn’t anticipate people googling my name when the listing showed up on Amazon. …Oops!
The first of many oops to come as a new author, I’m sure. New author, …still kind of freaked out about that one!
If you were one of those people who pinged my not yet live website, Sorry!! I’ve been working like a banshee, trying to get it up and going. Hang in there, I will eventually catch on. In the past month I’ve had to learn five new software programs, and how to do a website from scratch. The learning curve is a bit overwhelming, but I’ll get a handle on it eventually.
I’d like to sit back and rest, but it’s not going to happen. The TONS of book ideas I had while writing my first book, are each in varying stages of completion. Some are still in outline form only, while others are complete and in the editing stage. Most fall somewhere in between the two extremes.
I’m anxious to get them out. As much hard work as this is, it’s also been fun! This whole experience has been quite the adventure. I hope you find my work worthy of your time, and stick with me as I find my footing.
Now, how exactly do I get this posted……?
I expect, that due to your apparent passion to the craft, that the products will certainly be worth the read!
Best of success!
