Sweet,simple and to the point. I enjoy reading, writing and politics. Strange combination you say, yeah. But it works for me. Doing the self-publishing thing at the moment and learning so much from those who have been in the industry for a while. Thanks to all of you that is sharing your knowlege and expreinces with others. It is so appreciated. Seems like I'm spending more time trying to market the novels than wirting and I truly miss that. But as someone once told me, no one can sell you like you --so get your a-- moving. And I did and the sells took off. We are about to do the second printing of Once You've Touched The Heart (just think six months ago I had no idea what a print run was & I still may be using the phrase incorrectly) any hooo, I'm very excited about that. The next novel The Heart of Him is being edited as we speak and will be released in Sept (we hope). Oh way, that's up to me, I'm running things. That's the upside to self-publishing. The downside is selecting a printer, an editor, page designer, cover designer, distributor - let's see what else - oh yeah - PUBLICITY - PUBLICITY -PUBLICITY. Does it sound like I'm losing my mind? Sometimes I feel like I am, but then I start writing and remember why I began this journey at this stage in my life -- it's my passion. Any one that writes romance knows passion cannot be ignored. Okay I'll stop rambaling now. But before I go I want to thank a few people - Victoria Wells - thanks for sharing - LaConnie Taylor-Jones - thanks for the advice - Loretta Wells - thanks for coming out and supporting another sister from Richmond - Cyndi Rex for the encouraging words a few years ago (check these authors out when you get a moment)-- my family for putting up with missed meals, a dirty house and reduction in household funds (I'll make it back, promise) and God, for waking me up each day to do something I enjoy.Much Luv to each of you until the next time.Iris
