Quick update:
It's December. In the Arms of the Enemy will be released in February. Finally. What a great feeling to see your baby in print. Somehow a miracle has been created here. I'm still not sure how.
So, now there's the matter of marketing. My publisher, www.lightswordpublishing.com shows their difference than other publishers, by their marketing strategies. They take the process from A-Z. That means marketing materials, flyers, bookmark gifts, business cards, sending out flyers, setting up book signings, not to mention working with book stores and distributors and working with some online sites for publicity. This is quite something. Every company needs something to distinguish them from the rest. This one shows something that is definitely author friendly.
Thank you Linda Daly and Lightswordpublishing.
I've got my first draft done of Water Lilies Over my Grave (retitled from The Heart is a Lonely Hunter) this is single title and a lot longer than Arms of the Enemy. I'm aiming at 100K. In this novel I'm delving into the mind of an obsessed sick mind. A woman travels halfway across the country to get away from her ex-husband, only to discover he's followed her.
Looking for the high concept of the piece we might consider the psycho in sleeping with the enemy is his own psychiatrist. We'll see how we can expand that.
Meanwhile, I have Bruce reading the first draft. the man is a master of the flashing red pen. So far he's used up one for each chapter. And, a get a bonus. He's a man. I get a man's point of view.
Today, as it's really, really dreadful out, I intend to read about obsession and serial killers. Fun, huh?
Did I mention I have a website? So much to get together. I must learn how to be my own webmistress. I'm hoping the website and the blog will be linked soon. I'm hoping my short stories can be posted on there. I'm hoping links to some of my favorite other websites can be posted.
Soon. I say. Soon. Hopefully, before everyone sees my new business cards that I'm so diligently creating.
So far, my favorite free clip art site is on the Microsoft site. I understand Print Shop has tons of clip art. Something to ask for, for Christmas.
Take care, from the Cottage of Blog. Where the coffee is always fresh (when we're open) and the blueberry muffins are straigh out of the oven.
Gotta go do some research.
