Vending in 2024: A Year in Review

What a year it has been! 2024 has seen significant progress in my growth as an author, but also as a promoter of my work. Perhaps the most significant marker of this was just how many events I attended with a vendor booth of my very own around the country! Now, I have reviewed every one of these events individually in detail already. So, here I will simply give a brief summary of each in order of occurrence, followed by a chart on which I calculate which events were the best (and worst) for me as a bookseller using a 1-10 scale (1 being best; 10 worst). Hopefully this will be of help to those of you who may be considering hitting the live circuit to promote your work to decide which kinds of venues could be most promising for book sales.Continue reading “Vending in 2024: A Year in Review”

Holiday Vibes at a Christmas Bazaar

This past weekend, I attended my last live appearance of the year at St. John LaLande’s annual Christmas Bazaar in Blue Springs, Missouri. It took place in the school gymnasium, and was definitely one of the cozier events I’ve been to this year. But was it worthwhile?Continue reading “Holiday Vibes at a Christmas Bazaar”

!!! Book Release: ‘Knights of Aralia Book III’ !!!

This morning I am thrilled to announce the official release of the next book in my latest series: Knights of Aralia Book III: The Return of Hope! For those of you who have pre-ordered already, my sincerest thanks, and I truly hope you enjoy the continuation of this epic series as much as I enjoyed writing it. For those who have not but want to know more, go take a look at its page here.

Plans for December

November was one pretty amazing month for me from start to finish! Not only did I have a lovely time at the Indoor Holiday Market in Leavenworth, but my next Knights of Aralia book went on pre-order, I signed up for one more live event in December, and made great strides in other future projects.

Here at the start of December, I am in a pretty good position to wrap up a most eventful year in very neat fashion. There’s still a lot to be done, beginning with the launch of Knights of Aralia Book III on the 6th, followed by my final live appearance of the year at the Christmas Bazaar in Blue Springs, MO on the 7th and 8th (come see me if you can!). Some more progress on certain drafts (including finishing up Knights of Aralia Book IIII and Sauragia 3) are in the works as well, and the cherry on top would be if I could finally finish up a long-outstanding translation project. Either way, I am determined to clear the deck this December, and thereby allow myself to start with a clean slate in 2025!

Also, don’t miss tomorrow’s Cyber Monday Sale: just 99¢ (or equivalent) for all e-books!

Guest Post: Literary Corners: Designing a Functional Home Office in Limited Quarters

This week, I once more welcome back guest-poster Christopher Haymon of Adulting Digest. Many of us writers have very small areas designated specifically for our writing use, assuming we have any at all. In this post, Mr. Haymon will discuss how to get the maximum use out of the minimal space we so often have to work with.Continue reading “Guest Post: Literary Corners: Designing a Functional Home Office in Limited Quarters”
