I've got two books now that have my name on it or in it someplace - Chicken Soup for the Soul of Mother's of Preschoolers and Tommy Starts Something Big. Soon I will have a print copy of Saving Redwind. The difference between the first two books and the last one is that Saving Redwind is all mine. I was very excited to get copies of the first two books, but I think I will be over the moon with the last one.
Now I have to be honest and say that I would be extremely ecstatic if Saving Redwind were being published by a traditional publisher. I guess I can't get over the dream of having a NY editor say, "We love this book! We want it for our list!" I'm still on submission with my agent for another story (and hopefully this new one that I'm working on by the end of summer!), but I'll never stop hoping for that call.
Back to reality - once the print book is here and ready to go, I'll be setting up a blog tour. I've already got two blogs that have asked me to come and visit. I'm working on getting more. I'll post the information here so you can "follow" me around if you have the time.
Thanks for visiting and following. I don't say that enough, and I truly am so appreciative of the time you spend here with me.
What I'd love to know is if any of you have self-pubbed a book. If yes, please leave your info in the comments. I'd like to check them out!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations. Seeing your name on a book is awesome. I'm not currently self-pubbed but you might want to see Kendall Grey. She is about to be. Also, I think Laura Eno might be. Anyway, I've thought about self-pubbing a novella that is a prequel to a series. If you'd like to guest on my blog, let me know. You are welcome to. :) Good luck!
ReplyDeleteCiara~ Thanks for offering to have me on your blog. That would be great! I'll check out Kendall Grey and Laura Eno.
