I have recently started taking the advice of some of my friends who have been telling me that I need to take my writing and put it out there for others to enjoy too. And let me just say, its so satisfying to see that my things are actually being read! *does happy dance in chair* Its and amazing feeling being noticed and liked. Liked is the best part. I have always loved to write. My brothers used to make fun of me for always writing something. Im not going to say that I am amazing or that I deserve to be published but Im beginning to think that there might be something there.
I started using a site for amateur writers to post their short stories and such and its my goal to pub one chapter per week. I have a feeling that it might be less of a short story and more of a novelette in the end. But that's ok. I am in the process of looking into PubIt for the Nook. one would think that books that are self published would be boring or badly written, and i thought the same thing, but....Im reading a book right now by a self published author and its AMAZING!!! The book is called The Blood That Bonds by Christopher Buecheler. Its paranormal romance (my fav genre) with a bit of grit thrown in there. Im officially in love with the characters and cant wait to buy the 2nd book in the series. Genius marketing too. The first book is a freebie, thats why i took a shot on it. But the second book is $2.99....smart....get em hooked then take their money lol. I could compare these books to drugs and the author the dealer. Give them a free taste then they will come back willing to pay anything for more.
Anyway, I think i might be interested in pubbing my own stuff....but not sure at this point. For those of you who would read it, ill keep you posted.
