First, I am already scheduling book events for this year. In June I will be attending a festival in Grove City. I will also do Applefest and Petfest again. I will not be doing the Oil City Library’s Author event. I have done it for two years, and it has not been very fruitful. WhenContinueContinue reading “Pokémon Day is Coming Happy 3o years of catching them all!!!”

Winter Sucks
Winter sucks It’s not been fun. I already have a natural aversion to winter as being half-Aussie, so being stuck in the house with bitter temps does not help. It’s made me become behind on things due to dealing with issues related to the bad weather. I’m working towards getting a new beta reader, butContinueContinue reading “Winter Sucks”
2026 is already stressful
I did the list of what I have to do this year and already feel overwhelmed, won’t lie. I have to get Quest out this year, but I won’t push to have it out for the book events. People don’t tend to buy the second book unless they are already a fan, so I willContinueContinue reading “2026 is already stressful”
It’s almost Christmas time….
Well, it’s almost December. I am behind on Quest because of losing my car to a deer. Everyone is fine, even the stupid deer, but not my car. Another financial burden my family did not need. I hope at least by the end of next week to be done with the first round of editsContinueContinue reading “It’s almost Christmas time….”
This is Halloweeeen 2025
I sold 9 books in total at Applefest! I was surprised that I didn’t sell more, but it was still a good amount. Made no profit in the end with the total sales I’ve done this year, but still at least got them out there. Now if I could just get reviews…sigh. I am doingContinueContinue reading “This is Halloweeeen 2025”
Applfest!!!
One of my favorite events of the year is coming in fast! I will be in front of the Franklin Public Library from 10 am to about 4 pm. It will depend on the amount of traffic and/or whether I sell out. At about 2:30 pm, I will read the prologue from Destiny, so ifContinueContinue reading “Applfest!!!”
Petfest Saturday
Last post before Petfest! I will be in the Bandstand Park in Franklin, PA, this Saturday, September 13th, 2025. I will have copies of Never Alone and Destiny’s Call to Arms in both paperback and hardcover. I will not have the rubber ducks or Edgar or my little dragon because there will be lots ofContinueContinue reading “Petfest Saturday”
Golden
Well, sort of. I was more on the sunburned side, but everything went pretty well at the Oil City Festival of the Book. Sold 3 copies of Destiny, which is on par with what I sold last year (though that was 3 copies of Never Alone). It did not seem as busy as last year,ContinueContinue reading “Golden”
Vindication with my Napalm era
Yes, I finally watched it. I’ll talk about in Pop culture corner. The paperback is up as I had already posted. It was on their end, as I had thought from the beginning. Shock. I am still salty, for I had told them that the files from the hardcover had gone through the same changesContinueContinue reading “Vindication with my Napalm era”
