Monday

You can do it, Monday!

I think I can, I think I can....
Remember that little book of the little train?
Start the day proclaiming that you can do it! Don't let the naysayers get an edge. Begin knowing that you've been given this day and along with it, the Lord has given you what you need to accomplish your goals.

So, what are your goals? Do you have any?

I am usually very goal challenged. I write by the Seat-of-my-pants and tend to live that way. But I am entering into a new chapter in my life. And I have things I need to accomplish.
Goals of the week

  • Edit 10 chapters on Liberty Belle
  • Write 3 chapters on my new WIP
I can do this. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.

Next Monday - I'll let you know how I did.

The Publishing Road

Just where am I on this road to publishing?

I do have 4 books finished. At least they have 'The End' attached to the last page.
Of course they all need their final editS and that is edit with a capital S.
I want them to be the best that I can make them.

The first book jumping out of the computer and into publish land, is Liberty Belle.
As you can see, I have the front cover finished thanks to  Delia Latham. She was a pleasure to work with.

But what do I have to do now? This very day?
 EDIT

So, beside working on my blog, I am going to have a quiet Saturday afternoon with Liberty Longstreet, Aunt Flora, and of course Sheriff Wade Calder. I'll let them tell me a thing or two that will enhance and tighten their story.

Till next week.

Things I will need to do before I publish Liberty Belle:

  • of course finish the edit
  • line up endorsements
  • reviews
  • blog interviews
  • formatting for E-pub
  • finish back cover of book
  • Pray
  • Pray a lot

God is Good

Friday

I am embarking on the great E-pub journey. My first book - Liberty Belle - will hit the cybershelf in May, 2012

There were many reasons to jump the traditional fences of the traditional publishing route.

  • I am not traditional  : )
  • I love my freedom
  • I believe the Lord has directed me on this path (really the number one reason)
  • Ability to be published this year rather than waiting - waiting - waiting
Keep in touch and I'll update my blog on what I learn about the process.
