Mini-Update: New Blurbs and Other Stuff

An Actual Comic Cover Blurb.  Made me chuckle.

An Actual Comic Cover Blurb. Made me chuckle.

As I lay here waiting to see if my stomach is either hungry or unhappy with something I ate or decided to attract a bug overnight, I thought I’d make a post.  About what?  Just random stuff, I guess.  Probably book related and I have had a few questions:

  1. New blurbs for all LEGENDS OF WINDEMERE books will be going up over the course of the week.  I already did the ones for BEGINNING OF A HERO, PRODIGY OF RAINBOW TOWER, and ALLURE OF THE GYPSIES.  That last one is still being reviewed though.  The goal is to get them all up by the weekend before I get my new author photo.  This way I can step into a new site I found with all the fresh stuff.
  2. I am hoping to release LEGENDS OF WINDEMERE: SLEEPER OF THE WILDWOOD FUGUE at some point in the spring.  The goal is April, but we all know what happens with me a deadlines.  The thing here is that I don’t want to do a mid-month release like the last two.  That probably didn’t have as much of an impact on the sales as them being part of a lengthy series.  Still I need to minimize the things that are going against me.
  3. Sales have been royally sucking and I’m out of ideas as far as promoting.  Trying to push on is the only thing I can do, but some aspects are really starting to bog down my mood.  It might be why one or two of my characters have become so irritable and depressed.  Yesterday I got Nyx out of her funk and today I do the same to Sari.  The boys are going to have to wait for the opportune moment.
  4. Shoveling snow in my pajamas was not fun.
  5. Dear god, what did I eat that is making my insides wish they’d never been given sentience by that voodoo priestess?

  1. Hope your insides are back to their normal (sentient) self by now. I had to laugh at the excellent comic blurb. I’m reminded of the classical Q line, “do try to bring this one back, Double-O!” 😀

  2. LOL at the blurb. Hope the stomach does not have Kid-at-school-brings-home-the-flu symptoms.

    Okay, #5, sentient innards is something I’ve never heard before and never want to experience. Keep away voodoo priestess! #4 Never tried shoveling in my PJs, although it might be something I’d try to keep me awake when I need to stay awake. Do you sleepwalk? 😉 #3 Sales? Keep writing and forget about the sales. Let your writing be your goal! But, I have a funny feeling you know this already! 🙂

    • Now I’m wondering what a zombie with sentient innards would be like. 🙂 I don’t recommend the shoveling in PJs. It did keep me alert, but too cold. I don’t sleepwalk though. Hard enough walking when awake. Thanks about #3. I’m trying, but it gets tough some days.

  5. I spent one year in PA and everyone said it was the worst winter they had had for decades. Every time the snow finally melted and I could remember what the ground looked like, it snowed again later the same day. We had three weeks in February where the temperature didn’t climb above 32; they called it the Deep Freeze. Seems like I spent months shoveling snow. 🙂
