(There is absolutely no connection between the topic and this video.)
So, I posted before that I’m looking for guest post opportunities for December. This is when I plan on releasing the final Legends of Windemere book. After 5 years and 15 books, the adventures of Luke Callindor, Nyx, Fizzle, Sari, Delvin, Timoran, and Dariana come to an end. So, I really want to do as much as I can instead of the ‘Book is Live’ carbon copy post I always do.
So far, I have 17 volunteers who are each getting a unique post. I will be sending them out after the book is live in December, so that the sales link can be put in the body of the email along with the cover art, author bio, book blurb, etc.
If you want to be a part of this then let me know and we’ll discuss a topic. I’m trying to work hard on it now because I’ll be out a computer for a week or so starting on Thursday or Friday. If I can get all of the posts written and saved now then it takes a lot of pressure off my mind.
Thanks in advance.
Looking forward to it. I agree completely about getting things done ahead of time. I’ve been writing October posts, but I’m not up to December yet.

The broken laptop is a big factor here. My computer luck has been so bad this year that I expect explosions soon. With any luck, I’ll be able to send it in tomorrow because I’ll have all of my posts written.
By the way, it was really tough to write about our topic. Once I said stuff along the lines of, ‘I write female characters like they are humans who happen to be female’, I didn’t know where else to go.

Well, I’d send it again since it wouldn’t have the sale links, but no problem. 😀

As long as I can get the last few posts done. My plan was to work until 11, pack it up, and finish on the desktop. My dad is doing a monthly back up on the desktop, so I won’t have that until tomorrow.

Got you for an interview. So I don’t think we can do anything until the book is out in December.

Okay. I figured it out. We hadn’t discussed a topic. What about a post on designing a magic system and evolve it over a series?

I should probably connect it to the book since it’s the finale of my series. Maybe my favorite scenes, monsters, and other things from the series?

Awesome. I’m out a laptop again, but I’ll work on it once I get it back. Writing a long series is a popular question, but nobody really touches on marketing.
