I’m normally at my computer writing by 6:30 or 7 in the morning. I’m one of those folks who likes getting up at first light and mornings are my most creative time. It’s just flat easier to write in the morning for me than at any other time.
Today, however, I’m doing it differently. First of […]

This is taking chances month at the b5media.com business channel. We’ve been challenged to do something slightly differently. Hence my call for guest bloggers the other day. (And you’re still welcome to submit one, or two, or… )
I’ve also changed the tag line - no, not the one under the logo on top (more about […]

The truth is, the principles Sonia point out about romance novels… what makes them work, will work for many more kinds of writing than just copy or […]

I was truly surprised when I discovered that one of Borders Bookstore’s 15 new concept stores around the country opened a few days ago just moments from me in National City (adjacent to San Diego on the south). I’m not totally clear on the concept of concept store in this instance, although I was intrigued […]

Can you see what’s in my backyard? Yep, kittens! There are actually four of them and plus, of course, the mom. All feral at the moment, but three and maybe four of the kittens are spoken for. I’ll try to trap mom once the kittens are gone and get her nutered, then, if she’ll let […]

Back in March I speculated about what I’d do when my $600 rebate arrived. Today, with the announcement that the first rebates were deposited today, I looked back at my post.

Sigh! I suppose it should be obvious, but until I read Joe Wikert’s story called Kindle Book Conversion: One Author’s Story that I realized there would, of course, be formatting problems when it came time to get your book, or mine, into shape for whatever ebook reader I wanted to be able to sell it […]
