Book launch!

Now the work really begins! I just ordered 50 more books and I will begin to contact Indie bookstores. Please remember no matter where you get your books to review them on Goodreads or on my wordpress site. Amazon will only let you leave reviews if you order from them, but if you do please leave reviews. As an author that is the only way we can get beyond our loving family and friends.

My addresses are as follows: https://ellenplumbs.indielite.org                                                                                                                     https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NBWVTBC/           

If you have problems contact me at my e-mail address: dairsik@gmail.com

Thank You all for your support. The ride continues!

Coming Soon

dairsik

I received a proof today and went through it! I have ordered books and will have them soon. The launch date will be set as soon as they arrive and I will post it here and on Facebook.

Hero’s Journey is ready for formatting and I am working with Villa Design on a cover. All is well!

God’s timing

dairsik

I sit here chewing my lip and thinking about all I have to do before my launch, which is supposed to be on the 9th of March. The ARC book had some formatting issues and my formatting person has been sick. Not good.

I am trying to be patient. My character, Sela has trouble with this particular trait as well. I could possibly learn from her that I have to let go and let God. His timing is not always my timing.

If indeed I am not able to get the formatting done today and make the corrections that I have to make for the hardcopy and e-pub, I will have to change the launch date. It is not the end of the world and I can publish later in the month. I will listen and learn and let you know soon!

We are a faceless generation. Connected only by invisible wavelengths and radio frequencies. We can have hundreds, even thousands, of followers and simultaneously feel completely unnoticed.

It is SO easy to scroll through our feed and leave a comment on a story or a post. It is SO easy to brush someone off when they say something we don’t like. It is SO easy not to realize how our words and actions effect people. We can stroll through life mostly oblivious to the way other people feel, or convince ourselves that how they feel is illegitimate, and therefore unworthy of our notice.

Let me let you in on a little secret, as a…
