I finished my NaNo today with about 51,250 words so far. I can't 'validate' it until next Tuesday, but I'll do that first thing Tuesday morning. I spent part of the day making my 'down stairs' office usable. It won't be as fancy as I want it yet, but at least I'll be using it by Saturday. The... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew. It's been a whirlwind of activity the last couple of days. Two new books released, both doing well ('Johnny Goes North' has broken into the top 100 of 'graphic novels, all the way up to #67!), a ton of traveling, and my NaNo has now crossed into the victory lane word count. I'm more than half... Sign in to see full entry.

WOW! Thank you!
I was going to go to bed, but thought I'd check out how my last two books are doing. I just published "The Brick" less than 48 hours ago and it has shot up the charts like wild fire. Thank you. 'Johnny Goes North' is moving quite well, but it hasn't began to move into the upper ranks of the... Sign in to see full entry.
Whew. It's been a long day. I ended up having to run to the east side of the UP today. Besides the fact that it's the night before Thanksgiving, it was COLD outside. Right now at 1 AM Thanksgiving morning, my cell app is telling me it is 4 below. Beavis! The only good thing that came out of that... Sign in to see full entry.
As the group Foreigner sang, it's as cold as ice outside. When I first woke up, my cell weather app said it was 5 below F. The extended forecast doesn't have much hope for improvement for a few days, so no outside walks for me! For the next five days, both of my just released books are available on...

It is COLD out there tonight. My cell phone tells me it is 9 degrees, but it feels a lot lower than that tonight. At least the wind isn't blowing 30 mph. I've got a lot done today, but for reasons I can't explain, it doesn't seem like I worked hard enough. I'm moving forward with another post in my... Sign in to see full entry.

The wind off Mama Superior brought the temps down to four... that's 4 F... degrees last night. 'The Gales of November' indeed. I've been busy updating my Amazon Central Author page with the news of my two recent additions. You would be amazed at the emails I get from people who peruse my pages and...

One of the dogs woke me up ans as I was getting ready to get back to sleep, I got the email telling me that The Brick was officially launched.... Sign in to see full entry.

The Brick Has Been Thrown
"The Brick" is now in the process of being published to the "Big A." If it follows the rest the pattern that I've seen from Amazon lately, it will be available by morning by searching for it and in my 'author section' by noon. I used a plain cover because my partner has been ill lately. Once he is... Sign in to see full entry.
So far, my comic book has sold five copies on its first day out. Not bad for the goofy kid living in the highest house on the block. I'm working on converting "The Brick" over into an e-book right now, with hopes of having it sent off to Amazon before I go to bed. It's getting colder again, and if I... Sign in to see full entry.
