The distance between writing a book and getting it read by someone is huge. There are a number of intermediaries, each posing a hurdle that needs to be crossed with tact and skill to finally get your name listed in the authors of the world. Apart from producing quality content, you need to have an extended network of quality people, which includes book publishers, literary agents, distributors, theatrical producers, and film producers.…

Romance novels are arguably the most economically successful of all fiction genres. According to Romance Writers of America, romance books bring in a whopping 1.3 billion dollars a year, more than mystery novels, science fiction and fantasy combined. It's no wonder that more than half of all new fiction is comprised of romance novels. (This statistic is borne out by Amazon's…

When my first novel was complete, I sent it to an academic press. (You could do that then.) The editor liked the book, but decided it would be better placed in a popular press. She gave me a “for example” that I took as a literal suggestion. I called the exampled publisher, and asked for a random editor.
(Warning: Do not try this at home without adult supervision.)
The editor answered the phone. (They could do that…

Are you a self-published author who currently has a book(s) available on one of the Amazon bookstores or other places?
The Amazon book market is big, HUGE is a better adjective, but has nowhere near the worldwide exposure that mobile app stores like Google Play, Apple's iStore and others enjoy. Did you know that you can easily position yourself to sell many more books either directly through the app stores, or by using a mobile app to drive readers TO your bookstore? If not, don't…

The KFD sponsorship for IMAGINATION http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ATFC3JM on Tuesday did fairly well and once again eclipsed all my other marketing efforts in return dollars to spent ratio. I got below the 5,000 rank for a bit on Amazon and sales did increase dramatically for a few hours. As usual, I would recommend KFD as a top return.
I’ve slowed marketing efforts on my other nine novels to focus more on the four-book…

With daily renewing of the mind,
one is bound to learn and find
ideas for personal resolutions
that lead to a Kingdom solution.
Having Godly ideals and attitudes,
is more than possessing platitudes.
It’s about one’s choices and lifestyle
that leads to a life being worthwhile.
To be a true child of God,
one must have His Love shed abroad
and present in one’s actions
to obtain spiritual satisfaction.
For…

Although we’re flawed,
as both sinner and saint,
we must learn to live
within Godly constraints.
Rain continues to fall -
both on the just and unjust;
faith requires maturation;
upon our Lord, we must trust.
We can cry out and praise Him
with supplications and our joy!
We are filled with confidence,
knowing we’re His girls and boys!
We can always rely on our Christ,
in all times and at every…

Down to the Needle
“The perp torched himself,” a fireman said, shouting to be heard over the clamor.
Angry red and orange flames from the still burning back half of the warehouse licked at the night sky. Glowing yellow embers, blown by April’s night breezes off the nearby ocean, took flight. Fire trucks encircled the building. Firefighters scrambled over strewn equipment. Men wearing army fatigues darted about. Two ambulances waited for the…

If you haven't noticed, I have been taking an hiatus from writing. But, that's not to say that my hiatus will be permanent. Not by a long shot. Instead, I have been immersed in reading autobiographies which always whet my appetite to write.
One of the books I had the pleasure of reading was about Frances Farmer. I had always heard the stories and even saw a clip from the show, "This is Your Life" that featured her very dark life. She was a hopeful, shining…

Junk food is what is on our minds and platter nowadays. Even our choice of juices is very unhealthy. We…
