For My Daughter

I think about my daughter now. She is sweet and innocent. She loves her daddy. I am the man in her life.



Then I think about ten years from now (fifteen, if I get my way). She will most likely have a new man in her life. She will be thinking about romance and marriage.



That's what was on my mind as I wrote the latest volume of my Amish Journey. I will admit that I had to move away from the keyboard for a while. I couldn't see what I was typing through the tears. So, I…

Praise from strangers

Every once in a while I come across something that makes all the hard work trying to make it as a writer worth it. I’ve had these moments in the past, like when I discovered an article about me written in Italy and I had to have it translated just to read it. http://sftech.blog.tiscali.it/2012/01/16/vendere-ebook-un-caso-su-amazon/

Another was when KND praised DROP OUT as a sleeper hit.…

PUBLISHING IS A BUSINESS...PERIOD



What if you wanted to open a Sally’s Sewing Shoppe? Wouldn’t it make sense that you knew about sewing?

About the machine and how it works? Maybe an inkling about fabric types?

How about sewing accessories? Publishing is a business. Period.



When you self-publish, and you contract with an AuthorHouse, iUniverse, Xlibris or a LuLu, you are sharing the profit.

Their name is on the door, not yours. Whoosh—with the use of their name, you could see 50 percent plus
