"Another one bites the dust." For the last two years, I've watched Canadian independent bookstores fight to compete with the 'big boys'--major big-box outlets and Internet retailers, but it seems like a fight to the death. As a Canadian, I cheer them on, hoping they'll succeed. As an avid reader, I mourn their loss. As an author, I feel their…

I rarely feel the need to hurl a book across the room, but I was sorely tempted last weekend. The book was Nicholas Sparks’ MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE. Now don’t get me wrong. Mr. Sparks is a great writer. His prose is specific and immediate, sometimes lyrical. His characters breathe on their own.
No, my beef with MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE is more organic. It’s about the difference in the way men and women are wired. It’s about what we each see as…

When a review is published in a newspaper, an author can take comfort in the fact that, if it's bad, the number of readers will generally be limited. If it's good, on the other hand, the possibility exists for the author to distribute it far and wide, to exploit it to the best of his/her ability. But when it's an internet review? When there's no way to tell how many people from how many places in the cyber world will read it? That's a daunting thought. And I found that this morning, because…

I have some exciting news to share. An associate of mine informed me that he recently accepted a position as a producer at a radio station. Well, I casually mentioned to him that I had been thinking about going into radio but didn't know how. He immediately contacted me to tell me about a Saturday on air slot that was available. Long story short, he hooked me up with the general manager. So, I'll be hosting a talk show from 12:30-1:30 p.m. every Saturday on…

I stay true to a very old-fashioned rule when it comes to dating a friend’s ex, whether it is an ex-boyfriend or an ex-husband. Simply put, I won’t do it because I put a high value on my friendships. To me, dating someone’s ex would be disrespectful to the friendship. Having said that, I do know that exceptions to the rule can be tempting.
In this case, Steve was the ex of an ex-friend of mine. Since the friend was no longer in my life, one would think that the no-dating-an-ex rule…

Every time you take your car in for an oil change, most shops give you a 15- or 30-point checkup when they change your oil to alert you to any other potential problems
you might experience in the future. In the same way that your mechanic conducts
a regular inspection of your automobile, you need to conduct an annual checkup
of your website.
Here are 7 critical areas that need to be checked yearly on your site:

Some recent comments left on my blog over the past few weeks have prompted me to write this particular posting. It has made me examine more closely the reasons I set up the blogsite.
Let me begin by saying that I started this blog because I wanted to chronicle my own experience of having my next novel published through the medium of POD publishing. Naturally, I set out to research the whole area using reference books, libraries, internet writer forums and trade magazines. I last…
