At 2:46pm on December 31, 2007, E.J. Samadhi Whitehouse said…: Hi there! Great fun looking at your site and ALL that you have done, are doing, and plan on doing...busy guy but clearly happy!! BRAVO for your accomplishments; something I aspire to and your successes only give fire to the flame so, for that, THANKS!! When you have time {ha-ha}, I'd love to know how to get my book to book clubS! That is something I feel is a perfect fit for reading Circles in the Sand and sharing and healing. Sadly, the "creator" of Canada's book clubs read my book, completely missed the plot, and seemed to write from ego rather than from heart and was stuck on "chakras" although my book is not about chakras. It was one of the oddest reviews I've seen for anyone and it's the only "bad" review I've had. And she's the head so that seems to have closed a Canadian door. I was going to contact her but it felt like I needed to not engage... I think I'm telling way too much information, considering you asked a simply question--"Hey, wanna be a friend?" {ha-ha again and sorry for the explosion of WORDS}!

One can spend an eternity roving the internet and landing on sites that do not produce much for the author. Kinda like to know what sort of action is taking place on this site. Thanks for the reference. I'm interested--just want more info. Jim Misko

I just received a check from my publisher. I sold seven additional books for the month and the check was for $3.02 after taxes. POD is becoming less and less attractive these days.

It was okay for starters when I was trying to get into the game. But now that I am in, I am playing to win. I will keep you posted of my progress.

As always, thanking you in advance for your continued support!

Happy Reading!

At 3:18pm on November 27, 2007, P. M. Morris said…: I will purchase the book ASAP!

Thanks

If you've never read urban fiction then check out my novel because I think it would be a great experience for you. It's a fiction, nonfiction story of life on the rough side of the tracks.

Thanks again Jim!!!!

Founded the first Alaska Writers Workshop in August and had 100 people participating. John Kremer was one of the faculty and make new friends and converts, including a mother moose and twins who came by for the party. Have a giant book signing coming up at Barnes & Noble Sept 23rd, with reading, signings, and sales. Will be giving a brief talk about FOR WHAT HE COULD BECOME and then reading from my novel that will be available in November, THE MOST EXPENSIVE MISTRESS IN JEFFERSON COUNTY. My next novel, THE CUT OF PRIDE is riding the shelf waiting to get in line.

Wow, Alaska! Your latest book title is intriguing. What is it about? I've only finished my first book length manuscript! Good luck with the writers' guild!

Our son's name is also Jim

At 1:52pm on June 18, 2007, Jim Misko said…: Had a book signing at Borders Books and Music in Anchorage on Saturday. Unfortunately, Saturday was one of those beautiful summer days that Alaskan's wait all winter for. Nineteen hours of delicious sunshine, warm, no wind and they didn't want to shop in a book store. Sold only five books in two hours--got two new names and e-mails for my next novel. Anybody know how to contact book clubs in the US???

At 12:19pm on May 21, 2007, Jim Misko said…: Hi Klaudia. Are you keeping stuff in the mail to agents, publishers, editors? It takes persistence even though postage rates are up. Keep the stories and books moving around. Acquisition editors change as often as jockeys on a race horse, so keep sending to different editors at same house.
And come to our Alaska Writers Workshop where authors, agents, publishers, editors, and marketing guru John Kremer will be working individually with the attendees. Canada isn't that far from Alaska.
May it go well with you. Alaska Jim

At 5:49pm on May 19, 2007, Jim Misko said…: The Alaska Writers Guild is off and running. Formation meeting was attended by 20 folk and 12 joined on the spot with others committing to join this month.
The Workshop scheduled for August 10-12 has a bunch of sign ups and outsides coming from California, Texas, and Wisconson so far. Great novelists, editors, publishers, agents and our own John Kremer will be the hosted talents for the three days in Anchorage, Alaska.
Plan to come up NOW while the price is still a low $275.
Go to our web site at www.alaskawritersworkshop.com
to see the whole story.
May it go well with you. Alaska Jim
