Write The Book!

It is already May.  The year is half over.  What have you done?  Is the book complete?  Have you written anything?
Don't worry.  Don't despair.  Now is the time.

I know that writing a 400 page book is a daunting task.  It is overwhelming.  I have a solution for that.
Write a scene at a time.
Write a scene a week.
Write a scene a month.

Whatever you can do, that is what you write.  No pressure.  It is your book.  The important thing is to write, no matter what.  Write a sentence a day.  Write 100 words a day.  The more you write, the more you will want to write, the more pages you will write.

I have been writing and publishing a short story a month for the past year.  It is hard sometimes and sometimes it is not.  That is my goal. 

I also started a 400 page novel.  100,000 words. Let me tell you, I would rather right a short story, but the characters are screaming in my head to get their story told.

So I will still write a short story a month and work on my novel. 

Here is the short story for the Month of May

Zombies Are Adapting

www.amazon.com/dp/B00JZL2XCI


Work In Progress (WIP)  100,000 word Time Travel Zombie Romance

I already have the first 5 chapters plotted out.

Dream Big!

Only you are limiting yourself.

I am on a journey.  Will you join me?

All you have to do is follow your dream.

You don't have to go into debt to be published.

You do have to write the book

Where did I get my book covers?

http://aliciahopeauthor.blogspot.com has done all my covers for Me VS Zombies

http://safariheatbooktours.blogspot.com did my cover for Zombies & Love Through Time

I spent less than $50.00 on each cover. 

I buy my covers ahead of time to give me the inspiration to write the book. 

Get Starte.  Write the book and get Published!

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning.

Don't Be Scammed

This is my number one pet peeve on being self published.  There are people, website, and courses out there, that want your money. THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND! There are websites out there that will charge you for services that you can learn to do yourself.  If you don't want to learn these things that is fine, pay for it.  But if the reason that you are paying for services is because you don't t think you can, you are totally wrong. I have said this before and I am saying it again.  I knew nothing when I started in 2011,  I had a computer.  I had no idea how to send a file via e-mail. I had no idea what to do one I got the file back from the formatter.  How do I get it uploaded on Amazon.  I had no idea that I had more than one drive on the computer.  I downloaded a file and had no idea where it went. If you are thinking that you can not learn this.  I am proof you can learn if you set your mind to it and are willing to learn. Don't...
