Publishing Journals

Have you ever heard of publishing Low Content on Amazon? I was scrolling through Facebook when I should have been writing.  I came across Katharyne Shelton.  She is on Youtube and has created Tangent Templates.  (Might want to google that) It is when you create a journal.  Lined pages or blank pages.  Create a cover and load it up at KDP. She sells the templates so basically all you have to do is create a cover.  It costs you nothing. Canva  is a website where you can create your covers for Free.  I never heard of this. I am not endorsing this at all. I have always thought it would be cool to have a journal to go along with my non-fiction books.  It is something to look into.  She also has a facebook page, that you can join.  I must warn you that, like everything else, it works for some and not always for others.  There are people who create hundreds of journals, different sizes and upload them on amazon....

To Quit Your Day Job or Not To Quit Your Job

I quit my job February 23, 2019 I was tired.  I was cranky and I just wanted to write.  I have said for years, "I just want to take a year off to write."  The time came.  I put my notice in.  The day I walked out of that building and never looked back.  Sure I have to watch my money.  Ink for the printer is not cheap.  The internet is not cheap.  Writing supplies is not cheap.  Then there is monthly bills.  I downsized and willing to give up a few things so I can stay home to write. For me, it is not a money thing.  It is a heart thing.  I am told that I am a nicer person.  I think I was hard to live with because I was so tired and mad about myself because I wasn't doing what I wanted to do.                   HERE IS THE UPDATE 1.  Published Prepare Yourself For The Rapture, as an E-Book 2.  Have a Proof Copy of Prepare Yourself For The Rapture 3....

Writing For Love or Money

Why do you write? 1.  For money 2.  To show the world that I am not stupid and am a writer. 3.  To sell a million books. 4.  To have a book signing in New York City and people are lined up around the block for my book. 5.  To hold a copy of my book in my hand. 6.  To tell my story. 7.  To spread The Gospel throughout the world. 8.  To shut the characters up that are screaming in my head. 9.  Because I am a writer. 10.  I live to write and I write to live. Those are 10 reasons why I write.  I don't write for money.  Though I did quit my job to write and blog.  It has been 4 months since I quit my job.  I wrote one book and published it.  I am working on the Print Version now, waiting for my second Proof Copy, and to double check every word and comma.
