I'm sorry I've been absent, in case you noticed. I trimmed another 5,000 words off Bum's Rush. I'm proud of myself. Here's a lesson, one I've preached before, when you write something you don't feel 100% about, do something about it, especially if every time you stumble across it, you get that same gut feeling. Also, another lesson, one we all know, if it doesn't move the story forward, leave it out, no matter how beautifully written it is. I took a deep breath, and cut, cut, cut. It felt so good, I almost got carried away.
As soon I get the thing done, I'll let you all know, because I feel like you've all been behind me and I love you for it.
I don't see anything wrong with self-publishing. Quite a few popular books have been picked up by bigger publishers whilst going this route. Good luck and have fun!

Following your dreams is so important! That's what Andie learns in Andie's Moon.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't follow your dreams in this life, then when?
Thank you, I know there's no shame in self-publishing and ebooks are becoming so popular. Amazon and Smashwords makes it so easy and they are very helpful and professional. Follow my dream? Yes, and the faster the better.
