Back on the Saddle again...

Hello!

I honestly don’t know if anyone is around anymore - and fair enough - why stay in an empty room when the host leaves the room with “I’ll be right back,” and doesn’t return for two years!

So I’ll be starting my blog to my journey on self-publishing here.

More to gather my thoughts, and hey, if other authors benefit from this, then that’s great!

I’ll be writing my journey here. If you write fantasy, YA or science fiction, my path could help!

Just a little introduction:

I’ve written my debut novel: A Dash of Belladonna in New Zealand 2017 (launched two weeks before my baby was born)

Due to this a lot of marketing went out the window.

I’ve been very fortunate that a few bookstores wanted my books and they order some every now and then.

To this date it has sold around 100-200 books, which I am more than happy with.

However I feel like I’m not doing the best for my baby. So here’s some attempts to revitalize the book!

First things first:

Gotta have a clear vision of what I want and where I am going with this.

WISH:

  • I want my first book to get some attention for the sequel I am writing.

GOALS:

  • I want to exhaust all options I have with this book, and feel I’ve done everything I could for my first book.

  • I want the book in at least 10 bookstores around NZ.

  • I want five more reviews.

  • I want to make sure the book is available on all platforms (I previously went with Kindle exclusive?)

Whew. They don’t look too bad, right?

Wish me luck :)
