People often say… “Wow, you’ve written 10 books!” And yes — it sounds easy when you say it like that. But the truth? It’s not just writing. It’s writing, then editing, then reading it again and realizing it’s still not perfect.

Making Money at Conventions
The biggest problem authors have when it comes to making money at conventions is the lack of preparation. There’s a lot of preparation that goes into a successful convention foray, and most authors have no idea how much preparation it takes; most figure they just need the books, some way to deal with credit cards, and then show up and sell books. Yeah, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Authors need to realize that a lot of planning goes into a successful convention table, and this article should help with that planning process. Just be prepared for a lot of research and paperwork, but that’s just part of the business.

Book Review Services - A Comparison
Recently, I independently re-published a book that was originally published in 2020 with a small publisher. Sadly, what happens when you re-publish a book is that it doesn’t actually replace the other version – it is published as a new edition. This means that the book loses all its previously acquired reviews on websites such as amazon. While I’m all for getting organic reviews, if you’ve ever tried to build up your book reviews you know how hard it is to get those first dozen. Once you get a dozen or so reviews, they begin to keep trickling in but for some reason no one wants to be in that first batch.
