Year In Review

A year ago this week our book Call Sign: Wrecking Crew (Storm Warning) was placed on sale under Amazon Kindle

By February 2011, I started this blog.  At first it was an experiment and a way to voice my frustrations at everything I didn't know. 

We've come a long ways...I've learned how and where to add our book. 1500 Authors, Barnes & Noble, Books & Novels to Read, Create Space, Goodreads, Independent Authors & Writers, Kindle Mojo, Military Writer's Society of America, and Smashwords to name a few. I'm sure there are a few other places, that I've forgotten about but you get the picture.

Throughout the year, I've made many new friends, which I'm sure includes most if not all of my followers. I just realized that I might not have learned all the new things and met all the great folks that I have, if I hadn't gotten on to the Amazon Discussion threads. Isn't it funny how one event leads to another in real life. I believe much the same as a writer directs that of their characters to lead up to the big finale', events are ordered by a Higher Power (in our case, God) so that people will be where they need to be.  So thank you Lord for putting so many great people in my path so I can continue  on this journey of self-publishing.  Thank you friends for joining us for whatever length of time.

Originally, I was going through the past blogs, hoping that I could post a select few. What I discovered, was that I couldn't narrow it down. I feel that I have our journey pretty well documented. I have links to helpful information. I have comments that have lead me to a different fork in the road that I never thought I'd take.  I suggest if you haven't already done so, go back through our earlier posts and see if there isn't something new you can take away to help make your journey a little easier.  

One final request, I'd love the seasoned authors/bloggers out there to help me help up and coming authors with whatever comes their way.  To that regard, I encourage comments with questions or advice that I may not have thought of. 

"Bestsellers" and Happy New Year to all.
