Hi. My booklet was supposed to be out months ago, and finally now! Cover is touched here it is you can order on Kindle Amazon ebook. Just went live a bit ago. Soft back is here and journal, most likely this week also. It was quite trialing and now we can start writing into the children's series. This is under my pen name. Happy Memorial!

Interesting seeing how many authors here struggle with discoverability or sales after publishing. I was recently looking at a number of self published books and noticed that the ones selling consistently were doing a few things outside Amazon that many authors overlook.

One thing nobody prepared me for as an author was how emotionally draining promotion can feel after publishing. You finally put your work out there… and then you’re refreshing pages hoping people even see it. No reviews. Low visibility. Algorithms doing whatever they want. Meanwhile you KNOW the book deserves readers. I genuinely thought writing the book was the hard part. Turns out getting consistent attention on it is a completely different skill. What’s interesting is once I started approaching promotion differently, I noticed a huge shift in engagement and discoverability. Now I understand why some books quietly disappear while others keep gaining traction months later. Any other authors here relate to this? What’s been your biggest frustration after publishing?

Does anybody have experience with live readings of your book at schools & libraries? If so please share your experience.

I met with an illustrator yesterday! We are moving forward with the development of the main character to see if we can capture my vision and the mood of the book. It is actually happening!
