I’m evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they’re letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.
It covers:

The best blogging techniques.
How to get traffic to your blog.
How to turn your blog into money.

I have looked at a lot of author promos and book tours lately, and I really like them, but there’s one thing missing…until now.
The various promotional author tours focus on excerpts, sell sheets, initerviews about the book and interviews about the industry (writing, publishing, marketing).  Nothing wrong with any of that.  It’s all good, but […]

So many stories in the world’s great mytholigies are about the hero venturing forth to slay a dragon.  have you ever wondered why this is?
Do you think it is because there were once dragons?
Do you think it is because they represent a monster we don’t understand?
Do you think it’s a symbol for facing any enemy?
Consider […]

My grandmother Mama Lou used to make fudge for days.  Everybody loved her fudge.  When it got too hard for her to make fudge, I took over the tradition, though I never could make HER fudge as well as she did.  I found a different recipe, but true to my nature, I couldn’t leave it […]

An heirloom is something that is cherished, protected and enjoyed for generations.  Mostly we think of heirlooms as physical objects.  Grandma’s rosary, Great Grandpa’s wooden train, or mom’s first teddy bear.  Some of these heirlooms are worth a great deal financially, some are not.  Butwhat is it, beyond financial considerations, that makes something an heirloom?
It […]

Did you ever make cookie cut-outs?  You know, the ones that you roll out on a board, then you pick a shaped cutter and place the shapes onto a cookie sheet to bake.
Wouldn’t it be cool if you could create a special story that you could share with
your loved ones this holiday season?
Most people think it’s […]

Ken McArthur’s book Impact is not even done yet, but you can see it listed at Amazon.com and at Target.com.  I must say, it messed with my mind to see the page count, cover, and other information for a book that hasn’t reached the publisher yet.
His deadline with Career press is December 15, and only […]

Pressure!  Ken McArthur’s clock is rapidly counting down.   Dark clouds skud across the sky toward Ken’s home.  Lightning flashes.  Thunder booms.  The air feels so think you need a spoon to breathe.  The ominous clouds huddle close, leaning in close to discover whether Ken McArthur’s first book will make it to the publisher intime.
Tick, tock, […]

x(Note from Ronda:  Cat Muldoon’s vivid fantasy suspense novel Rue the Day: The Undercover Heir Book 1, blends magic, mysticism, healing arts, evolving characters and a plot as twisty as the Celtic knotwork that inspired it.  I asked Cat to write an article about the power of legends and stories for the modern human being.  […]

welcome back to another writing clinic.  Today I am addressing that sick, sick puppy known as the publishing industry.  I love writing, but the publishing industry is definitely a sick system in need of revamping.  It is a dinosaur, built on an old  and ineffective business model.  Traditional publishers have so many layers of people to […]
