Indie authors are considered small businesses!

The best thing is buying from the author directly! And don't forget that books make great gifts.⁠

[S. W. Raine @SWRaine1]

Any tips on increasing focus/attention span, @WritingCommunity ? Mine’s just getting worse and worse.

Who's ready for the holidays? I’m not. I’m a grinch. 😅

My choices are: Sugar Cookie, Hot chocolate, Fluffy pajamas, Artificial tree, Holiday movies, Gift Bags.

BONUS QUESTION: is Die Hard a holiday movie?

We watch it every Christmas eve. 😆

[S. W. Raine @SWRaine1]

They don’t all have one single thing in common, but my eclectic tastes scream mythology/religion, magic, Ancient Egypt, steampunk, and suspense.

[S. W. Raine @SWRaine1]

Grateful for this 4-star #bookreview! 😊

New #blog post alert!⁠

NaNoWriMo is almost over, and I'm currently sitting at a little over 46,000 words out of 50,000.

This is my 18th year participating, and I'm on track to make it my 17th win. But it wasn't easy getting this far.

Indie authors are small businesses.
⁠
We use book marketing to promote our brand, we're responsible for keeping our readers engaged, we stay on top of what the market wants, we have a (tight) budget, and we need to reinvest in our own book marketing and promotions.
