Eva’s Byte #285 – Taking Care of Biz

In a similar vein to Don Michael Corleone telling Carlo Rizzi in The Godfather Part 1, that today he settled all business—so did I.

Book biz, which ate a chunk of my morning, rendered me figuratively dizzy from going around in circles on the Internet.

Heeding the advice of my publisher, I engaged in the process of enrolling one of my books, An Enlightening Quiche (2016), in their new global distribution service. The benefits include, but are not limited to: direct payments, 100 % net royalties, and reduced print costs.

It still behooves any reader interested in acquiring the paperback version (signed copy) to do so through my web page at Authors Den ($18.50 includes s/h).

Now, to the nitty-gritty of taking care of biz:

It takes more than imagination for a story to take flight.

From my perspective: if I only knew then, what I know now from having gotten back into the published author’s swing of things in 2016, after a hiatus of several years. As with subsequent works published in 2017 and 2019, my next book will be solo self-published.

My personal decision is not meant as a criticism for those who choose other routes of publication. Each of us acts in accordance with fostering our best interests at heart.

In regard to the book biz of writing my Contemporary work in progress, I’m at the bunny-tail end of drafting chapter 57, Part 3. Pun intended, in association with researching recipes for redneck rabbit stew to authenticate a scene.

Whatever your biz, best wishes from start to finish.

*My sincere appreciation if you’ve read this far.
