Power in Failure

 

Let me introduce you to a young woman, a daughter of incredibly successful immigrants from China who grew up figure skating competitively.

She worked for years, sacrificing so much for her sport. I mean, we’ve all seen The Cutting Edge, right? This isn’t something you do casually. We know this isn’t just an after school activity if you want to make it to the Olympics. And she did.

That was The Goal.

Only, when push came to shove, she and her pairs partner failed to make the Olympics cut.

Can you imagine the heartbreak?

But sinc...

Content Editing Updates

Hi everyone!

Below is an update for my Content Editing guidelines.

I’m making some changes because I realized I was priced at about 27% of what the average was for the work I do and making roughly $4.80 an hour before taxes… yeah, math.

I did NOT make the jump to the average content and developmental edits pricing in the industry for a very specific reason: Most of us can’t afford to pay that.

Instead, I split the difference.

I do have the occasional spot open up and will look at working with...

Simplifying Series: Series & Character Bible

Are you overwhelmed by the tons of data and sheets most series bibles and character sheets have?

This one simplified to make sure you have everything you need, without tipping over into ‘creation work’ that can sometimes create busy work.

INCLUDED:

• A style guide to help you and your editors stay on the same page and consistent
• Character list that keeps all your main characters, primary characters, secondary characters, and walk-ons straight. No one ever has to do weird searches to...

The Sweetest Things is LIVE! Woot Woot and .99 This week!

If you somehow missed it, I have a brand new series out that takes place in the best “tourist” destination you’ve never heard of: Starlight Harbor.

Starlight Harbor is a gorgeous little village on the coast of Maine with a rich history involving Scottish clans, smugglers, pirates, and a more recent one of celebrating Christmas year-round.

Wait, what?

Yup – they celebrate Christmas year-round for military families separated during the holidays — and love them to bits.

Starlight Harbor’s Swee...

The Hill I’d Die On

You know what…. I’m kind of done with that hill.

I built an emotional bulldozer and leveled that sucker.

I have one. A hill. I mean, we all have one, right? Not just a pet peeve but something you believe so deeply that when you hear people say it isn’t true you’re like, “WHO ARE YOU???”

The Oxford Comma people hire hitmen. Or so I’ve heard.

But when we look at these, really look at them, who the heck cares?

Let me back up. I’ve been Indie publishing since 2011, technically 2009 but … off topi...

Plan Like a Bestseller … is LIVE!

 

I’m so excited to give you the new and improved book. If you don’t follow me online, let me give you the quick and dirty. The AuthorLife Planner is no more. Every year we’ll price out creating an actual planner-planner, but we found when asked that over 90% of people who used this yearly didn’t use the planner pages because…book.

The Planner Pages are free for download (the link is at the end of the book) so if you’re one of that 8%, you can still get those pages and fill them out to your...

AuthorLife Planner is now….

Are you one of my AuthorLife Planner peeps? If so I know you’re wondering (because I’ve gotten your emails… and DMs… and tweets… and carrier pigeons) what’s going on for 2019!

So many great things.

First off, we’ve made one really REALLY important change: We’ve taken the calendar pages out of the book.

Don’t panic! You’ll still get your pages.

But what does that look like?

First off, I know that every year we talk about trying to make the planner section an actual wire-bound planner but haven...
