Welcome back!

Where to begin.... The majority of my time is spent working on the second draft of H.U.B. Volume 3: The Tipping Point whether it be during my lunch hour at work or working on it while watching TV at home.

Haven't received any query responses from agents in a while and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing per se.

My head feels like CRAP right now - think I'm coming down with some kind of head cold or something. Not sure what that's about because I felt fine this morning but, oh well, what can you do?

I should be placing the order for the printed up copies of HUB Volume 1 and 2 early next week and I'm excited about that. I can't imagine how I'm going to feel when I get those 100 books and to be able to feel the weight of it in my hands and see my picture on the back and know that this is MY book. I know that it's going to be amazing. I'm hoping that the paperbacks will open up more doors for me as not everyone is on the e-book bandwagon yet. I can't really blame them - if I had the choice I would want paperback as well.

Words of wisdom to my fellow writers out there - don't ever let a lack of sales or a negative review lead you to believe that you don't have talent because you do. Everything isn't for everybody and it only takes one person to recognize your talent and that one person can completely change your life. I remember getting my first review for HUB and it made me so happy because it reinforced to me that I wasn't putting all this hard work into this project in vain. I know it's going to grow and I know that people are going to love it.

KEEP THE FAITH!
