I’ve been
neglecting my blog recently. First I was busy getting The Croaking Raven out,
and then I didn’t have anything worthwhile to write about, it seemed. Here’s to
mending my ways.
An erratic
blogging schedule seems to have been the theme of the entire 2014 with me. I wrote twelve posts less than the year before, although to compensate that, I
wrote a second blog too – which I ended up neglecting even worse than this one.
Maybe I’ll pick up with that later.
I published two
books last year, Her Warrior for Eternity and It Happened on a Lie, and wrote a
third, The Croaking Raven, that I published the first thing this year. So all
in all, a fairly good year. Income-wise, however, the year was worse than the
previous. I try not to blame the Kindle Unlimited, but it’s difficult.
To counter the
declining sales on Amazon, I finally put those of my books not on KU on sale
through Smashwords – the first new venture of this new year. It took a few trials
and errors, but now that I know how it’s done, I’m ready to share my skills
with others.
Which brings me
to the second new venture:
Starting from
this day, I’m offering e-book formatting services. I’m sure not everyone wants
to tackle with all the annoying details and differences that go into formatting
files so that they convert to e-books the best possible way. I’m here to help.
You can check my services here.
I’m also selling
pre-made book covers. I love to create book covers and I have more ideas than I
have use for myself – often in genres I don’t write myself. You might have a
need for exactly the kinds of covers I have ready. Take a look at my selection
here. And here’s a little taste of what you can find there:

So that’s how
I’ve started my year. On top of this all, I’ve begun to write the next
Two-Natured London novel to be published this spring. I’ll keep you posted.
Until next time – a little belatedly – happy new year!
