| Hello one and all. I'm a newly published fantasy author, entering the quite frightening realm of self publishing. In fact, I don't think I've ever been more scared in my entire life than I was when I sent in my book to be published. My first book "Beautiful Savage" recently went on sale over at Amazon and I hope I can learn more from my fellow authors. I'm all for constructive criticism, in fact I thrive on it. Nothing helps me more than other's pointing out where my weaknesses lie.
As of right now, people seem to like my stories, it's just a matter of advertisement that seems to be the bane of my existence. But no matter, even if only one person in the entire world likes my book, then I can take comfort with that knowledge. I'm really not in this for the money, though that would be nice, I'm doing this because I love to write and tell stories.
I'm currently working on my second and third book simultaneously. Don't ask, it's just how I do things. But basically, if I'm stuck on one, I can always work on the other with no problem, and vice versa.
Let's see, what else about me? Inspirations? Well... everything really. I can get inspired by the shape of a cloud, to the blowing of grass peddles, from a piece of art by Marc Chagall, to the explosions of a Micheal Bay movie. Inspiration is all around us and ever present, all I have to do is open my eyes to the world around me and I can craft a story out of what my mind sees.
So thank you for listening/reading to me ramble on and I do look forward to my time here. |
