Today is the first day of the month of May. The year is chugging along at a steady clip, despite the pandemic. The year is almost half done, if you think about it. Quite shocking, huh...? :-O
May marks the three-year publishing anniversary of my novel "Seductra: Web of Desire" (CreateSpace, 2017).
Three years ago, I published that novel, and it continues to be one of my favorites. The project is available in both paperback AND eBook formats. Please purchase, or even DOWNLOAD a copy of the novel, as well as my other projects. If you get the opportunity, PLEASE also write a review of the book .
The Dual Release is still going on. "Suicide Amy" seems to be fairing better that "Time Will Reveal"; I've had more purchases and downloads for that particular project. Of course, this pandemic isn't helping matters, much. At the same time, my eBooks are no more than $2-$3; not enough to damage your bank account.
My heart goes out to the indie bookstores that are suffering through this pandemic. I've been reading some articles posted on Literary Hub about some of the trials and tribulations that a lot of indie bookstores are going through because of their shuttered doors. Some are moving to do more online sales, while others are making deals with a new company called Bookshop.org; apparently a indie bookshop alternate to Amazon.com. I believe that my titles are available on Bookshop.org through my eBook publisher Draft2Digital (don't quote me on that, though). You especially saw the growth of indie bookstores in our Black & Latino communities, a much needed growth, at that. That growth has been seriously stunted with this pandemic. They might not survive the recovery, once this pandemic ends. This really makes me sad; they are a much needed resource in our community, considering how Black bookstores have been ravaged in our communities over that past two decades...
I'm still getting used to my new laptop. I've had to try to recover some fonts that I'd lost with my old laptop going kaput. That sucks for me, not only as a writer, but also for some of my graphics that I do for my book covers, and other projects. Not to mention, I had to get me a new video editing program to continue to produce "The Rough Draft". I'll let you all know how that works out...
Well, that's all for now. Hoping to keep you guys in the loop. The books are available, and ready for purchase. Please continue to support my works. I'll let you guys know what else I have coming down the pipeline.
Keep the fist raised!!!!
