Lovely Weather

In the midst of the prettiest week of the year - it's sunny and 70! - I have a dark cloud hanging over me. Apparently there is a target on my back at work because I was sick enough to get a check up. Shocking how you can be given Sick Days, and then chastised for using them...

Regardless, I'm feeling a little better. Don't know where the bout of wooziness came from, but it seems to be dissipating. Writing WITNESS has been fun. I'm goin to the Yard on Sunday; supposedly it will be in the 80s! Life could be worse, but I wouldn't know it with weather like this.

    You're lucky to have sick days. I've heard news reports about the many people who are getting "flu-like" symptoms and don't even have sicks days they can use. Work, work, work,
    and no rest for the wicked!

Marketing

Is it ever too early to market your book? This question is retroactive to pre-publishing, too. I know very little about marketing. In fact, I guess I know nothing at all. My plan has always been, from the beginning, to get my story out there . To have people read it - that's the point to all of this. That's why this blog exists. And yet now I find myself searching for new, constructive ways to market this book. So far, I've been searching for an artist for the cover. I have it completely planned out, but I could screw up a stick figure, so I'll leave this to the pros. I'm wondering if it's too soon to design a website. Would a website even work for an unpublished work? I don't know. These are things I am looking into to help market my first novel. I've never had much use for an ego, but is self-promotion really egotistical? Or will it only hasten my prospect for publishing? Hmm.

As of Today...

Nothing is certainly new. My fingers are still crossed, regarding Marvel. I really think I put together an ambitious letter inquiry for them. Now, if I could just get them to want to see my writing... If not, I will do my best to overwhelm their mail department with inquiry letters for the next few weeks. Eventually, someone's going to write back. I still haven't touched UNIQUE . This has to be a good thing. This is the longest I have gone without opening up the story and fixing something. The movie script project has been without attention lately, too. How unfortunate is the only thing I can think of. For thirty pages I was bursting with energy and creativity. I think I really got caught up in the BLADE script, and that settled me down for a few weeks. I need to get the enthusiasm back! And then there's school. Astronomy is the only class that can retain my interest for an hour and a half. But it's good to have the history lessons refreshed in my mind. It's good t...
