It needs to be done
Write a blog post
People are waiting for one
Write a blog post
You have nothing else to do
But write a blog post
It can only be you.
So, I’m now an official Indie author. My book hit the Amazon jungle on Sunday. I’m not sure how I feel about it, yet. It’s like taking a little piece of your soul and throwing it up in the air, waiting for somebody to catch it. And hold it. And like it, just a little bit.
The silence is what’s awkward. Not knowing if people will like it and hoping nobody takes it and trashes it into nothingness. It’s weird, really. I’ve been flung into the virtual abyss with nothing, not even a life jacket to keep me from going under…scary place, this cyber universe. But I did it to myself. I put myself out into the big wide world to see what’s what…no point in turning around and running back home. Might as well hang out a bit and see who gives me a nod.
So, I’m going to be annoying. I’m going to make a complete nuisance of myself and be in your face and stare at you until you get all uncomfortable and move around in your chair looking for the nearest exit. I may even follow you to the door…but I’ll be out here a while, so send me back a coffee or a donut or even a warm blankie, will ‘ya?
It’s a bit chilly out here…..
I am so proud of you! I just downloaded your book. I had to go to Amazon in the States, and pay them $3.98 Canadian, to get them to send a bunch of electrons back to Canada. As usual, I’m reading three books already. I’ll get to yours ASAP, and will send you my impressions. I’ll even try to do a review on Amazon for you. If all the stories are as good as ‘The Visitor’, it will be a delight. 😎
Thanks so much for the kind words and getting my book! I appreciate the support! I look forward to your thoughts…as always. 🙂
