Ways to Follow Me, Subcribe by Email, and Stuff Coming Soon. . .

In case you hadn't noticed I did some updating and tweaks to this site. I've been pretty busy lately. So let's get started.

Ways to Follow Me

If you've been to my About page, you know that when it comes to things like Facebook, X (Twitter) and other social media sites, I'm terrible at them. I don't know why. I tried doing Facebook long ago, but I always fizzled out in a hurry.

Maybe because of my distaste for most social media platforms, I failed to realize there are other ways for people to follow me. I have an Amazon author page and a Goodreads page.

I now have links for both of these on my About page. I may try to put these links elsewhere on the site, but for now that's where they are.

I might try another form of social media in the future, but as of now I'm not quite sure. I do like Instagram and have a personal account that I follow people on. So I've been toying around with setting up an account there. If I do, I'll let everyone know, but as of now I don't. So let's move on.

Subscribe by Email

Also, you can now subscribe to my posts by email. You'll find a subscription form on the right sidebar. If you click on the hamburger icon (three horizontal lines) in the upper right hand corner, the subscribe form is first up. I've also set up a Subscribe page. When I post you can get them sent to your inbox instead of having to return to this site when you think of it. You can also subscribe by rss.

I've thought about setting up a regular email newsletter, but honestly, I don't see the point. I can't think of anything I'd put in a newsletter that I wouldn't write here on the blog. So it would be redundant.

I should have done both the follow links and the email subscription long ago, but for some reason, I just never got around to them.

Oh, but wait there's more!

More stories are coming soon! In fact, I've decided to start a series.

After I finished and published Snowed in with My Crush, I didn't have another project lined up. I sort of had a few ideas I'd been noodling but nothing concrete.

Then I thought of a title for a story. Which is usually not my first step in coming up with story ideas. It's more like my last. Anyway, I liked this title, a lot. Then, I began to wonder if I could come up with more titles similar to this one, and voila! I had a series. Not sure if I'll use my original titles or not when I publish the stories, but this should keep me busy for some time to come. I'm hoping that knowing what I'll write next will keep me more productive.

I've also uncovered my beach story that I talked about in a previous post. I didn't realize how near completion that story was. So I've been doing some work on it. Not sure which I'll release first, the beach story, or the first story in the series. I'll figure it out. I'm excited about all of these projects.

I'm still feeling much better and no more Lyme Disease symptoms since early February. Hopefully, that is all behind me. Now, I'm trying to make up for lost time. Which often feels overwhelming when I look at all the things I want to do and need to do. Because of that I'm working at getting better organized the whole way around.

It is my goal to get another story out this month. So stay tune, and you know, don't forget to Follow me.

Subscribe by Email is Going Away. . . For Now

  When I first set up this site, FeedBurner had a nice subscribe by email option built into the site. I really appreciated it. FeedBurner was by no means perfect, but then again, nothing is. Google eventually shut down the subscribe by email part of FeedBurner. Like many other bloggers, I searched for a replacement. Like many others, I opted to go with follow.it for this service. Again, this was not a perfect option, but let’s go back to nothing is perfect. With follow.it, they placed ads in the emails, which were not too obtrusive. I figured I could live with this for now. If I gained more subscribers, I’d either go for a paid version of follow.it to remove the ads or something else. I always subscribe to my own blog so that way I can monitor things and make sure they work. I also subscribe to a few other bloggers who use the same service. A few months ago, I noticed that instead of putting my post content in the email, follow.it instead sent a link to click on to read the post. I...

A Notebook of Productivity - An Attempt to Get It Together

  I’m always struggling to get my shit together and be more productive in life. Most especially my writing. If you’ve followed this blog for any length of time, then you already know this. I’ve talked about this in several posts on this blog. Back in May , I wrote a post about all the things I was working on. As always, I got lazy and didn’t really work on any of it. It was also back in May when I came up with the idea for my latest story, The Worst Man. That story sort of took my attention over everything else I was planning on doing, like learning how to build eBooks without an online converter, and other things I talked about in that post. As a result, when it came time to publish that story, I yet again used the Reedsy editor to convert my story to ePub. Which is fine. I love the Reedsy converter, and I was even thinking that maybe I’d just stick with it. Except when I went to do the final conversion, there was a hiccup on Reedsy’s side of things, and I didn’t get my ePub to co...

A Valentine's Gift Coming This Weekend

I’ve been trying to stay warm these past two weeks since we’ve had another one of those polar vortex things in my part of the world. In trying to do so, I’ve been hard at work on the next story in my Wedding Troubles Series. As of now, I’m not sure when I’ll get this story out, but it's coming along and I’m making lots of progress. During all this cold and snow, I thought of Valentine’s Day. Since I write romance, I figured this was a good time of the year to offer a little gift to everyone. So be sure to check back on Friday to see what it is!
