Had a long busy day at my day job today. Feeling tired, but creative. I'd like to get a few pages written tonight before bed time. I've been half following an outline for this new book, I'd say its more of a general points I'd like to hit. It's nice to know where the story is going before it gets there. Last time I just wrote and got there when I got there. I'm more focused this time, and I'm hoping that's going to lend itself to a better finished product. Not that I think Marked isn't a great book :)

Gave the blog a whole new look last night, I'm liking the overall look now. Going to try and get some writing done tonight after the little guy goes to sleep. I'm hoping to knock out a few pages at least. I've had a part of the story in my head all day at work, and I hope I can get it right tonight.

Trying desperately to get Marked reviewed on some book blogs. It's so hard being a self published author, because you have almost no way to market yourself. I want to be successful, but I'm having a hard time getting to that goal.

Marked is officially back up for sale! I couldn't be happier about the re edit, it turned out great. I'm very lucky to have such amazing people in my life who are so willing to help me out.

I've been taking more time with Chased (book 2), I'm able to flesh out the characters a bit more which I think is going to be very beneficial to the readers. Hoping to finish writing it by the end of next month or possibly earlier.

I worked hard all afternoon, and I got the book formatted!! It should be up and available for sale again at some point tomorrow. Hooray for that, I can finally rest easy.
Formatting is almost done on Marked. There is a very distinct possibility that I may have it back up on Amazon by tonight. If I do, that would mean it would be available sometime tomorrow for purchase. I'm hoping to try and get it featured on some blogs, but who knows.

Got some amazing news today, the re edit of Marked is finished! I couldn't be happier, and I hope to have it reformatted and up on amazon again by the end of the week. I'm also hoping to find a literary agent soon. Its a daunting process of putting together packages and hoping that someone will like my book enough to represent me. If that happens, I could maybe get published by an actual publishing house. I'm excited and scared all at once, but I'm going to try it.
