Future Plans

I've not been blogging for a while. I've also not been writing as much.

I've always written while having a job and often while attending college. But I wasn't really prepared for the exhaustion from chronic illness coupled with a promotion at my job. Most days, I come home and crawl into bed under the covers.

My mind is always going, but sitting down at the keys and actually "working" eludes me.

For the past year, I've been hosting "Writing Workshops" at my job. I've been at this over a decade now and information was hard to come by and understand when I was starting out. Not to mention that self-publishing had a really bad wrap as vanity press (which still exist, BTW).

Then the recession hit. Borders closed. Publishing changed.

Self-publishing has become more and more viable depending on the person. And depending on their goal.

I enjoy helping guide others and share information and wisdom learned from years of doing. I'm even considering creating some $0.99 eBooks or so with tips and tricks.

In the meantime, I'm using my spare time to correct past works piece-by-piece. New formatting. Typos and errors re-corrected. New paperback editions. New eBook editions. Possible combo issues.

If you're ever south of Annapolis, MD, maybe you'll stop by one of my workshops at the local library. :)
