One is a collection of semi-autobiographical short stories, the other is collection of erotic fiction written under a pen name. I've gotten some good feedback on both (I put excerpts from the stories up on www.short-fiction.co.uk) and got rave comments! I suggest putting an excerpt up on that website--it gets quite a bit of traffic. They don't pay, but it's free advertising for your work. I think it's helped me sell a few copies. Good luck to you!Gloriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13167733025102920566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786588933094543332.post-431958923833386052012-06-19T10:16:03.515-04:002012-06-19T10:16:03.515-04:00Thanks, Diane!

...Thanks, Diane! I'm really excited about it! <br /><br />There is a fantastic, highly subversive article about self-publishing on indiereader.com. Here's a link: http://indiereader.com/2012/06/how-amazon-saved-my-life/<br /><br />About the cover... I agonized over it. I must have done a half dozen very different versions before settling on this. I was in a quandary... do I go down to the local gym and get some guy with great abs to pose in a cravat and jodhpurs? Do I buy a stock image of intertwined lovers? Paint something myself? What to do... what to do... Oh well, if it doesn't sell, I can always upload a new one. (Another great thing about doing it yourself.)Kate Worthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901533126781800249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786588933094543332.post-60859972325523716242012-06-19T10:00:07.144-04:002012-06-19T10:00:07.144-04:00I'm so thrilled that you didn't let reject...I'm so thrilled that you didn't let rejection stop you. Give that husband a big kiss for being an optimistic hero.<br /><br />Your cover is gorgeous. It alone should sell tons of copies! (It has sold at least one...)<br /><br />Best of luck!Diane Gastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770373530197339170noreply@blogger.com
