So, as you well know by now, I started an Instagram page to start promoting my novel (I'd appreciate any follows and sharing of the account, by the way). Well, yesterday I got a random follower. Up to this point, it's been people I know, people they know, or the usual bot/porn accounts. But this one was different. They aren't in any of the usual...

Day 4 of dealing with kidney stones. My back hurts so goddamned much...
I've dealt with them before, but this time it's causing so much back pain. I can barely move.
Not much else to say really, so I'll once again remind you that I have an Instagram to try to promote my novel. If you would be so kind as to check it out,...

If I can't even get friends and family to read this damn story, what hope do I have reaching strangers? The thing is, I know it's good this time around. I have faith in my story, I just can't seem to convince anyone else to.
Tried something new today. I saw a video of someone making these and I had to try it. They came out so good! I present to you, mozzarella stuffed potato cakes. Also, I'd appreciate it if you checked out my Instagram. I'm trying to generate an audience for the novel I'm going to publish and I would be grateful for any help.

Quick follow-up to yesterday's blog. I now have an Instagram and Twitter account that I'm going to post on. It's going to be bits about the novel, and I guess now about myself. I'd really appreciate anyone willing to follow!

I've decided that I'm going to self publish. Which is going to mean a lot of work, I'm aware of this. I'm going to have...

Thinking about what the story is about, the world building that I did, and the characters I created... I finally came up with a title.
It's set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, where most of humanity has left the planet. It follows the descendants of humanity who stayed behind for various reasons. And it's actually somewhat descriptive of the protagonists, and a few other characters.
I...

It's a good start. A good friend of mine finished my book today. He liked it, liked the characters, some of the descriptions that I was a little unsure of, and he liked the ending. I know it's just one, somewhat biased opinion, but it's nice to hear.
Still finding mistakes. I don't have the best keyboard, and every so often words and phrases that...

Okay, I'm working through the editing process. So far so good. I'm finding a lot more than I expected that needs fixing, but that's okay. Reading through, I think the pacing is okay. Right as I was starting to wonder about it, something happened in the story to get my attention back, which is a good sign.
I was thinking about it, and I really...
