Riding Through It

There's an expression that horse trainers use whenever a client's ride becomes difficult - "Keep riding through it." I've heard it at least a hundred times while riding my horse. It's a function of good horsemanship. If you give up or get off in the midst of difficulties, you might win the battle that day but lose the war in the long run. Learning to be really good at something takes persistence and time. Such it is with life; so it is with writing.

My publisher, Troll River Publications, just released a blog that I love! It is all about selecting a cover for a book series.

No matter what you do at work, whether it is selecting covers for reports, photos for blogs, design Web sites, etc., there's something here for you. If you think not, just enjoy the process of being creative!


Have to share. Hope you enjoy! Click HERE to read it.

Til later,

I've Written My First Season of a Series

To say I'm excited is an understatement. I am probably to the point of oversharing! But, for me personally, I've made a big commitment. No more "whenever the muse strikes me." My publisher fully expects a number of seasons out of me.

What do I mean by that? Troll River Publishing is currently taking one episode from Season 1 and posting it each week until all six episodes have been put up on retail outlets like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and Smashwords.
Every Tuesday until April 18th, a new episode of Snow Blood will be available for purchase. Check out my Author Page at TRP.

Then, the full book will be available at all the outlets above.

But, that's not all! I've committed to a Season 2 and more. So you probably can understand my excitement. I hope you will support my efforts and purchase Season 1. But more than that, I want to hear from you. I want to know what you think about Brogio, the very first vampire; his great love, Selene; Kane, the first son of Brogio; and most of all, Snow Blood, the beautiful white husky turned vampire who tells the story of their struggle to survive!

And one more favor. Please, write an honest review about Snow Blood and post it at the retail outlet from which you purchased it. Reader reviews are writers' life blood. We need them as much as vampires need blood to exist!

Til Next Time!
Carol

Episode 1 is live on Amazon, Kobo, and Smashwords.

http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebook/snow-blood-episode-1

For the next 6 weeks, a new episode will be released each Tuesday. I hope you will join in by reading this different tale with a tail. It has no reviews yet, so as you read the episodes (or when you finish all 6), please help me by leaving honest reviews on any or all of the above retailers.

In the highly competitive world of publishing, Indie authors are disadvantaged. We need all the help we can get. Your help is very much appreciated.

 Thanks, Carol
