My feet have really not touched the ground over the last week. The release date of ‘Bringing Billie Back’ is just over a week away and so it’s been crazy. So much to do: ebooks to upload, printing files to proof, marketing posts and much nail biting. And, I’m told that Christmas is just around the corner which I’m a little anxious about as I’d put the holidays on a back burner whilst getting the book ready. So, it now means that:
a) I need to write lots of cards
b) I need to buy presents
c) I need to buy a very large bottle of Bailey’s and drink it quickly <Note: other makes are also available, and I would drink those too>
One of the things I’m most looking forward to, once the book is released and out there, is that I will have a few weeks over Christmas and into the New Year to work on my 2016 writing plan. There’s so much I want to do next year, and I’ve no idea when I’ll get the time with other commitments, like work (I still work full time and write whenever I get a spare minute, which can include in the toilet – yes, too much information, or TMI as the yoof would say…) I need to record ‘Bringing Billie Back’ as an audio book, write another novel, write my non-fiction book and then blog properly, and not randomly, like I seem to do at the moment…
2015 has really given me the chance to learn so much about being an Indie author, and I love it. I’ve met some great people, made lots of new friends, and have so many ideas (they literally chase themselves around in my brain 24/7). So, here’s to 2016, starting off with a bang due to the new release. Which, if you’re planning on getting on the Kindle, you can find on the Amazon Store already as a pre-order (due out 13th Dec). So, please do visit the page if you’d like to take a peek!
