Quick update (Book sales, writing, new book, plans)

It's been a little difficult adjusting to the whole writer/author label. As someone who HATED writing 5 page essays for class, I feel like this is a huge step for me.

At the moment I'm currently attempting to write a minimum of 2.5k words a day for the entirety of November. It seemed really difficult at first but I'm starting to get the hang of it. You just really have to push everything aside and get it done. I've signed up for http://nanowrimo.org/ (National Novel Writing Month) to further motivate myself. If you ever wanted to write a book, now's the time!

On another note, my book sales for The Man at the Airport exceeded my expectations! I want to thank each and every one of you out there who helped make that happen. I wish I had a few more reviews but I'm thankful for that one negative one and the multiple great ones given to me via Twitter & Facebook!  I don't think many people are familiar with my previous work (which isn't published, there's pretty much a 0% chance anyone will ever find it) so I'm glad that I have a few new readers!

For those wondering: the second part of The Man at the Airport should be released sometime this month. I've been working on other projects at the same time so bare with me!

I also released another short book today called My Personal Trainer: Heart Racing Cardio Edition on Amazon for $2.99! I had a lot of fun writing this book so I hope my readers will enjoy it as much as I did.

As for this blog, I'm still not entirely sure what direction I want to take it. I'd like to help indie authors like myself with all of the basics, from writing to publishing and even a bit of marketing. I guess we'll see as things progress!

Also a quick shout out to my email subscribers! I hope you like your gift ;] If you aren't already subscribed to my email list, feel free to do so HERE. I usually post updates and occasionally give away freebies at any moment so if you're not already subscribed, you're missing out!

I hope all of you had a great Halloween, don't forget to brush!

That's all for now, have a great day/night everyone!!
