She wants me to write articles to get name recognition, all while working on Book Two and doing some more rewrites of Book One. I love it though. I like those kinds of expectations, although, being mainly a fiction writer, I'm a bit challenged by the article.

I hope your daughter is doing better and that you are able to get into your writing again.<br /><br />Re: self-publishing: Yes, I self-published a book, too, and had good luck to a certain point in sales: friends, friends of friends, family, etc., and even school visits; but it's hard to keep the momentum going when you really want to be writing. I'd prefer for this next book to be published through a traditional publisher and then still do my part via platform stuff.

I seem to do this kind of mind-blippy thing a lot lately!<br /><br />I haven't been blogging a lot either because of my daughter's problems, but I did happen on a post about the public domain pictures, and did what you did. I actually deleted all the April A to Z challenge posts because of the many pictures I had on them. Sigh. So now we know.<br /><br />And last but not least: CONGRATULATIONS on getting an agent. That is awesome. It's so much better, I've decided, to have the support of an agent and/or publisher rather than to go it alone with self publishing. I'm just NOT a marketer!<br /><br />Good Wishes!
