If you received this newsletter twice today, and both versions were readable, YAY! It was broken for some readers via email, so I decided to send it again to ensure that everyone is able to access it via email if that is how they enjoy my newsletters. Thanks for understanding!Hello readers! It’s that time of the month again ~ new releases!! I definitely didn’t read as many March releases early as I did for February, but I’m back on track with my usual half-dozenish titles that I enjoyed.

Hello readers! It’s that time of the month again ~ new releases!! I definitely didn’t read as many March releases early as I did for February, but I’m back on track with my usual half-dozenish titles that I enjoyed. There are so many more books releasing this month that I look forward to getting to in the future, either on audio or in print when the mood strikes.

If you have completed a first draft of a book, congratulations! That is a huge feat in and of itself. You may be wondering what to do next. Search for agents? Write a query letter? Consider self-publishing on Amazon? Before you do any of those things, I want to draw your attention to the sixth word of this post: first draft. That's right, you have completed the first of what will be many drafts. How many? No one can say. But it will require several. Why?

Everybody wants to be an author. Okay, perhaps that is an overstatement. So, let me try again: A LOT of people want to be an author. I know this because I have had A LOT of people tell me this since I first announced my book deal. I understand this sentiment well. After all, it does refer to my chosen career path. When someone says they have a book idea, but then asks now what? I'm afraid that sometimes I can be a bit of a buzzkill.
